New bug? Some NPC's missing from PhoneBook
miramis:
This bug could be caused by one of two things, an actual Freetime bug, or my game files are screwed.
Here is what I've discovered so far.
A new sim in a new neighbourhood created to test Freetime through normal gameplay with some maty mods and three types of CC (face templates, default eye replacements and default skin replacements). This sim met three npcs..The maid, the newspaper girl and the mail carrier girl. He became friends with the newspaper girl when she dropped by. She does not appear in the phonebook at all though, and neither does the Mail Girl.
The maid (Kaylynn Langerak if you're interested) is the only one that does appear.
I have tried pulling all maty mods - still the same. So I renamed the TS2 folder within My Documents and let it generate a new one when I started the game again. Still the same. So, I need to know now if anybody else has the papergirl or mail carrier in their phonebooks since Freetime, because if you do I will probably have to reinstall all of it. If you do have them in your phonebook could you check to see if any sims that have met them only since FT was installed has them also.
The interesting part is that the the 'Call Friends' option on a maty mod (phonehack?) includes the papergirl, so I know they are there somewhere.
ETA: changed mail carrier to newspaper girl
cassblonde:
I too have noticed this and have pretty much the same set up as you(default CC eyes & skins) my girl met the mailman and he called her(thanks to phonehack I think) but I could not call him as he didn't appear in either the regular call ... Sim nor the Macro ... call ... friends. To be honest I am not all that perturbed about it but it is nice to see I am not alone. Maybe EA decided to block them and the new NPCs to avoid trouble?
miramis:
If they are trying to block the npc's they're doing a poor job of it since the maid is still in the phone book. Thank you for responding cassblonde, makes me feel a little better to know they are missing in at least one other persons game. ;)
Aggie:
They're missing in my game, too.

I noticed that the hobby instructors don't seem to be callable either.
Don't know if this will cause problems in my game later, but to fix it I shift-click on them in debug mode and give them cellphones.
