Hacks are burning me.. Help..

(1/3) > >>

jonayla:
I'm posting it here, though I feel like this is too retarded to ask..

I have installed tons of hacks to remove stupid behaviors or actions or stuff. And now I'm lost.

Something is glitching and I can't live without them.  :'(

I'd like someone to help my stupidity. What should I remove? I have read the manuals (of the ones that come supplied with one) but I can't understand which ones could prevent others from working. I have tried to remove some of the hacks, but it would take forever (and a lot of restarting the game) to test all of them.

The only real problem I see is when my teenage sims applies for college (and should get all the scolarships based on skill points), it gets one award, then the game glitches for a second, it's sort of a jump bug. The phone is back in its place, the sim is standing there minding its own business.. When I call back to college after that, the rest of the scholarships are granted.

So, I've decided to come here and beg for help. I need help from the wise (wo)men:

Do you see what I don't?

I've got Sims 2, University, Nightlife, FFS, GLS, Open For Business, Pets, Celebration Stuff, Seasons  and H&M installed and I have patched em with Maxis patches..

Gwill:
That's a lot of hacks.  To you have them all bundled up together like that or are they in subfolders?

Edit:  Having read through the list I don't see anything that I immediately know will conflict.  I don't think it's the phonehack, since that's one of the most tried and tested hacks on the site.
noundeaddormies.package and nouniprotect.package are perfectly compatible.  One just keeps dormies from being unaffected by starvation and sleep deprevation, the other prevents zombies from moving into your dorm.

Have you tried Paladin's hack conflict detector?

Also, you need to get an error log.  I think you can get instruction in the sticky FAQ.

I know that's a lot of hacks. :) I'm suprised I'm only getting one obvious glitch :D

Bundled up like that in Downloads -folder. I keep other stuff in their own folders like this:

Downloads
  hackity.packages
           - Objects
           - FloorsWalls
           - Facefiles (face replacements)

I had them in their own Hacks-folder but I figured it would be better if they were in Downloads.

HAHA! Found a little critter inside my Objects -folder. There was a newscolarshippontiacsomthing and a reward of some kind -packages in there. I removed it, so let's try again.

I also have some kind of a college adjuster (the phonebook). That hasn't given me any trouble before so it can't be that..

My instinct says that if you don't know what it is, you don't need it, so chuck it. (well, pull it out & see what the hell happens)

Saw what the hell happened..

New_College_Scholarship_Pontiac1979.package and the other one were the ones that messed up my system.

Meaning: All the hacks are good and I can keep them.  ;D

OH happy joy joy the day of sunshine.
