My first playing experience with Nightlife - AND Error Log :P
baratron:
The most screwed up thing about "cheating" -
Mitch & Max are in a committed monogamous relationship. They are engaged.
Mitch is a TV soap star. He has fans. Lots of them. They have crushes on him. One-sided. He's never even met these people before.
Mitch & Max went on a date, where they were spotted by some of Mitch's fans. As a result, the fans threw a wobbly because they saw him "cheat" on them with his long-term partner that he lives with.
Now, this was in an unpatched game, so I'm not sure if this behaviour's been fixed by the patch or not. But that's nothing short of fucked up! It was a CRUSH - one-sided! It's fair enough for the fans to throw a wobbly when they realise he's in reality involved with someone, but it shouldn't go down in his memories as "Was caught cheating by sim X"!! GAH! >:(

Baratron: Believe me, I understand what you're saying and I agree totally with you. But the patch doesn't fix this and I highly doubt that Maxis will fix this because I don't think they consider it "broken." So we have to rely on mods made by the community. This was discussed over on MTS2, and LizzLove was considering making a modified jealousy hack that would help with the longterm committed couples, so that the jealousy in the game would behave more logically. But I don't know how soon either she or JM will get anything ready that we can use.
ZephyrZodiac:
I wonder what it says about the psychology of the Maxians if they don't consider that broken? To me, it's like crazy stalkers getting fixated on someone and offing their husband or wife in the hope that somehow they'll be able to take their place, and that is sick behaviour!

I'm fairly certain that I patched my game. I do have the patch downloaded on my machine, and I thought I patched before I started putting downloads in and what not. But I could have easily been confused, because I also patched my sister's game for her, and I might have thought I patched my game too. lol. Is there any way to check to be certain, or do I have to try and run the patch again?
If you run the game in debug mode, it should display the version #. Do it in neighborhood mode before you load the lot, then when the lot loads the version # should show in the upper right corner. Mine is v1.2.0.337 and I have the NL patch.
