McDermotts can't return home from France
Ellatrue:
It might help to go back to the beginning. Can you think of anything you might have changed, or any mods you might have added/removed, patches installed, etc since sending the family on vacation?
Tangie:
Just wanted to mention that this happened to one of my saved games, too. It was SV, not Riverview, but my Sim couple got stuck in France and I was never able to get them home even after trying all kinds of things. I tried reset <name of sim> & reset world, I tried to send them home early and I tried to let the game do it when the time was up, but the main 'hood would never load and I would end up back in France with no sims to control at all. One time I selected another household to play after that, which was interesting. I didn't try to save it, of course. Anyway there's a kajillion complaints in one or more threads over on the EA BB about the game eating players' sims while on vacation. OM NOM NOM
Other SV saved games worked fine for me, so I can only conclude that Pes is correct, this particular 'hood turned into a BFBVFS. I did get one suggestion from someone on the BB that I now use - if I ever have to save a game while in a vacation world (which I usually tried to avoid doing in the first place), I use the "save as" command so that I don't lose my whole neighborhood. Of course if the 'hood is about to asplode this would just be a temporary fix, but it might give me a chance to save some things from that game before it goes up in a big fiery ball.
Cathy:
You mean he had to stay in Champ les Sims forever? ???
anachronista:
You may be on to something, Ellatrue. I think it happened when that EADM patch came out.
All my other games are working fine as well, Tangie. I might try one or two things before totally giving up, but it's probably time for Pescado's nuclear option.
After raising those cute boys up, roping in one bride, (she had commitment issues) importing another and getting them both pregnant.....
Oh, the humanity!!
Thanks, everyone.
J. M. Pescado:
As a last resort, you can send your save and I will take a look.
