uni sims regressing (losing extra want slots)
Brynne:
Oh, man. Okay, this possibly explains more mystery problems I just had. I moved a family into a lot and got an error message, probably the same one you did, Rainbow, about CAS and "import lot" or something. My elder sim's wants would not stop rolling, and my toddler's wants were blank. I have since moved them out, and now the toddler has "no character data", dammit. Trying to figure out how to get him back, now. May try posting again in my "no character data" thread.
I moved a new family I just created into another house, had one of my Uni sims visit as well as his teen-age brother (I was setting them up for possible romances with members of the new family), and I was treated with the message that "Joel has class in one hour" (Joel is the teen), and that Justin-just-missed-his-final-exam-better-not-make-a-habit-of-it-oops-that-last-semester-didn't-go-too-well-for-Justin and now he's on academic probation. Okay, firstly, this was in Pleasantville on a residential lot, not in the University neighborhood, and, secondly, Justin had a 4.0 gpa.
Argh, I can't take anymore!

Brynne, if you have a back-up of the neighborhood where the child still has character data, you can do the following:
Go into the back-up characters folder and copy the kid's file
go back to the newer folder where the child has no data and paste the older file over the newer one. The child should now have the character data back.
Hopefully you have a back-up that isn't too old, the child should be around the same age in both folders. I did it this way with a PC-adult and it worked. I asked TJ whether I now FUBAR'd my game, but he said it's alright to do it this way.
Brynne:
I'll thank you here, too. ;) Just read the other thread. Luckily my backups are very recent, so I didn't lose anything important. It's gotten to the point that I need to backup after each successful game session. Which reminds me of something I need to do...
veilchen:
You're welcome here too :D. It always seems to happen to my favorite pixel people. I don't want to lose anyone out of my village, they are all pixelated versions of real people. I call this village my "home-sickness cure". It's not the same as being there, but it helps. The village is a replica of my home, by the way.
I'm having a hard time typing, I'm in at a party, using my brand-new labtop. My son bought it for me, I'm still in shock.
RainbowTigress:
You are so lucky, veilchen!
