I am happy you saved some $ 

The cd-wow website does that from time to time, change the price for no apparent reason, but next time you go in the way I said it will be the low price again...

This time I will reset the game. I have too many neighborhoods with too many character files and I am mostly sick of them anyway.

I am also trying to weed through my download folder. Does anyone have a good way to find out which hairfiles you want to get rid of? I don't understand the preview images Clean Pack installer uses, I just can't tell what the hair is supposed to look like from those. And Bodyshop is too annoying to use.

I bought Nightlife from CD-Wow for £12.99 (don't know how many dollars that is).
If you go directly to their site, it is 1 to 2 pounds more expensive for some reason...

Here's how: Go to www.kelkoo.co.uk, search for sims 2 nightlife. Click on the link to cd-wow. The price is suddenly 12.99.
Nice but weird. I bought uni the same way and yes, the price was 12.99 for that too.

Oh, and shipping is included to anywhere in the world.

Well, if you're a geek then I am too. I got my BA in computer science and then promptly got stuck doing helpdesk because everyone else have Master's degrees. 
At least I get to do some Unix support too, not just regular WinXP. We are about 50% women here though, but I am the only one so far on Unix.

Only thing I heard was that according to MTS2 MaxoidTom had confirmed that JM's amnesiafix is incompatible with NL.

Kind of cool that the Maxoids are beta-testing for him. 

I think Lyran has started making Contacts too (they go under Sunglasses) which you just put on your sim in-game.

Make sure you go through your downloads folder with the HackScanner from DJSims.
Custom careers have a tendency to mess things up...

Very cool. 

Did she have the baby at least?

And are you going to set her to elder after she has it?

Sure enough, I took out the SmartServe hack and everything is back to normal...
I'll have to pop over and tell twojeffs about this in case he is not aware.

Thx!   Will try that after finishing the communal cleaning chore tonight.
Ah...the joys of living in a socialist country!

Er....Maxis. The Craftsman.
But I do have the same problem in houses that I built too.

  Especially since they don't have washers and driers!

No, I want to try the hack first. If that doesn't work I will move them out then in again.
They just moved into the house anyway, and it was like that very quickly after. (New lot, noone had lived there before them).

They don't even have any mobile phones although they keep wishing for them.
I strongly suspect that the hack is the culprit as I didn 't have this problem before the hack and now I have it in several families although I only thoroughly tested the one family in the previous post.

My favorite is "The diary of a mad mobile homemaker."
VERY original and funny!

I had this problem last night too.
I had a Maxis fridge, no diagonal walls and both sims got it.
No counters needed cleaning.
I fixed whatever could be fixed with the lot debugger, nothing changed.
On the stove I can sometimes choose serve/have dinner but this disappears from the queue immediately.
Check food levels does not help at all.
I sold the fridge, bought another different one, problem solved for only a short time.

Now it is the same again.

I have TwoJeff's hack and I will try tonight to take it out...

Cheap uncle?
