I have Uni/NL/OFB and the patches.  Any community lost that has either a cash register or is a resturant just loads and loads and loads.  I can hear the birds chirping but nothing is happening.  Community lots with no commercial ventures like graveyards load quick and easy.  I removed all hacks and tried converting the offending lots to residential to see if I could get in them but no luck.

//EDIT\\  There seems to be an issue with Sims Connection produce type objects.  I suspected this and had removed them but the lots still didn't load.  I can have a sim go to those lots in debug mode and just delete them when the error message comes up.

That's because the sandwich is for ME whelp!!

Man that would drive me mad.  I only have Uni and NL.  Just for giiggles, did you try extracting the sim to see what it looked like?  Maybe by some strange miracle, when you upgrade to Seasons, plastic surgery become generic?

1. Open SimPE and use the neighborhood browser plugin
 
2. After it loads use the sims surgery plugin

3. It may take a while to load, go make a sandwich or something. Ok when it is done, an alphabetical list of the characters from your town will be in a separate window.
4. Pick Sim you want to extract and use as prototype for sim surgery. On that top area, there is a link called Extract that has a little thank you text from Quaxi. Just extract to Saved Sims folder. I recomend changing the file name to the name of your sim.

5. Repeat as necessary for all of your beloved sims.

Close SimPE and open Body Shop to make sure everyone is present and accounted for. If you have extracted sims that came with the game or children of game sims there may be no option to delete them. You can use extract for another sim and give it the same name as the one you are tired of and it will overwrite.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE!!

If you changed a sims' ugly maw with Danny's coa or Dr Vu's machine and it want to extract the new look YOU MUST alter the DNA as explained here:

1. Open Simpe, then open your neighbourhood via the neighbourhood browser

2. Open the Sim browser

3. Find the Sim that has recently been to the plastic surgeon (they're listed by their first name) and click "open"

4. You'll see a lot of info. Click on "more" and choose "open character file"

5. Then the character file of your Sim opens. On the left hand side you will see "Facial Structure", click it and on the right hand side two lines will appear (if you've done plastic surgery that is!!!)

6. Right click the second line and choose "Extract..."

7. Save the extracted file in a directory of your choice, KEEP THE ORIGINAL NAME

8. Back in Simpe, right click the first line and choose "Replace..."

9. Then select the file you just extracted. IMPORTANT: use the file with the .simpe extension NOT the file with the .xml extension!!!

10. The first line will go italics, telling you that it's been changed. Click "Save" and you're all done!

I could do that for Photoshop but I think it only does one pic at a time.  With the freebee program mentioned in the tread, I can do unlimited ones as long as I don't have the preview first option selected.  This new custom computer I have is a monster.  I thought the game looked good on my other one but man this one is so fast and sharp.  Game takes less than thrree minutes to load and I have quite a bit of cc.

Thanks.  Don't know why this didn't come up in search here or at MTS2.

Is there a way to get the game to make bigger screen caps than 600x450?  I have gunmod's camera hack which is great for closeups but I want bigger caps.

KILL IT!!

Because she could.  Sometimes running a popular site just gets to be a PITA and pulling the rug out from everyone is what you want to do.  She didn't owe anyone a warning, though it would have been a nice gesture.  Maybe it is better to burn out than to fade away. 

Or maybe this is a belated April's fools.

1)  Use bathroom Uses You to make them use the bathroom properly or else just install showers w/o tubs.
2)  MTS2 has this, I think it is made by Targa.
3)  MTS2 has this, it is made by Monique who has a bunch of good no automony hacks.

I have a fresh new hood made with deleteall...  I have Uni, Hoiliday Pack and NL, no OFB.  The bartenders don't show up in the main neighborhood.  They do show up in downtown though.  I usually use the Oasis bar.  I do not have the NPC spam problem.  They did show up at first when I was testing all the comm lots but they all on strike now.  Please help me and my bunny.

But in that case people can pick and choose what they want instead of a whole CD of ugly ass shit from Maxis.  I'd rather waste my money doing something satisfying like punking people on ebay or um, giving it to orphans and widows.

Not totally related but my game just generated a mailman.  I went to change his looks and clothes with the COA panel and I see he has a locked want to flirt with a little boy in the neighborhood he obviously has never even met.   ?  I got criminals in my hood but no one asked for a pedophile ok?

I just want to say that the banner with Rennie or whatever her name is wasn't done by me.  I didn't even know who that was when I saw it.

LOL!  Did you try resetting him with boolProp?  The only other thing I can think of is try to see if any plumbing is broken and fix or replace it because it looks like the ani for the broken shower.

I have a themed hood so I am picky about what matches it.  Plus I think most stuff sucks anyway.  I have paid for a few little things but they are things I use all the time like Sussi's skins (the only skins I like).  I don't "do" subscriptions though I don't mind donating to some sites.  One site pissed me off last year though, myself and some others gave them decent donations and then a week later they said someone hurt their widdle feelings so they were not gonna make anything anymore.  Oh nice going you spineless ass.

If people want to subscribe to sites or pay for downloads, who cares?  No one died from them doing that.


This is teh funny but I prefer fuckwad better.

Maybe she had a different avatar before your post but that's a baby white chinchilla and it looks like it is being weighed in a gram scale.  It's what breeders and owners use to make sure the chinny is not underweight.

I did Sim Surgery to try to change 2 skintones and the stupid thing only changed their faces and nothing else!  I restored the backup copy of my game to fix the screw up.

One word for you:  wordwrap.  How do you expect people to read all that garbage?  More like look at them when you want to have a seizure.

I get this too.  I don't think it is anything serious.  If you have Danny's COA panel you can have it buy clothes from there and it will roll.  Otherwise ignore it.

I get a warning even though I do not use bed time or bed time warning.  It happens to a sim in a household where the sim is single and living with a couple.  I don't get the unwanted warning in other arrangements.

I used to have the problem all the the time until I got rid of the post mortum hack.  You will have to unlink her in SimPE to get her to remarry.

Oh lord man.  This is really needed.  They do it when there's another computer available too!!  Thanks yo.

I have bed time off and bed warning off but sometimes I get an annoying pop up that says "so and so's estemated bedtime is less than an hour."  If I cared, I'd turn the warning on.

Edit:  This seems to have stopped with this new version.

What about the phone booth for community lots?  I have had problems whrn I move a tombstone to a comm lot, then place it somewhere.  The sims mourns by the phone instead of where I put the grave.  Then I have the lot freeze up (I guess the ghost is trying to spawn) and in buld mode, if I move the phone booth on the cemetery lot, it freezes up everything.  I have had to redo 2 graveyards because of this.
