The ffslotdebugger has an option to Fix AWOL Headmaster.

Thanks I have it, but the rtfm says tested on TSU.  Is it OK if you don't have University?  I guess it probably is, but since I don't actually have HM bug at the moment I thought I'd wait for an answer.


Disclaimer:  I haven't looked at the code myself.

Fix AWOL Headmaster is one of those functions that *should* work ok with or without any EP's.  What it does it delete the headmaster scenario controller, which is probably created when you invite the headmaster and should go away when the scenario is over.  The reason the HM scenario is bugged has to do with the controller already existing, so you can't invite another HM.  Or you can invite him but he never shows up.

If you have a lot where your HM is glitched, simply try it.  Put the FFSLotDebugger on the lot, click on AWOL Headmaster, and see if your problem is fixed.  If everything works, you're probably good to go.  If stuff messes up, for goodness sake don't save the lot! :)  And delete the FFSLotDebugger before you save, if you do.  I'd recommend not trying to click on other options unless they pertain to the version of the game you're actually running.

Now, this is considerably more risky behavior than I'd normally advocate, but it's what I'd do in the same circumstance.  I'm not saying you can't possibly cause your computer to catch fire by doing this, just that it's very unlikely. :D  Just be prepared to exit without saving if things aren't working right.

Well, really you can try almost anything if you are prepared to exit without saving!  After all, if your game has something like a corrupted lot which you try to load, it crashes to the desktop which is a bit more violent than just exiting normally, but your PC doesn't normally end up in pieces!

...but criticism on this forum will probably not be as visible to the designers, who visit the official bbs....

Surely visiting the bbs is above and beyond the call of duty.  :P


Maybe this is the reason for our troubles with Maxis. Their brains have all been liquified by the BBS! Quick, MaxoidTom, save your coworkers! Direct them here, where they're safe!

I did a major edit on my earlier post.

I noticed tonight...my Sims on my Uni lots do NOT have their facial animations back when speaking on the telephone.

As well, I'm still getting the message that so-and-so are no longer best friends when one of the Sims is deceased.

I'm so majorly disappointed....

:( :( :(

??? I havent been to uni yet I have a sim in the  bin waiting .but post suceessful patch .I have noticed two new bugs one is annoying the other disappointing. the annoying one is multiple gardeners showing up.I had my sim Call for a gardener and one arrived immediately .she walked into the house. I didnt think any thing about it at first I thought she was headed to the back yard to take care of the plants. nope she sat down to eat instead,in comes another  and another  and so on all acting like visitors! I used the insimenator to delete them after ending the services of the gardeners. I sent sim to the phone had him hire a new gardener the bug thank fully didnt reproduce Leo the gardener showed up and said the plants were in wonderful condition and left as is normal no more gardeners showed up thank god! the second is my sims no longer have shadows like they did pre patch in the sunlight and Lamplight . and  I cant see my sims reflection in the mirror......Bummer :(

When/If HM bug comes back I will do just that unless I've heard for sure that it's really bad idea in the meantime.  HM code probably didn't chang between TS2 and TSU.....   

 I still want a proper Maxis patch though....
