Radioactive Bathwater and Disco Pillows

(1/3) > >>

KevinTMC:
I've been poking around these boards for some time and haven't yet found mention of a problem that just cropped up in my game.

My bathwater has gone radioactive and there are disco pillows on the beds.

That is to say, there are a couple of weird color problems that arise when sims use the bathtubs and beds on my lots. When they take baths, the bathwater glows green and greenish-yellow around the edges. When they get into bed, the pillows start shifting from one bright, disco-dance-floor-color to another: blue, then green, then a bright off-white, and so on.

The neighborhood is one I started in original TS2. I imported some nice Japanese-style lots, which seem to work without a hitch (though it looks kinda funny to put western beds and dining room sets and such into them). I also installed various interesting-looking sims that I found on MTS2, many of which did not work as advertised (new entries would usually show up in CAS, but with default clothes and/or hair and/or skin, or even identical default faces), even when they said that all accessories were included, and even when I tried to install all the accessories listed myself. [/whine]

Then, a short while later, I added UNI and NL. I started my Downloads folder from scratch when I did this, reinstalling everything that had come packaged with the custom lots and sims. (And now my Downloads folder is nicely organized, since I actually kept track of what files came from what package this time.) I also installed the NL version of the Director's Cut, and modded up with numerous other Awesome hacks I found around here (there's a few non-Awesome ones in there too, but none that have an obvious connection to how non-custom items appear in the game). Somewhere in the process of doing all this, the graphical glitches started.

Anyone have any insight into this?

jsalemi:
Sounds like you installed something that needs the Color Enable Package. You can find it here: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=92541

KevinTMC:
A good thought...but I do already have the latest CEP installed.

Theo:
Did you changed your graphics environment, such as a new video card, or installed new drivers?

KevinTMC:
Nope, nothing changed on the hardware or driver ends.
