Most bizarre problem of the day?
Talismana:
I know this isn't good, and I know I've heard of it happening before, but for the life of me, I can not recall what calamity this symptom is related to--My game has been crashing on and off. No, that's not so strange...BUT, a lot just loaded and what do I see??? 50 or so NPCs in neat, double rows all scattered about the lot. *blinks* Quite creepy.
Anyone?
ZephyrZodiac:
Do you have the nonpcspam hack in your game? since the problem was corrected in NL with the patch, if you have the hack in still, maybe it's causing a surfeit of NPCs?
Talismana:
Zeph, I apologize, I should have mentioned but I was probably in shock lol...I have neither of the EPs nor do I have the nonpcspam hack. Another thing...recently, I thought I eliminated another problem I was having by narrowing down and removing a hack but perhaps I haven't cured it after all. What the game was doing before, and prior to the crashes, was in all of my lots whenever I entered a house in which Sims were asleep I'd find the entire family still sleeping, only in the air just to the side of their beds :-\
MissDoh:
That can happen after you either install an expansion pack or a patch. Did you recently added the patch in your game? It happened to me after I installed the patch in Sims 2
ZephyrZodiac:
In my case my sims would all be outside, or else they'd be in the shower and forget to get dressed!
But the thousands of NPCs around on lots is something else! I'd definitely use SimPE to check on whether they are actually duplicated, and if so I'd make a note of all the file numbers and delete them from the character folder at once, before they start infiltrating everywhere! If they aren't showing up in SimPE, then I think if you move a lot in, and NPCs show up in drives, then you can just delete them all, save and exit, then reload - since they don't belong on that lot they shouldn't reappear ( says she with fingers and toes crossed and touching wood!)
