Maracas are a type of spanish percussion instrument, floopy.  I'm sure Emma meant neither more nor less than that.   Shocked

That would be fine by me. Stop fishing in my coy pond!

* veilchen cracks up

I didn't know that guests fished autonomously. Where do the fish go that they catch? I actually had issues with the ponds, because my home/lot owner sims never went fishing autonomously. Let alone guests. I also never saw any fish in there, my pixel people just pulled them out, and that was that. I want to see fish!

Well, maybe with my new computer - and new card - I can. I just wish it would hurry up and get here. I just had to pick a company form California to order from, didn't I. Its a lot of kilometers away from were I am.

Now we can imagine happy fishing, "I really love to be with just this pond" fishing, "one last time before I leave this pond forever" fishing...

Some people have reported that the patch helped with music stuttering and lag issues.  I think I read somewhere on this board that there's a crack that's compatible with the patch .... 

Installing the patch and updating the crack worked. Cheesy

I've just downloaded the latest no-CD crack from gamecopyworld. Is it really supposed to be 44.5Mb once it's unzipped? This seems a helluva leap in size from the rather svelte 11.2Mb of the original no-CD exe. I've tried the download from several mirrors and the size is consistent. I'd like some confirmation and reason for the bloat before unleashing it on my machine.

Mine no-CD crack for BV is only 11.2. Why did you need to get a new one?

Well, there's the patch, but that apparently breaks more things than it fixes (and the things fixed were already fixed by hacks). Still, I haven't heard of anyone's game exploding from running the Unholy Hybrid edition (although I'm still running BV unpatched).

The only reason I would like to install the patch + matching updated no-CD exe is to fix the "Periodic Events Controller" bug that I understand to be the main cause of the intermittent lag. All the other bugs are fixed with MATY hacks but I believe this is a code level bug. I'd still like to know why there is a 30Mb difference in exe size - did they accidently release a debug build or something? The previous largest exe was the original BV exe at 21.6Mb (11.2Mb no-CD version) so doubling it in size seems a bit extreme or else that's a hell of a lot of bonus malware packed in with it.

Yea, the patched no-CD .exe is big, but I've been using it and it works fine, so I suspect they did leave debug info in.

A few people have had trouble with the Unholy Hybrid.  They get a particular error message.  I can't remember what it is, but one person reported it here, and one person reported it at the BBS.  Apparently it didn't happen immediately -- it took time.

Yay!

Dumb question, but I'm really new to using cracks. Would the new patch-compatible crack be the 10/30 version posted up by Fairlight? I don't see a newer one, unless I'm missing it?

There's a 10/30 version? I thought the latest was from 10/29.
