I'm glad you found your problem as well. I don't understand the conflict either.

I will PM Sara, thanks for suggesting it.

I don't know! I have never knowingly downloaded careers yet, so I am assuming it was some sort of babysitter hack.

The only babysitter hack I was aware of in my game was dizzys sitter1f and as far as I know the two are not related. At any rate, I removed both of them, to be on the safe side.

Edit: I just noticed we have a SaraMK here as a member. Maybe it is hers?

Nothing like posting a problem to bring out the detective in me

I removed my Downloads4 folder (the last "batch" of downloads) and the problem disappeared. I put it back, the problem reoccurred. So that narrowed it down at least. I then arranged all the files by date modified and at the top of the list was SaramkirkChildCareTeen.package. I removed it on a hunch. Relaunched the game and now all is well.

That's what I get for downloading willy-nilly. I normally add things one at a time, but I had so many things collected to d/l; I added them all at once.

Anyway, problem solved for me. Venusy, do you have this particular download? I don't recall where I got it.

Hi all. Wondering if anyone might be able to help me on this. Sunday, I went on a downloading spree, as I do every Sunday

Anway, after starting up the game and loading a family to place them in the neighborhood, I got an Object Error. The only option I had to get rid of it so the lot would load was "delete". Cancel and Reset did nothing. This is what the error says:

Error occurred in object "Job Data-Teen Elder-Athletics" 235. Error: Invalid Constant. Stack trace saved in C:/Doc/name/My Doc/EAgames/TheSims2/Logs/Object Error._Noo1_t########.txt." (This number changes of course, depending on what lot I am loading.) Happens on all lots, including downtown.

Once I got into a lot, I noticed Don Lothario had a want to retire and have a family reunion, although he is 22 days from being an elder. I moved him, bull dozed the lot and those wants went away. Not sure if that's relevant or not.

I thought at first it might be the sitter1f. of dizzy's, so I removed it, but no change. The error continues to pop up.

I decided to post here for possible solutions before removing all of my downloads. Thanks in advance for any insight.

You are right. I am reading that book right now. I love Stephen King.

I learned from the BBS that it is very difficult to learn anything at all from the BBS, unless you use the Search Tool and sort by Highest Rated.
Even then, the results are somewhat dubious.

I just had a sim get the want fulfilled when she married a sim with 48K in the "bank", but he also had a fully furnished house in the 50K bracket.

Haha, I get this weird picture of a walking Candy Apple wearing glasses.
Maybe he is Will Wright. That would be a hoot. Nah, Wright goes out in public, so that's out.

The Prima Guide mentions that it is important to "save" after you move the tombstones, or they won't be there when you go to the cemetery. In other words, the grave will return to it's original lot. Probably common sense, but thought I'd mention it.

That's true. When Mrs. CrumpleBottom was bitten in my game, (unbeknownst to me until after the fact), I had the scratchy lines, until I overwrote the object.package file.

Yes, it is a Family Aspiration. Knowledge sims couldn't care less, apparently.

Thank you, Hook! This will really come in handy!

Every time I click on mine it says "No actions available" or something to that effect. I'll try moving it around to see if that helps.

I had just the opposite problem. My hair, skins, earrings, etc. wouldn't show. but the objects do?

I found this post helpful:

I haven't tried it yet, but here's a HAck to control which sims get bitten. (Or not).

Lol, witch

I prefer a medium sized house that is at least partially furnished. I too, like to see how others decorate. I tend to change it, but it's fun to get an idea of some else's tastes.

I don't care for crazy terrain, flat is fine with me. Easier for the gardner.

Thanks again, will do. 

I have an issue where someone will call my sim to go downtown, the taxi comes, the sim gets in, the downtown screen loads but when downtown shows up it is in build/buy mode and there is no sim/taxi in sight.

I have to go back to the neighborhood. The sim is there on the lot, getting out of the taxi as if he has been downtown and his "outing meter" is still running.

Thanks, Maxoid Tom

I switched from a ATI Radeon 5200 series to a PNY Geforce 6600 GT AGP 128 with a core clock speed of 500 and the difference is between night and day. I also removed my old 512 memory and added two Kingston 512 3200 (400HZ DDR) and now my game is smoking.

That's good to know, as most of my sims are married. Gotta love the "smustle".

Well, let's see, I have a brown head parrot named Mikey, two parrotlets named charlie and T-Lo. I used to have another brown head and a cockatiel named Modem, but they flew away. I would love to have a small dog, like a Yorkie or Tea Cup Maltese. My Maltese Lizzie died in January. Now I am sad.

I don't have toe jam, but I like to jam to "toe the wet sprocket".

Ok, goodnight, John Boy.

Yeah, I removed all hacks and my interactions are all there. I have since installed the college clock and Merola's painting and they work just fine. I mish my custom hair though, I have all these women walking around bald, hehe. Nothing a trip to the mirror shouldn't fix.

Tha's good to know nectere, thanks!

Has anyone seen this thread?Looks like Nightlife is having a few bugs already

I've had this same problem on 2 different houses. Never thought to question why. Just another glitch to deal with.

This is exciting! I had no idea you even had any stories! I bookmarked your page. I think I'll be up for awhile! Thanks!
