Title: I broke my pets' careers! SOLVED
Post by: FroggySim on 2008 November 07, 11:28:48
All pets that I have in the entertainment career can no longer get promoted! They will return with the carpool and cause an error immediately. Hitting cancel doesn't do anything and hitting reset makes them get out of the car as normal - but without their rightfully earned money and/or a promotion. When they have not yet learned the command neccessary for promotion, they return from work without the error and get paid normally. The problem occurs also without hacks.
Help, please? (Error log attached)

EDIT: Yes, that was it Happy the dog is now a happy Understudy and the Burb family has some much needed extra money for their newest spawn.

I had that problem myself recently and removing all hacks didn't help. However, reinstalling apartment life did fix the problem- until I reinstalled the patch, so I assume the patch is the problem.

Yes, ALp2 broke it.

Edit to remove link.

Well, I was ranting ealier today about how people should be up to date with the latest patch, so figured a thing like this shouldn't put them off :)

Bloody patches. I finally patched to patch 2 last night and I now have invisible rubbish bins. I should have just stuck to Pescado fixes. It was all working fine.

I know I've seen that problem here before but a search on invisible trashcans doesn't return any results. I hope I don't have to re-install AL. Bloody, bloody EAxis.

I like my invisible trashcans. They function as normal, and the place looks better. Who wants a rubbish bin right outside your gate anyway? I'm just not sure if they'd materialize if someone kicked them over, or would invisible rubbish just sit there festering, until cockroaches appeared. Hasn't happened yet.

Odd. I've had this problem since I installed AL, and I haven't used an EA patch since Seasons. Oh, well.
