A whole new level of borked! Yay. Points Break Primitive?
Strangel:
Okay.. this is beginning to piss me off. I installed Family Fun, played for a day.. everything somewhat okay, no big issues aside from a small case of sudden lag.
Today, I go to change someone's appearance, and when he steps away from the mirror, I notice HE HAS NO FACE. The SIM's face is fine, the little avatar is nothing but chest and hair, no face, no neck. In fact, it's not even black, what I'm seeing is the hair BEHIND the spot where his face should be. I go "hoshit" and send him back to the mirror to fix it.. and the face that pops up in the "change appearance" menu is blank of all makeup, all accessories, and has a default (skin default, not Maxis default) pair of brown eyes. So.. I figure I'll exit lot without saving and he'll be fine, right? Go off to work on my Legacy house, same neighborhood, and send that sim out on a date with his intended. Midway through the date, Sims freezes. Not to mention the Gypsy actually *rang the doorbell* of the restaurant they were at..
I hard reboot, restart, boot up sims.
Figuring I'll get them both dressed in their formal for the storyline, I go into the intended's house, where everything seems normal except for the skinny pregnant woman (I'd played her house since the last save of this one, she'd given birth there). I get him dressed in formal and in doing so I notice something a bit wonky in the coloring of the makeup he's wearing, so I send him to the mirror. Big mistake. HE comes away with a no-face icon. Jump out of lot without saving, exit sims completely.. jump back in.
Now, he's got a face icon again.. but is constantly erroring. It says "Hit Break Point Primitive". Reset does nothing but pop up a new copy of the same error, cancel does the same, and delete removes him AND the error.
Since he has a roommate, I have her summon him back. Error - Nathanial is HBPP. Repeat, this time saving the lot and exiting sims.
Reboot.
Restart sims.
Re-enter lot where roomie is alone and doing fine, summon back... Error. >.<
Is this whole thing doomed? I have NO idea where some of the game discs are thanks to sharing them with the 12 year old simmer in the next room, I don't think I've changed anything in the game files aside from adding some clothes (although I did delete some hairs in BodyShop yesterday), I've tried all the usual suspects for deletion (cache, etc) and still nothing.
..and I can't turn off the damned tutorial tips thing either.
Edit: I have everything up to Seasons, haven't installed Seasons yet. That was the plan for today, but then THIS happened.
Edit again: Grabbed the error logs in the hopes it would help and give a speedier answer. One is the intended, the other was the first sim to lose face, whose lot I have not reentered.
dizzy:
I hate to say this, but you might need to uninstall/reinstall Pets.
Strangel:
Thanks for giving me a starting point.. Oh and my Pets isn't patched. Neither is my BodyShop.
Going to let this scan run and then I'll uninstall, reinstall, replace the hoods and see what happens.
Strangel:
I know.. double posting is bad. But I thought I'd update.
I uninstalled, reinstalled, then realized I should have probably opened SimPE to read his file in the first place. I seem to be suddenly getting run rampant with No Character Data (red thumbnail) files. Last I checked, there were NONE. Now, I've got red thumbnails for characters I created, dropped in a lot, and haven't even played past a day yet.
Two are even showing as Unlinked Character. Any ideas?
