Invisible Sims -- anyone know how to beat with a hammer?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Cathy:
Iv'e had invisible ghosts and I confess that was creepy...

lmind:
I have everything updated (game, awesomemod) and have never had this problem until today.  Now I have 2 completely bugged sims who don't move and have no available interactions, and I have 3 invisible sims who seem to be interacting with everything (except the bugged sims) normally without problem.  It all started after one of my elder sims died (no one has died on this lot before).  This is complete crap!! Starting to hate this game... I have my whole legacy on the line here (with a freakin awesome lot!).

Help?? please...

I think I had this when I installed the last patch. Disappearing sims, and whats more, the unresponsive sims that I couldn't get to do anything. I don't know how I corrected it, other than what I've already said a couple of times: Delete cache files. Take your mods out. Run game in vanilla, create a new neighborhood, save it, and then exit. Delete cache files again. Put mods back in. Run the game with awesomeness.

Seriously, that's all I did. And, believe me, I did have this problem (I made a big deal about it in the bug thread). But, I did this, and the very next time I ran Sims 3, everything was perfect. So, in my mind, it's a fix. Now, I don't have any such troubles.

Edit: Oh, I guess I should also mention that I deleted all my previous neighborhoods, and I'm just playing with that new one I created. It was no loss to me, since I wanted to start afresh...

lmind:
Yeah, I definitely should've read your whole post before trying your solution.  I did everything you did - three times, then installed the brand new awesomemod and tried the same procedures again... Nothing. Unfortunately, I'm not willing to start from scratch, so I might have to scrap 2 hours of play (like, 2 human hours!) and go back to a previously saved version of my lot and pray this sh*# doesn't happen again.

I would be fine with invisible sims (I assume eventually they would fix themselves), but it's the unplayable ones whose Needs just keep deteriorating that I worry about :\

I had this problem with one of my sims, she was stuck as well, I don't know if this will work for you as it seems you've tried everything, but I moved her out to another lot and then just moved her back in, she became visible again and it hasn't happened since. I doubt though it will be as easy for you guys as it was for me though, sorry I can't be of more help.
