JobData - school - public error

<< < (2/2)

I think I only have one non-awesome mod that relates to school, Carrigon's no school mod. But I had nothing of hers in my game for a while, until she updated. The problem was happening even before, so it isn't that mod. I suppose some mods may affect school in a non-obvious way, so they don't stand out. Sigh.

This time, I had hoped to avoid the customary "divide in half, and then in half, and then in half" until the stinker is found, that usually accompanies a new expansion. I suppose its my fault. I love to mod and remod the game until it plays exactly the way I want.

Oh well, this only happens about once every six months ....   LOL   ::)

Yup. Every expansion, I fresh install the whole game in order, installing patches along the way. I add the latest greatest and test it to bits, to find out what is under the hood. Then I ditch the test hood and add Pescado's updated mods, and other Awesome mods. After that I start searching the web for everyone else's updated mods. No mod goes into the downloads folder that isn't either updated or I hear from the creator that it is safe to use in the new expansion because no update is needed. After I get the mods in, I make a new test hood and use that until I feel it is safe to movan established hood into the game. [But with Seasons, I'm going to start all over, because everything needs to be built differently, to accommodate the Seasons features. So it's a great time to start fresh.]

As the days go by, whenever I add updated mods, I check with the hack scanner to catch conflicts.

But, invariably, I still find something or other that needs to be taken out of the downloads folder, and it isn't always a mod. So it seems like I'm always doing the half, and then half, and then half thing each new expansion. But it is a lot easier now than it used to be, because everything is organized.

I'll eventually find the culprit, when I have time to do the search. Right now, though, I'm installing programs and moving files from my old computer to my new Dell XPS 710 H2C, so everything is taking a back seat to getting the new PC up and running. That's why it took so long for me to realize you had asked a question. :D
