BV problems - anyone else noticed these?
Ennarys:
I have the first two issues, but haven't noticed the third. Of course I haven't looked at any townies in SimPE lately either so it might well be there. I also had anti-redundancy installed. My sister and I have been experiencing an additional issue of stalling. The sound cuts out and everything stops for 5-10 seconds and then starts again. I have 3.25 MB of RAM and recently updated my sound card, and lost all my downloads to an unfortunate brain fart accident. It still stalls with no cc at all. I was just wondering if this is a known bug as well and/or if there is a fix for it.
jsalemi:
The stalling in BV is a known problem. There are various tricks to try to minimize it, such as making sure the game isn't auto-logging-on to the EA site, starting the game directly rather than through the launcher -- stuff like that. There's also been suggestions to turn down the graphics options, or make the UI solid rather than transparent. In the end, these ideas only seem to make the stalls shorter, but don't eliminate them completely. It's just a BV bug/problem.
Oh, yea, have you applied the BV patch? There's supposed to be a fix for one of the big causes of the stalling (if I remember correctly, it was a timer issue), and I do seem to get less stalls since I updated the game.

Yikes! :P
I figure this is as good a place as any to ask this: Are any of the BV hacks rendered obsolete by the official patch? I recently went through and made sure I had all the latest versions of the FFS hacks, but I wasn't completely clear on some of the manuals -- unsure whether I needed them or not, and whether having them could potentially be bad.
Much appreciated

No; everything in the BV hacks directory or BV director's cut is still ok for even a patched BV.

1.Never seen it in my game.
2.I have one Charlatan and I see him approx 1 time of 3 on any comm.lots.I use my nopickpocketrespawn mod instead Pescado's antiredundancy.
3.Noone of my vac.townies don't know Bigfoots or reaper.
I've not patched BV.
