Most bizarre problem of the day?
Talismana:
Hmmm...the strangeness multiplies:-\ Before I returned to read this thread I headed out to whittle away at my hacks and custom careers to uncover what I thought might be the likely culprit, and in preparation for removing my the careers I systematically checked each of my lots to ensure that no Sim was left in the limbo of a removed custom career...this is what I found...
A) all the invading NPCs (all grocery delivery people btw) remained at the original house, despite the removal of all DLs, in light of what you've all told me, that's not so surprising, however...
B)...during my tour of the neighborhood I noticed that at one other lot Another delivery person lurked in the shadows >:(...and at a third lot Two Additional lurkers :o
...also...
C) as I entered another, unrelated lot the game crashed yet again but allowed me to load just afterward.
MissDoh, I did install the patch when all this strangeness began, the Sims hovering beside their beds silliness, but it was in response to the game acting up.
Zeph, I would dearly Love to do as you say but, although I have SimpE, I've never worked up the courage to actually make use of it. I'm only Just beginning to get a handle on this game as I was fairly computer illiterate when I purchased it. I'm sure the process is too complicated for me to ask you to outline it? Do you think I'd be safe simply teleporting the vermin off the lot? Or should I attempt a clean up even though I've not the first clue what I'm about?
Radio, you may have something there. This lot Does have the daily gardener and it did seem to begin to go wonky not long after DLing that hack....but come to think of it my NPC's aren't gardener's sooo, I dunno...heh, TY for the pic though, and the smile:)
TY Inge, I'll drop by for the teleporter and get to zapping:)
So, the general consensus seems to be that I must bulldoze the lot regardless. That's truly a shame, it's one of my nicest houses...ah well. One last question, and this goes out to 'Anyone' also--do you think all the recent crashes are related to this...or shoudl I be worried?
I do appreciate everyone taking the time out of their day to help me out. Thank you all:)
Andygal:
sounds like you have a broken portal. Somebody made something to fix the problem and Crammyboy made a hack to stop it from happening again. You can get both at MTS2. Crammyboy's fix isn't here because the problem was fixed by Maxis with NL but since you don't have NL you will have to go and find it.
Talismana:
Thank you for the road map Andygal! Very much appreciated as has been everyone's aid. You all must be careful else you'll soon earn JM's home the rep of a warm, fuzzy place;)

I thought it already was! Apart from the lip-ripping, that is!
The portal fix may be the solution to your problems, but be very careful to read all the instructions first, as I believe you only have one shot at it.

Lol, hey I am new to this hack/mod things, be nice
I thought I was, I was sincerly concerned about you! If it hadn't been for MokeyHokey, who first opened my eyes to hacks and mods, I'd still be where you are now! ;D
MissDoh:
Of course you are nice Zephyr and a precious helper ;)
