I get one that says "missing mini-partner." I had never seen that until recently but I never used fixall much either. ???
J. M. Pescado:
It's a technical term. Basically, sims are often stored in double-entry, with the result that romantic oppositions are stored in quadruplicate. These two records can diverge due to crappy EAxian coding, in particular, causing the bug where a sim cannot remarry after the death of their opponent, because the "Mini" record, used to track sims as they move between neighborhoods (Main & Vacation) incorrectly indicates that they still have an opponent, while their full "SimDescription" record indicates that they don't, causing the game to believe that the sim DOES have an opponent, who didn't accompany it to the vacation/mainworld. The opposite case, "missing minipartner", is where the Mini-record indicates no opponent, while your sim DOES have one, which is not presently linked to any visible error condition on its own, but still represents a data discrepancy found at the same time we look for other errors. A "dangling" entry is one where the relationship is not bidirectional: One record indicates that sim's opponent is some sim, but that sim's record doesn't corroborate this.

EDIT: I also want to move my families and houses to Riverview from Sunset Valley anyway because there's a lot more space there. So knowing if transferring families is safe would be helpful.
Transferring famblies across neighborhoods is safe, with a few caveats: Relationships outside of the transferred household will be lost. The Twallanian Porter Device supposedly can allow you to mass-move extended famblies across different households, but as this is not an AwesomeWare product, we can't provide support for it, as I have no idea how or if it works.
Thanks for your help. =] And I hadn't heard of the Twallan Porter device, so I tried it out and it's saved me a lot of time in transferring my families so they don't lose the relationships. Perfect. And now I know I can safely uninstall the awesomemod whenever I need to, then I guess that's a bonus for keeping it. :)
Freezerburn:
When I'm running a sim through Supreme Commander, I found out that the game lags for 2-4 seconds (real time) for the sim's next action, but when I play a sim that is not running Supreme Commander, it works fine, only the sims running Supreme Commander that makes the game lag for the next action, is this normal?
J. M. Pescado:
Can't reproduce. Must be a side effect of your computer sucking. What do you mean by "lags for the sim's next action"?
