Spontaneous Combustion

This may be too outdated to be here in the forum...if it belongs in RL please move it.

I have never played Seasons before. In the past two game-days, in one household, I have had three spontaneous (inexplicable) fatal or near-fatal fires. In the first case the sim was quietly checking his email--talk about a flame war! In the second, the sim was peeing--body temperature was green. The toilet caught fire, the sim ignited and died...WTF??? In the third, again with the temperature bar in the green, a flowerbed that the sim had just watered ignited and caught the sim on fire. This is beyond stupid! I have the shiny version of the warmthfixes hack and Sims2HCDU shows 0 conflicts. Is this the way it's supposed to be?

morriganrant:
No, it's not supposed to be that way, especially if the temperature is green. Before patch, and before warmthfixes, combustion was annoying and common, with both that should not be happening, even with just warmthfixes that should not be happening like that. You may not have a conflict but you may have something old causing it.

Downloaded something non-standard to cause that? Incidentally, there's no point in a sim EVER checking their email. No sim gets email unless they send one, and only when they send one do they immediately get a response back.

Yeah, I've had that happen in real life. Never heard of a sim doing it, though. Sounds like the work of the non-Awesome.

No, and I don't think this can, or ever has, happened. I place the blame squarely on tight pants.

croiduire:
Old as in what? Hacks or other things? Here are screenies of my hack folder. Almost all of it is FFS, with a bit from Ste, TwoJeffs, Monique and Inge. The hacks from ailias were added after this happened. All the FFS hacks are from the BV edition.













Edit: Didn't notice the textbox covering data when I uploaded. The hacks that can't be seen in that list are the census tool and clothing tool ones.

And dizzy. Sorry, dizzy. I love your hacks. I didn't mean to forget you.

Why do you have two enormous 1+ MB hacks for increasing the attributes of the cheap bed? Even if it was a duplicate of the cheap bed, it would not be that large! You should probably remove those, as they have been poorly made and thus do godknowswhat, given that they must include like a metric fuckton of garbage.
