It is a puzzlement
jrd:
Open the Sim in SimPE and check the uni info. Probably the major is set to an illegal value.
Avalikia:
giggy - I don't think that would be right. I mostly have global mods, and the few object mods I have are either present in every lot or not present in any lot. In other words, if there's a problem directly relating to the mods, why isn't it happening to all my sims?
Kyna - The only crammyboy portal mod I know of is the juggling-related one, and I already have that. Is there another one I'm not aware of?
Jordi - I checked her sim description in SimPe, but everything looks normal. I even specifically re-entered her major and saved, but it didn't work.
Any more ideas? I suppose I could just finish out the semester without going to class, but what I'm worried about is the final and if that will be a problem.
twojeffs:
Have you tried forcing an error on the sim? She may just have a stuck flag or something that needs to be cleared.
Kyna:
OK, throwing a few random ideas out here. I don't know if any of these are your problem, but it can't hurt to check.
There were a few portal issues with Uni, but I believe they were fixed in later EPs & patches. Fortunately I never had any of the portal issues in my game, so I can't remember exactly what they were. I just remember reading about them at the time.
I did see this in Crammyboy's section of this board in this topic: "Portal deletion was fixed in the nightlife patch but any bookcase that was cloned before the Nightlife patch could potentially have this error. Most of them will not, but it does no harm to check" Do you have any downloaded bookcases in your game?
OTOH, if you have his portal monitor (which was included in the juggling zip) you would have gotten a warning when the portal went 'splodie. So if you never got a warning, your portal is probably ok.
Do you have nouniprotect in? In my game with that in, dormies were passing out by the portals and dying there until I took pity on them and gave them beds that weren't behind a myne door. And I put speakers outside to wake them up. It was irritating to see my sims not go to class because of a passed out dormie or tombstone in front of the portal. If this was the case though, you'd see the dormie or tombstone.
I don't know if stuck kicky bags are still a problem in the game (as I have kicky bag hacks to prevent them playing it), but maybe one of those is blocking access to the portal. Both TJ's college adjuster and Pescado's lot debugger have options to deal with stuck kicky bags.
Another idea: have you tried moving the sim out, then moving her back in? That sometimes works on glitched lots.
Avalikia:
Twojeffs - Forcing an error was the first thing I tried actually. Nada.
Kyna - Yeah, I've got NL and OFB fully patched and I haven't now or ever gotten a downloaded bookcase, so if it is a portal problem it's not the usual suspects. One of the dormies did die, but was in a bathroom well inside the lot at the time and there's no sleepers blocking the portal now (and in any event I've never had them not go to class when the portal was blocked anyway - they just got as close to the portal as possible before disappearing). I did think about moving her out and in, but I'd consider that a "drastic step". I was kind of hoping that someone would say, "Hey, I know how to fix that!" before I had to do something like that. Still, since it's a dorm I don't have to worry about buying back the furniture, and since nothing else has worked until now I might give it a try. I'll see if I can find a moment to do that with as little disruption as possible.
