The new EDS appears to carry an unknown risk of alien abduction at maximum level.
According to the Prima guide, there is a slim chance that previously abducted sims will unexpectedly disappear for two hours when using the EDS. It also says the chances of alien abduction in the EDS increase as the number of normal abductions increases. Not the most accurate source, and no-one here has yet reported this happening to them... |

College Rampage?  (excuse my ignorance...) there is a setting on macrotastics that allows your sim to run around like a chicken with its head cut of doing assignment after ,assignment ,assignment until you cancel the action Is this a joke  No  then I must see pics of that, anybody have some? No pics, but click on the link in my post above, and try it for yourself. Make sure you have the skillinator, bathroom uses you, autoyak, autosoc, and the sleep clock installed. |

I think this has to do with books being left out. At least that's the best I could figure it was, especially since the log refers to "Get nearest free book." It seems that having the sim clean or at least "put away all books" will allow them to go ahead with the Rampage.
it looks like researchers didnt put away their books like rainbow said have your sim put away all books THANK YOU! Yep, that fixed the problem. Sorry for taking so long to reply. And if you haven't experienced the awesome fury of Macrostastics and College Rampage yet, click here! |

On some University lots, when I try to use College Rampage, the Sim immediately gets reset. I'm running TS2, Uni, and NL patched, but this problem was also oocuring when I just had NL and Uni installed. An error log is attached.

1) I have InSimenator (UV) 2[1].1 (that's what the file name says anyway)
2)I don't have any other patches.
Call me crazy, but would UV indicate that this is a University version of the InSiminator? I am currently also EPless, but have the InSiminator 1.6Sim which has been fine. UV stands for Uni versal. It works with any version of TS2, but certain options are disabled without EPs installed. |

1. romancemod. It doesn't work at all with NL yet, so you'll need to use something else until then, but it really does fix how jealousy works.
2. Depends on the furious interaction. Being cheated on lasts longer than burglar, for example.

I can see a few problems right away:
Remove ltwvariety from your game. Lifetime Wants are a Uni/NL feature, so that mod isn't necessary. I don't think the Skillinator works properly with no EPs, and you're missing some items required for it to run anyway. The sshack and the nogizmowants are more Uni fixes, so remove those. And make sure your phone hack is the oldest version available.
EDIT: noresurrectwants is another Uni hack. And you don't need to censor the crap in noeatcrap.

Does this fix do anything about those "call in sick" npcs that seem to be generated every goddamn time I have a sim call in sick to work?
I had one call in sick just as the carpool turned up, game lags away while it churns out another useless npc to take the call. I got over-excited about something and pressed the cancel button when prompted "do you want to phone in sick". Duh. Sim spins to change into work clothes, goes to run out to the carpool. No! Cancel action, return to phone, phone in sick, dammit. Chug-chug-chug. Game generates another npc to deal with the second call. Gah!
Wasn't that fixed in the phonehack? |

I understand what you're saying.
In the Inseminator there's a relations adjuster that lets you set/clear flags for crush, love, married/joined, engaged, friends, best friends, and enemies. I've always thought it would be great if there was also an option to set a family flag.
If you've got the latest version, simply hit "Spawn.../Family Tree". I think it got split from the relationship adjuster a while back. EDIT: Misunderstood question. The family tree only allows parent and child flags to be set, instead of the family flag. Whoops. |

By the way, the mod for miscarriges is the InTeen. I used it once, read about all the conflicts it caused, deleted it, and was never tempted to download it again.
EDIT'd: I have quite a lot of hacks in my game, and from what I had read, the InTeen conflicted with about three of them. These were essential hacks for me to use, but I suppose they might have been fixed in a update...

I just had a similar problem last night. Two friends and all of a sudden one can't call the other because she's not on the phone list. She was still in the relationships panel but not on the phone list. I checked the one who couldn't be called and she was just fine. I thought it was my phone hack mod, so I pulled it out. Much to my dismay the phone is now driving me nuts! They both have cell phones and land lines. So if the problem is that the one is invisable, and my teleporting her over fixed the problem, does that mean I can put my phone hack back in? (Oh, it's TwoJeff's phone lines hack) Thanks for your help in advance. I wasn't aware TwoJeffs made a phone lines hack... Anyway, try the FFS Lot Debugger, and use the "Clear Offworld Loiterers" option. |

I actually ran the game in windowed mode and left it open while I was hunting for the face files.
How does one do this? On the "Target" line of the desktop shortcut, simply add "-w -r800x600" (sans quotation marks). So, if you have NL, the "Target" line will look like this: ""C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Nightlife\TSBin\Sims2EP2.exe" -w -r800x600" Replace 800x600 with whatever resoloution you'd like to run the game in. |

Don't use payatbox if you have NL. If you get something like a restaurant coupon, then the animations for Macro.../Pay Bills and Get Mail constantly repeat without the Sim ever getting anything out of the mailbox.

Use the debugger to change LTWs. Popularity sims seem to have quite a wide choice, as do Fortune sims. Family are the worst!
No, if you've got NL, Pleasure (Have 50 Dream Dates, Have 100 First Dates (numbers are probably wrong)) and Grilled Cheese (Eat 200 Grilled Cheese Sandwiches) are the worst. Still, if you've got NL, it's easy to change aspiration. |

The clothingtool itself works fine in NL, it's the clothingtools globals that are been updated. I'm not sure what needs updating, but I've taken the globals out in case of game exploding in a BFBVFS*.

I have an older hack called liugnostaylate I am not sure if I got it at MTS2 or where for sure but I got it when Sims 2 first came out it was one of the first hacks I put in my game I still use it and have had no problems with it. I have TS2 Uni and nightlife.All of my adult sims will stay until I tell them good bye.The children will stay untill around nine o'clock when one of their parents will come and get them. Then a popup will come on and say It is past bedtime and they and the child are leaveing.
That's a hack from livin-it-up.net. Unfortunatelly, the site disappeared a while back due to lack of funding. I think Inge has some of the stuff over at Simlogical if anyone else wants to try it out. EDIT: Direct link to the hack. |

I found the problem file in my game: TS2UAdultPsychologyCareer.package.
I'm not sure why it caused a conflict with the default Law Enforcement career, or why TS2UTeenPschologyCareer.package doesn't cause a conflict with the teen law enforcement career.
And yes, it might be SaraMK's hack. Maybe you should ask her about it.
