More Awesome Than You!

Two of my Sims woohoo'd on this bed and as you can see from the screenie, the mattress and pillows are offset from the bed.  The only solution I've been able to come up with so far is to sell the bed and get a new one, but sooner or later the new bed breaks too.

I don't know what's causing it but I'm pretty sure it hasn't happened on any of my other lots, so I'll guess that a broken lot is to blame.

Wow.....are you using any bed-related hacks?

I dunno how you get that in the GAME, but I get that a lot in real life.

I thought you didn't sleep Pescado, the 'King of the Caffienators'-why would you need a bed? :P

Not for sleep, obviously.

Ah! I know-you use it as a trampoline. ;)

He jumps on the bed when is fun bar is too low and he doesn't want to do his homework. ;)

I have not seen that exact problem, but during testing of some other stuff, I've seen the normal Maxis bed get pretty weird just from those other items being in Downloads.

Specifically, Toddler beds made by Rebecah at MTS2, and badly made recolors of bedding by some others have caused strange bed graphics. (I don't know how you can make a texture so bad that it causes these problems, but I have seen it).

This is NOT to say anything adverse about Rebecah. She corrects most problems that are pointed out to her. But I know for a fact that at least 2 of her toddler beds affect the graphics for ALL the Maxis beds. While her toddler beds work fine, I choose not to use them because of this. I would never be able to say in the future. "I'm using a Maxis bed." when trying to rule out problems.

Based on what magicmoon and others have said, I'd suggest removing all bed-related hacks, all custom beds and beddings from your game, and then returning to this lot to see whether the problem still exists.  (By not entering other lots, you should, I think, not affect the CC on them at this time, as long as you don't actually save your game before exiting.)  If everything is fine, then put things back in a few at a time until you isolate the problem, which you should either update if possible or remove from your game.  After that, play the lot once more, just to check, and then try another lot, and hopefully it should now be working fine and your CC unaffected unless the permanently removed object was originally on the lot.

It looks like this was a problem with the lot.  I suspect it's because the lot wasn't opened and saved before moving the family in.  I've had no recurrence of this problem since moving the old family out, opening and saving the lot, and moving a new family in.

Add it to the list of weird stuff that can happen if you don't freshen lots before moving in ;)

Beds do that sometimes on my old Greek lots. Of course, on a Greek lot it's no problem replacing whatever breaks. I always have way more money than I'll ever need.

I got bored with playing sims in my custom greek house (one of the Brixham), so before the last playable moved back to the hood, I had him invite a dormie member to move in. So he's now a placeholder, and if I get any students with the want to join the greek house, they only have to make friends with him to do so.

But yea, if I ever have a student move into that greek house in the future, there's a ton of simoleans waiting for him/her. :)

Not if you have a fortune sim or two living there, they'll want to spend it as fast as they get it!  Even the largest greek house doesn't really need 200 expensive counters........
