uni sims regressing (losing extra want slots)
dusty:
I moved a newly graduated couple into a house back in pleasantview - one of the maxis ones that was originally in the unoccupied lots bin. The game initially crashed, and when I reentered it, they have both regressed to having only 4 want slots and only one want lock. Lot debugger can't upgrade them (I guess because they're not pre-uni sims). Does anyone know if this is fixable? ???

Nope. This is the infamous "Bomb That Destroyed Happy Valley". If you use a pre-Uni lot, you run the risk of blowing your neighborhood to smithereens, especially if you move into it before modifying it in build mode.
dusty:
Oh dear. So are my other families also screwed now?
RainbowTigress:
I had a similar problem. I had to move this family out because of a bug with the school bus. She did not have the option to get on the bus at all, altho her sister did. So I moved them to the family bin. I bulldozed their house, and imported the same house from another copy of Pleasantview. This was an empty house except I packaged it with Inge's moveout objects stayer so not all the objects were sold. No sims though, and this was after I installed Uni. When I moved the family back in, I received an error (with debug mode enabled) about CAS or something, I am not sure. Daniel Pleasant had only 5 want slots, and Mary-Sue only had 4. They each had one want lock. The teens had 4 each but they were blank except for the ones I had locked before they moved out. I used the Aspiration adjuster from the Insimenator to add the want slots and locks back, and I used it to refresh their wants several times. I was concerned at first, but eventually they got straightened out. With the girls, I couldn't get their blank wants to roll over, but the locked want was to reach charisma level one. So I sent them to do that, which didn't take very long, but when they did, all their wants came back as normal. Everything seems to be progressing normally now, and the one that had problems with the bus is now able to go to school normally.

I am sooo going to delete every single house in the lotbin, just to make sure I neverever run into this thing. And, I am going to never ever use the premade hoods, and just play with my own.
Man, reading these forums can really make me paranoid. :o
