Does the resurrection always result in a zombie? If so, it might be an 'evil' spell, thus unavailable to good witches. Also, if there is a good version of the spell (there should be, but this is EAxis...), check that the good witch has a high enough magic skill, and high enough alignment. ('Check abilities' on the spell book, skill and alignment are shown above the abilities list.)


The resurrection of the EVIL witch does always result in a Zombie.  It's supposed to as per EAXIS spec. 
There is supposed to be a matching spell for the GOOD witch which is supposed to result in a perfectly normal Sim being resurrected. 
It says in the spell book that the witch has it (I've trained them up and beyond actually - they get it at level 8 or 9 and I've trained them all the way to level 10).  supposed to take two each of three ingredients, I believe it was magic dust, moonbeams, dragon scales.  Made sure they had two or three of each and every available ingredient (in fact one of the good witches I tried it with has 10 -20 of each - they have a magic store and they manufacture a load of the stuff...) No matter whether I try it in my regular installation or the second one (yes I have two sims folders with all the neighborhoods, etc. that I rename for test purposes right now so I can test with and totally without hacks).  Neither one has the spell for the good witch.  doesn't show up with or without downloads in.

I believe that only evil witches can do the zombie spell.  It wouldn't be available for good witches.

I've had the school bus come on EA built apartment lots.



EHEM.... that's precisely it- I didn't WANT a Zombie.  Otherwise I could have just had the evil witch take care of it since HIS spell certainly worketh fine

Or use some mod (or just the testing cheats) that allows you to take control of non-playables, and tell the sim to wake up.

@FourCats: do you have 'nouniprotect' in your game?  I'm curious if that's affecting tenants as well...



No, what does that one do?   I downloaded the DC, and picked through it and put in the ones that I knew what they did, deleted the ones that didn't interest me, and held onto the ones that I wasn't sure about.


I ended up deleting the sleeping sim in front of the stairs, yet my sims still can't use the spiral stairs.  They stomp with pics of stairs in their thought bubble.  This is the DeBateau maxis family in a fancy apt building.

Are there any reports of the spiral stairs being borked? or did I break the game by deleting the sim?  She lives in a neighboring apt.


Edit:
Woops!  I deleted that neighbor before I read this:

I wonder if I should just move them out, and to a new home?

Alex:
Well, for the record, spiral stairs are surprisingly flawless in my game. And my, how I do love them. They make having basements MUCH easier, as you don't need to play around so much with awkward basement stairs placement. Plus they stack!  ;D

jsalemi:
Nouniprotect turns off the 'protection' for dormies, so their motives actually drop if they don't take care of themselves.  After a bit you'd see them sleeping in their food, on the floor, pretty much everywhere, which is why I was curious if you had it and if it was affecting tenants.

The spiral stairs in the game work great!  I'm probably going to dump the maxine spirals I have in the game (never was fond of her animation for them) and replace any I used with the EAxis ones.  Just wish sims could run on them.
