Unrelated problem. It sounds like the work of the non-awesome.

Either you've pulled a Ness, or this is the work of the non-awesome.

Unless you pulled a Ness and have two copies lurking about.

Does this fix anything regarding pet jobs, or only sim jobs with the pets expansion? I've been having an issue where a dog that's run away lost her job by not showing up for work when it was impossible for her to GO to work (a feature? A stupid one IMO), and once a chance card told me my pet lost it's job for chosing wrong but was merely demoted (bad wording?)

Ok my problem is solved and was in fact caused by a non awesome.  I had Jase's no teen jobs for elders floating around, and it wasn't my fault, as I didn't know it was there.  It hitchiked with something. :/  problem solved.

Thanks for this.  I hope it helps my pets get a job.  Sims got the job for them but no car shows up.  And yes I have plenty of nonMATY hacks.   If this doesn't work, I'll start eliminating them.  Again, many thanks.

Since this hack is related to Job Fixes, I thought I could submit my problem here:

When a Sim calls a pet's employer to retire, the calling Sim's own carreer falls down back to a low-level job!

If this isn't a bug, I don't know what to call it...

I used to play with harderjobs before I installed Pets. I no longer have this hack in my game.
Before posting here, I made a quick search on the Sims 2 BBS - looks like I'm not the only one experiencing it.

Discovered bug to be worse than actually appears: Could potentially scramble a sim's job to an unrecognized level and explode your game in a big fiery ball visible from space. Fixed now. This is now a red-level fix as a result.

I was running the old Dizzy d2Check scanner today, and noticed that it turned up a potential conflict for this hack with harderjobs:

Code:
File: petsp0-jobfixes.package, conflicts:
Type = 53545223, Group = 7F8F4EB6, Instance = 12F in file harderjobs.package

I'm presuming there's no reason for concern, but wanted to make sure that was out there.

Doesn't actually cause any problems, since they're the same, but it is redundant, so I'll remove it from harderjobs.

As this is a Very Critical hack, you should have this one installed anyway. Unless you don't have Pets, which means you should have the OfB fixes. If you don't have OfB either, then I would assume you'd need a NL version of harderjobs, which probably won't get this change if it still needs it. (And assuming there is a pre-OfB harderjobs available).

Well, according to the RTFM:  "Required for harderjobs."

You should have this anyway...

This hack is required to use harderjobs. See "requires". If you have harder jobs, and don't have this, your game doesn't work. Actually, if you don't have this, your game just doesn't work, period. See "VERY CRITICAL" status.

Okay, well, D'uh. I do have petsp0-jobfixes.package and the harderjobs.package. But when I read Kevin's quote:


I was running the old Dizzy d2Check scanner today, and noticed that it turned up a potential conflict for this hack with harderjobs:

Code:
File: petsp0-jobfixes.package, conflicts:
Type = 53545223, Group = 7F8F4EB6, Instance = 12F in file harderjobs.package

I'm presuming there's no reason for concern, but wanted to make sure that was out there.

I thought that this was referring to a hack named "Dizzy d2Check" - which I had never heard of  before (as a hack, because it is a program- again with the "D'uh" moment). And I was all concerned that a modification was being made to a perfectly good hack based on some hack I had never heard of before and wasn't at all sure that I wanted.

So please disregard my earlier question. I had a bad case of "eyes running ahead of the text". And I am off to update the new & improved harderjobs.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Heh, not really improved, just removed the redundant stringset to avoid it showing as a conflict, which was harmless.

I was having this error whenever a certain sim tried to get in their car to go to work. So I checked that all my hacks were up to date and petsp0-jobfixes was the one I needed to update. Initially, this seemed to fix the problem, but a couple of sim days later it's happening again.

anyway, I'll attach the log just in case.
