Title: Stuck Zzz's - my Sims are sleepwalking?!?
Post by: SimSherry on 2006 February 14, 22:16:31
Hi all.  I've got a reoccuring glitch in my game that shows my Sims with Zzz's floating about their heads all day.  Supposedly the NL patch 2 fixed this (stating that it was a side effect of the maxMotives cheat) but it hasn't fixed it for me.  I'm also using crammyboy's wonderful movie-tool bonsai tree thingy to turn Zzz's off, but it doesn't always do so, for some reason.

Now, I know I could simply stop using maxMotives and that *might* take care of the problem, but I've found that I love turning the Zzz's off so much, that what I'd really like is a way to globally patch my game so they never appear.  Is this possible?  Perhaps there's a mod/hack out there for this that I'm unaware of?  Thanks in advance for any input.

I have only seen this on the toddlers and babies-but once they have been to sleep they go away. Dunno if that would work with the older sims though.

 In my game the zzz's stayed after the toddler got out of the crib.    Mine was caused by moving the crib
with "move objects" while the toddler was sleeping.    Once the toddler used the crib again the zzz's went away.

I've had problems like this without any hacks or cheats, too.  Most of the time it's with the green mist staying around a sim even though they've taken a shower.  It just usually goes away on its own after a few showers, or I guess in your case, a few nights' rest.  This problem happens most of the time when I'm going at the maximum speed.  Good luck.

My favourite episode of stuck ZZZs is from Trubble's I'm Surrounded by Idiots story (http://ptpalace.net/simz/isbi/single.php?id=11):
