Cleaning up Characters?
jsalemi:
That's what we're trying to tell you -- you did things wrong, there is no real fix, and your hood is probably beyond redemption. And rude is the normal response to people who keep saying the same thing over and over and ignoring (or arguing about) the advice they're getting.
Kigan:
Hmm...I don't see myself repeating things. Expanding on them, yes. Giving more details, yes. Repeating, no. The fact is, things were done differently than are being assumed by you, and when I try to explain it, suddenly I'm being repetitive and argumentative. Then I ask questions completely different from what I've already said, and get no answer because you are too busy talking to me like I'm clueless to listen to someone who has created a version of the sims 2 on his computer that has many fixes EA and Maxis refuse to make. And the ONLY reason I don't have that version is because he is afraid of possible long term effects or, more recently, SecuROM.
You see, I took the advice of someone who can delve into programming and fix it. He knows how. And on his computer, he has fixed what he calls "idiotic and stupid mistakes" that they made.
Now, I will repeat one thing, and that is the question I stated earlier: What about the large number of character files hurts the game? I don't understand it all like my friend does, so I don't get what causes the "BFBVFS" as you have named it.
Ness:
If you value your friend's opinion and skills so highly, why aren't you talking to them instead of people at MATY?
If everything that is said to you is going to be rejected with "but my friend said...", what really is the point of continuing to ask questions?
Kigan:
Because he has more important things to do than fix this problem of mine. Like, I don't know, his job. Besides, right now he is busy working on something that will get rid of that POS SecuROM.
The reason I mention what he said is to give you the entire situation, including the changes he made to the less than perfect method I've seen here of merging the neighborhoods. I figure that way we don't waste time with "You shouldn't have done this or that" because of knowledge you have, which isn't the same as the situation of my game. I can see how that worked like a charm, since now we are arguing over something pointless instead of working with the information I'm TRYING to give and attempting to fix my game.
jsalemi:
Oh, so you'd rather bother people who also have, oh, I don't know, jobs, who do this out of love of the game, on their own time, rather than bother the person who really fucked up your game in the first place with his oh-so-perfect method of merging hoods that he won't share with anyone else in the world? Unlike the modders and others here who do share their knowledge and experience about what to do and not do and what needs fixing in the game to make it better? And then you have the nerve to say that you're trying not to waste our time because of the knowledge we have, which isn't the same as the situation in your game? Then how the fucking hell do you expect us to help you fix something someone else fucked up when we don't even know how they fucked it up in the first place?
If your friend knows so much more than everyone here, get him to come here and explain it so we can all bask in the brilliance of his knowledge and insight. Until then, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
