Blank want icons since OFB - should I worry?
cwykes:
I'm getting more blank want Icons than I like since OFB. I'm not sure if I have a conflict of some kinds hiding the icons, or if I have a really problem to worry about. Any suggestions? Anyone else got the same issue?
I can usually see what the want is if I hover over the icon with the mouse. When I satisfy it, something visible often rolls up.
It's not any particular want icon that's always missing, just randomly "talk to SimA", "play with SimA" or something like that. It isn't always the same sim either. It happens more when I've been playing a long time, but yesterday I had a sim with blank wants as soon as I started the game - not a new sim.

This is usually some kind of data file corruption, so yes, you should start to panic now.
ZephyrZodiac:
I was getting these too, and had to do an enormous amount of editing in SimPE, but it can be fixed if you get to it in time.
cwykes:
Oh Rats! I was really hoping you weren't going to say that... So what sort of editing are we talking about? I've done the deleting of unlinked memories already. I can go round that again. I think there may be a few duplicate Sims hanging around to get rid of. Remains of moving an occupied lot in and out of the lot bin a few times. What else should I look at?
This is the same hood I lost before when I managed to delete all the memories during a clean up attempt! I went back to a 3 month old back up after a suitable mourning period. It's a big well played hood, but since I don't have Uni, it's not overpopulated. I was hoping adding OFB would solve any potential size problems anyway.
ZephyrZodiac:
I'm not that sure, but deleting the SWAFs without an owner seemed to work in my case, plus all the unknown relationships - x towards unknown, or unknown towards x or unknown towards unknown. But if you've done that already, you need advice from someone much more awesome than me!
