NPC Clones
Wedgetail:
Recently installed the 2nd patch, tested the game and sent a sim on vacation, when the sim went to a community lot I noticed that a local NPC would duplicate, there would be two of the one character on the lot. One would arrive then it's clone would arrive about 10 sim minutes later. I made the clones selectable and they are indeed the same sim.
It doesn't matter which vacation destination I send them to, a clone always appears on the community lot, but it's always one of the locals (ie: in kimono, islander, lumberjack), gender doesn't matter, it alters, it's never one specific NPC local :-\
So naturally I deleted the game and put in my back ups, same thing is still occuring :( is my game headed for a BFBVFS? :-X
Any suggestions as to what is causing this, how to fix it? Anyone else suffering from the same problem?
EDIT: Also just to clarify, downloads folder has been moved to desktop so it's not a hack, mod or CC causing this issue, it's definately in game, so that's one less thing to eliminate.

That happened to me once, in Three Lakes. Saw one of the lumberjack-looking locals chest pounding with himself ???
It only happened the one time, as far as I can remember. I've gone on vacations since then without this happening again. It would be nice to know what causes it though.
Wedgetail:
Well it occurs on every single vacational community lot in my game, I did pose this question on another forum and someone suffered from this problem with uni and I suspect that BV is just a morphed uni so I'm not suprised that this may be a recurring error brought back from crappy programming :-\
I was thinking of perhaps trying to download and install the uni patch again to see if that rectifies the problem but I doubt it will as it's already installed. I'm at a loss as to what to do about this. Not sure if it's an omen that I'm about to have a BFBVFS :-X

Ummm... 2nd patch..? ???
...I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure the '2nd' patch you speak of was released third-party and is in fact bogus... but then, I could be totally wrong..
...and I was. Just ignore this post altogether. ;D
...of course, that doesn't necessarily mean said patch didn't in fact break your game - that's what Maxian 'patches' do, right? :-\

You are in fact, totally wrong, the second patch is on the official site. Just for some ungodly reason, they dropped it off in a bunch of unofficial places first.
