Title: Sims Freeze During Fires Post by: HazelEyes on 2008 May 09, 11:56:08 I have a recurring and annoying bug in my game, and after asking around, I was recommended to come here, since most of the hacks in my game are MATY-ware. Whenever my lots catch on fire, all the Sims freeze in their current actions, usually fire-panic mode. Time continues to pass, the firefighter arrives, but /she, too, is stuck and doesn't do anything. I'm running Base + Nightlife on a laptop with Vista (ugh), and have had this problem since I installed Nightlife, but never before.
Specs (I am not certain what of this is relevant, but I figure I'll save time and dump it all regardless): Processor: Intel Pentium Dual CPU T2310 @ 1.46 GHz 1.47 GHz RAM: 2550 MB Display adapters: Mobile Intel 965 Express Hacks/mods: MATY: biotechfix, breakupfix, coffeecuphack, firemod, frontdoorhack, nl-anticrash, noaplusspam, noplagiarism. Non-awesome: Smonaff (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=185019) jealousy hack, Jenflower (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=32302) homework hack, both from MTS2. I tested the bug on an almost-empty lot with a CAS adult and saved the logs in a zip file, which I can upload if it would be helpful. With testingCheatsEnabled on it is possible to reset the error and the Sim in question will put out the fire and go on with his life.

Upload the error log if you can. Title: Re: Sims Freeze During Fires Post by: HazelEyes on 2008 May 10, 18:44:23 I'm uploading the object error file, but I also have the app error file. I just can't upload them both at once because their combined size is over the limit.
The object I used to set the fire was the Maxis default cheapest grill.

All I can say is make sure your hacks are updated and relevant for NL. If it is still occuring, try running the game CC free. If the bug doesn't occur in a vanilla game put the hacks in 50/50 at a time to see what is causing it.
Title: Re: Sims Freeze During Fires Post by: katalina on 2009 November 20, 06:59:42 I am having the same problem whenever I put the firemod in my downloads folder as well. I even tried testing it with zero other hacks in use and it still just made the game slow to a snail's pace while things burned for hours. Did anyone ever figure out what the problem was? I have the 18 Nov 2008 version that says it works for TS2 thru TS2-FT, unless that isn't the correct one. And like the OP, I am also running with NL as my highest EP. (I also have Uni.) Help?
