Your neighborhood is corrupt and has exploded in a bfbvfs

While I already have numerous people helping me, I'd like to ask one more question about awesomemod and the Sims 3 in general, since I haven't played this game to the depths I have been lately. I was wondering, when I'm playing my main household, if when I look into another rendered sims house, if they should be moving around or not. I see my neighbor comes home and just stands inside her house until it's time to sleep and then goes to work. They work fine on community lots and stuff, so it isn't a matter of AI not working at all, just wondering if they should be doing stuff visible to me at their house. When I visit their house they kind of just stand there too, occasionally talking to me. I only really ask this because I made a new city and I looked at a rendered sims house and they seemed to be moving about. That new city was without awesomemod by the way. Maybe I butchered the config somehow, and made it contradict itself and explode. Free will is off, but I read that they fixed free will messing with non active sims so that is moot. Turned free will on too, no luck, other than the new city without awesomemod. Sorry for not knowing the basics of this game and what should be happening, I'm just OCD and have to make sure my game is working the way it should be. Thanks!


This is normal.  It is called "Low detail mode".  Most of your neighborhood will slip into it when they are not being played.  Some of the sims will go about their lives, but most will go into this catatonic state to reserve CPU and RAM.

Oh, ok! I just had to make sure it was what was supposed to be happening. I appreciate the swift response. I shall be off now. Thanks again

I returned home to find a doppelganger of myself standing in my kitchen.
It's too bad this never happens in real life. I have an authentication protocol and everything for this, too.

Ever see the movie the Sixth Day, this kinda sounds like something in that movie happened... basically, you lost the game.
