I tried to do that with my own kid, but it is too much like its parents and is as cynical as we are. How the hell do you crush the dreams of a kid that wants to be a tax attorney?

Have you even TRIED getting an up-to-date version of the game? It's basically impossible.

That's not really my thing. What's MISSING from the game is the opportunity for Sims to generally fight and have utterly dysfunctional relationships like seen in TS2's Awesomeland. No handbag walloping. No Punbot-smacking.

Okay, see if that shuts it up.

Will also need Game/Bin/scripts.package

The server is running on a potato ATM and tends to seize up at random. THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO SHOW UP SO I CAN SMACK YOU MORE.

Oh, hey, it's Smackable Punbot. Where have you been? I haven't smacked you in awhile.

The Game/Bin/Gameplay/GameplayData.package file.

To the best of my knowledge, TSR went free ages ago, so there is no "piracy" or useful marking involved. Decrapifying is concerned with specific forms of crap that I am not aware of being present in TSR, as crap tends to prevent the item from being installed via launcher, but not from being installed by hand as loose files. Doing this with a TSR file will not produce any helpful results and may break the file.

Re-booted.

OKay, see, that information is useful. I can add that in with the next update, although it will functionally be equivalent to just pressing the "ignore error" button.

Actually, the opposite should occur: On a failed result, there should have been a previous message indicating why the mission returned a failure state, of which the only two that should occur are "Couldn't find house to move FAMBLY into!" or "Moving FAMBLY into LOT". It should not be possible to get a "Failed executing" without a previous message. There is no logical condition that should not produce at least one of these previous messages prior to failing.

A home should be considered suitable if it has: At least one fridge, if there are organic meatbags, at least one bed per meatbag 6+, at least one crib per meatbag larva, and at least one robot charging station if there are robots.

I don't actually see an error in that log. Keep in mind that if you're turning on the storydebug reports, "mission failed" is actually a normal condition and does not represent an error. Actions are not expected to always succeed. If a sim attempts to find a home or split, for instance, but there are no valid positions into which this can occur, the action fails, and the debug report indicates this. A common cause: Kids are unable to move out of their parents' house because they can't afford to buy any of your homes that suit them. If you were storydebugging real life, you'd see this "failure" message a lot. FindHome tends to fail if a sim wants to move out of his home because his home is inadequate for his needs...but upon checking the housing market, he can't afford any of them. This is normal and realistic. You may, of course, choose to examine this situation in your neighborhood and maybe install some low-income housing...or you could just say "fuck it", and let them live in their parents' basement. There's nothing wrong with simply ignoring the issue, and does not mean the mod is not functioning correctly to get these messages in your story debug scroll. You're not actually supposed to be looking at those messages, anyway.

Error trap is, obviously, not trapping these errors because they are not errors, they are functioning correctly to generate correct failure states. If you don't like seeing actions fail, turn off the storydebug scroll, because actions are supposed to be able to fail.

I'm at a complete loss for why I'd want to have "effects" to make the game MORE blurry. And how would the game even know what I'm looking at? If I want random things to blurry, I WILL DRINK MORE VODKA.

Macs have a limit on how many file handles they can have open at a time. This limit is very low and easily reached in large, CC-infested neighborhoods, which will cause the game to be unable to finish loading or saving your game, as it cannot open the files.

I don't actually own a Mac, but here's some quick information I found:

Well, the biggest problem with supporting this "patch" is the complete lack of evidence that it actually exists. So far I have seen no one come forward with proof that it actually exists and am convinced this is some kind of elaborate hoax.

It's not "definite", but since no one can be bothered to link this patch or send me the files I need to inspect, it isn't happening until one of these happens.

I don't see anything unusual, the settings for changing them in the game options work normally. Please include screenshot and better description of what you mean by "unable", the aging controls appear fine to me.

Yes, I'm familiar with how pedophile grooming works. Normal, non-pedophile sims will not attempt to groom strange children. If that's what you want, there's an option for this in AwesomeMod. Just don't expect it to be consequence free if you get caught.

Let me guess this straight. You're complaining that your sims aren't sufficiently pedophiles for your taste? You know if that's what you want, there IS a trait for that.

Seems normal to me. Wife and kid behave exactly like that, too.

Reinstall and then use a megapatch instead of incremental?

That trait was never fully implemented in the release builds and is not normally in the selectable or spawnable list for that reason, as the purpose for which it was intended never took off.

The hosting service broke some file permissions. The matter has been brought to my attention and they've been fixed. Nothing to see here, move along.

Is this a stock behavior or have you attempted to mod the game? I've seen this before, with early attempts at clock-modding.

Should already have been fixed.

Unrelated bug with a recent update that was fixed already.

Well, you could manually edit the file with the appropriate data, but then you'd have to understand how to get that data. As I have never seen a 1.69 patch anywhere, and nobody has volunteered to send the files I asked for, I have no means of acquiring this data. You are on your own.
