Would fix inordinate larva bawling after its damn nappy has already been changed. Where the fix includes checking lot sims for a a social or action in their imminent queue which should cure 'em of their ails.

Yes i noticed that shit and it pissed me off much more acutely because the spawn was one of my own. I was like WAFM waaah is mah babeh on the lawnz!?!

Can't imagine what the game would be like with rabbid lawn growth + this shit + riding lawn mower.. or robot lawn mower (it wouldn't care). Breutt.. mess of simlet all of the lawn and house and car and horrified criminally negligent sims.

There is such a thing?!!? where?!!

I'd have shot anyone who suggested the following but I was forced to try it for myself and verified it:

AA doesn't work well with windows vista. I have a Radeon HD2900XT which can do AA well. I didn't even notice the problem when first I installed the game in Windows 7 (7100).

Then my windows install failed and I had to fall back for several hell hours to Vista.. no AA in the game to speak of.. it was like a chainsaw to the eyes.

No matter what was attempted the graphics looked like cerated ass.

BUT after jumping back to Win 7 (7201).. AA is back.

The lesson children is that Vista sucks monkey balls.

Re: Dead Babies

Yeah I know that's the worst possible title


But moving right along,

I figured out why babies (in theory) are dying while in the care of townies. At least according to a request for help that I saw and some odd Townie behavior.


It seems that single townie parents of simlets with deadbeat parents seem to have trouble in their townie homes.

I went to visit the neighbor of one such townie to notice that she was stuck in the geometry of her house with the simlet. Having not seen the social worker sim yet I can only imagine that the townie young adult mom and child that got stuck behind a fence (Laurel Grisby) would have both died. I reset them but it isn't the first time I've seen infants and toddlers outside, I wouldn't doubt that the majority of townie homes have these death traps where infants and toddlers could end up getting stuck and unable to be rescued.

After having reset Laurel, Luz remained in her blanket, on their front lawn for several hours, until the middle of the morning when it occurred to Laurel to come out and rescue her infant from the elements and possible alien abduction.


Basically, Maxis please review all townie homes for death trap architecture so that townies don't spawn there and end up getting stuck and end up dying. There's no Lassie in the game to fetch help if they get stuck.

But you don't need to wipe and reinstall

Pointing to the leak being viral marketing, the game just updates the leaked version to retail.

I took the precausion of packaging and renaming the documents folder and left everything else in place.

Once the update finished, all was gold. no muss or fuss.

Pity the game crashes though. Hope that gets patched.
