Two stange things with my version of NL
nothingbutsims:
If my Sims are standing still, they will suddenly slide across the floor about 1/8 of an inch - drives me crazy. Also, whenever I go downtown, all the downtown NPC's just stand there doing nothing, as if free will is turned off, but it's not. You can approach them and talk with them and then they will "come alive". Anyone else have either of these problems?
Motoki:
Are you by any chance running the Less whiny hack? If so, yank it out as it causes poblems with sims losing their autonomy.
linolino:
yes, it seems like there are some hacks in your game. disable the custom content in the initial screen, then test it again
daysies:
MaxoidTom would attest to this as he has come into our chat and we asked him about the very same thing:
[19:43] <daysies> and one sim like jumped one square or so
[19:43] <LyricLee> i mean not a huge deal and not a big impact on game play, but the animations skip like you said
[19:43] <daysies> yes, it's more like "skipping"
[19:44] <MaxoidTom> we added some optimizations so that sims that are not "on screen" do not animate all the time or do things. however, if there is a global hack interfering with that, then that could cause problems.
this particular thing happened while i was at the 50's diner. there were so many sims there but i had only 2 playable ones and zero hacks (as i started over with Nightlife). my 2 sims were dancing The Smustle (and their motives were locked using the motivedecay off cheat). when i was observing around the room, that's when i noticed some sims were kind of "skipping" and some were just standing there.
nothingbutsims:
I did end up removing all hacks :-[ just to get the game to play correctly because my Sim couldn't even talk to another sim on the phone without the game locking up. So now I have to listen to my Sims whine again? Good heavens!
