Bon Voyage dissatisfaction
KatEnigma:
I redirected immediately too, and wasn't getting any lag until I started playing in a custom hotel. I built it with too many rooms, I don't know what I was thinking. Did I learn nothing from Uni? ::) It also has the Pirate Ship, and the only even slight lag I'm getting on any other lot is the one with the ship. I'm about to move them to a new hotel, demolish, and start over.
Moon:
Just wanting to clarify one thing.. although I think I already know the answer.
BV give us an ugly new Maxis family. Neat. I'll can them. BUT..... the locals are ugly maxis ones, and not spawned from custom name/face templates?
I'm thinking I'll wait awhile for this one... until the wrinkles are ironed out and whatnot. Vacation never did it for me, and I doubt I'll be too into this one.
Invisigoth:
Update: I bypassed the launcher right away. Even so I didn't actually play with the internet hooked up on this computer until today. Zone Alarm got an alert within 2 minues of loading the game. I didn't play for very long, I just tested a few things and exited. I only got one alert, but that might be because I played for less than 30 minutes.
Also, 80 new character files were added to the test hood when I added one vacation destination (even with all of Pes' norespawn/antiredundancy/notownieregen etc type hacks). Guess I won't be playing my main hoods until Pes puts a notouristregen hack out. My primary hood has 100 character files, I am not prepared to almost double the population for a damn vacation spot.

I've checked my ZA(pro) log and while EP6 was not listed in any of my controls, EP5 was - now zapped. Dumped the launcher for the exe shortcut but haven't played yet.
Also received the Prima Guide and found some interesting tidbits. Book in advance and you can save $$$ on airfare. A party of four leaving immediately will cost $2k. Book six days in advance and it drops to $1,200.
The guide claims that Sims can now walk to any lot they could drive (or cab) to. But they can't walk from home to, i.e. downtown or Bluewater. Does that mean they can drive downtown then walk between clubs? Where did we park the car, babe?
Apparently there is now a reversible community lot death option where you can exit the death lot without saving. Your previously dead Sim will be found at home, happy and healthy. I guess this applies only to the last controllable Sim on the lot. Which makes no sense.
If you're going to bring a Bigfoot home, keep him happy. He might make a good employee with 10 points in all skills and all the badges in gold. But cats hate him and he has a hygiene issue.
The Unsavory Charlatan apparently has a travel pass and can appear at any community lot anywhere. He's in love with Mrs. Crumplebottom and will attempt to hit on her. :o

No, it means that once you get to the subhood, you can walk to other lots. Then, the only way to get back to your home is to take a cab. Your car no longer exists, and the lot you first drove to now crashes on load.
Just guessing.
