Cell phones mysteriously vanish, citywide! Details at eleven.

So, um...  I'm getting irritated with my stupid Sims2 installation.  Current problem (of the day): No cellphone interactions available when clicking on a sim that has one.

I had three mod/hacks installed that add self-click options: JM's various Macro things, the romance hack by TwoJeffs, and a nakedness management hack by I think Crammyboy from MTS2.  I have since then removed all three of these, but to no avail- now I just get a bunch of nothing when I click on a cellular-enabled sim.

Oh, and handheld games and mp3 players don't seem to work, either... sigh.  I think it's time to reinstall the game, start fresh again.

Anyone a former Greek house member? Sounds like you're having memory-token amnesia, generally Greek-house induced.

Well, I never solved which hack was causing the problem, if it wasn't just a symptom of my Sims environment consuming itself from within, like that mythical snake that eats it's tail.  Ouroboros? Snake-what-eats-tail?  I forget.

Called in the air strike.  I needed an excuse to reformat my hard drive anyway.  Now everything is shinier, the sims works, and I only have to reinstall a few hundred files.  Yay!
