time not working correctly in lot
ell:
Ok I did more online digging and I FIXED it! Woot!
I came across an entry somewhere where someone posted they had an invisible fire problem.
When I typed in the testingcheatsenabled true I got an error.. I looked up the error and it mentioned the trellis. Aha! I went back onto the lot, deleted all the trellises, saved and then exited and re entered the lot. The whole fence line was ablaze!!!
Called the fire department who put it (and the kid's rear end cuz I could not for the life of me get him to come away from the fire lol!) out, saved the lot and voila! Time running normally again.
How exhausting! I'm wondering now if lightning will strike that trellis everytime. It looked really cool as a privacy fence along the front side of the pool.
I'm thrilled though, this lot is 4th generation, going on 5th for this family. I all ready almost lost them once when I.. ahem.. accidentally deleted the eye file for that family. lol
Thanks for letting me run at the mouth here til I figured it out. I was really worried for a bit there.
Oh, and then this morning my game wouldn't load AT ALL. Talk about panic inducing. I saw about deleting the group cache file and it worked like a charm. :)

Attach the trellis error for further study.

I had the same problem with one of my lots not long after installing seasons. I didn't actually get a fire though but I couldn't get the error messages to stop with reset so I used the delete option so I guess thats why. The game ran normally after I hit delete so I removed all the trellis bushes and I've never used them since, I remember thinking at the time they must be a badly made custom tree but nope there Maxis ::). Shame I really liked them.. The Insiminator has an extinguish all fires on lot option which I think I used afterwards so that might be why Ive never had any invisible fires there since, not sure if it would work on them or not though. anyway heres my error log in case the original poster doesn't come back.

I posted a while back re:trellis' and invisible fires. I do not have access to they computer that game was played on, so I don't have any error logs to post. I used the stuckobjectremover to nuke them. I too am wondering what is up with the trellis'.
