Guess what happens when you deleteAllCharacters in downtown?
witch:
I thought I'd like a downtown with no Maxis downtownies, so, just like in Uni, I went to the downtown n'hood and typed the fateful command. I exited the game and went smugly to count character files. One it said, just the one backup character file. :(
So if you use deleteAllCharacters in downtown Nightlife, it will delete all characters in downtown, all characters in the main n'hood and all characters in the Uni n'hood too.
Back for the 3rd NL re-install in as many days...
Lucky I have backups.
RainbowTigress:
Very smart to have backups, especially with such a dangerous command as deleteallcharacters.
Twain:
hmmmm so deleteallcharacters.....deleted all the characters....how strange ;)
seriously tho, I am sorry to hear about your 'loss'
I learned with the Sims 1 that it is always good to keep backups of your game, it has saved me many nervous breakdowns, lol.
witch:
Sorry, I probably wasn't clear enough. Before Nightlife, if you went to the uni n'hood & deleted all charcters, it only deleted uni ones. If you deleted all characters in the main n'hood, it only deleted characters there, none in uni. This NL thing of dealing to all 3 places at once is new.
I thought others might appreciate the warning.
Hook:
I do appreciate the warning. I'd hate to have everyone deleted from all three neighborhoods. Thanks for finding out for us and letting us know.
I was thinking about deleting the downtownies and generating all new ones with one of the Normal Name hacks. Looks like this should wait for a totally new neighborhood.
