Title: Saluting plague - SOLVED Post by: Goggalor on 2008 December 07, 01:36:58 I was playtesting the apartment house I built for this months House of Fail, and moved in the Picasos in one of the apartments. They are both in the military career. Suddenly everyone one the lot walks around saluting left and right. Other tenants, the landlord, the mailman, etc.
So I left that house and plopped down a copy and moved in a new CAS family. Well, they were still saluting. I backed up the EA games folder, deleted it and let the game create a fresh one. Just moved over the old LotCatalog and started a new neighborhood. No Luck. Serves me right for forgetting to put in the empty freetime template after last game install and then using a maxian family I guess. I tried to do a search for this but turned up nothing. So has anyone else run in to this? And more importantly, can this type of behavior spread through the lot so that I can't share it use it after a reinstall if it comes to that? I had no hacks or CC whatsoever in the game when I made the lot btw.

No reinstall at least ;D. Thanks.

I don't have M&G yet, so I can laugh at this. I suppose I won't be laughing much once I get it.

It's not really that big of deal. It's just a new idle animation that they do when walking outside. It is quite odd when the game tries to add a couple animations together though. The really annoying animation that I want stomped is the fucking deep breath thing they do when standing around outside. No one sits there smelling the air that often. As I was reading about your dilemma, I thought, hey, maybe it's just a sunny day? (Not really, but it sounded like a great answer). I can't believe that is actually the reason. That is to funny! :D Hope it's fixed soon. I think I may be getting this SP for Christmas. I totally agree with you about the deep breath thing. It looks like they all have asthma. Sometimes I get so annoyed I delete them. Another weird thing is the jerky back and forth head movement when waiting to be greeted. It looks like Parkinson's on speed. :-\ Bleh.

Title: Re: Saluting plague - SOLVED Post by: Liz on 2008 December 08, 15:36:36 That twitchy thing's always worked my nerves (Max Headroom much?). I also hate that weird car horn shriek/beep/bleep noise they sometimes make, inevitably while speed-twitching. The noise is rare, though; I usually notice it when there's a twitchy walkby while the lot's on 3x speed.
