Check this for me

[Lerf]

I'm having this problem with my regular game and with my vanilla--no CC, no hacks-- version.


Whenever I try to adopt a child or call an exterminator the Sim talks for a few seconds then jumps out of the action.   Everything's fine for all the other services including the adopt a pet, though I'll sometimes have to tell them to call services a couple of times without them jumping out.

At one point I was getting a "Error-something something--wrong species-something something Cancel Reset Delete" message when I tried to adopt a child.

WIll someone else check and see if it's happening to them.

Make an actual error log, that might help. Other than "Something error something."

Reupdate all of your hacks. That's been fixed.

1. I updated all my hacks.  It's still happening.

2. I had the problem in a game without any hacks, or custom content.

There's been some issues with NPC's spawning that I don't think have been narrowed down to hacks/glitch's if this is a new hood that may not have all the proper NPC's loaded you may wish to use the NPC/Townie spawner to spawn an exterminator and a social worker.

I didn't have a repairman spawned in my current neighborhood and I was getting jumps when trying to call for one, after I spawned a handyman I've had no issues.

*edit* attaching error log in case an awesome one wants to take a look.

Looks to be the bug in antiredundancy which has been fixed. Make sure you have the latest version.

[Ndainye]

I don't have antiredundancy installed unless it's piggybacked on another MATY hack as well as being stand alone.

[twojeffs]

Not that I'm aware of. The error is caused by something related to the generation of NPCs.

I installed the latest no redundancy hack, which I didn't have before, amd I can now call the exterminator without any problems. 

  However, it the Sim still jumps out of the action when I try to adopt a child.
This isn't a new neighborhood.  I've been playing it for several months.  It also isn't over populated, having about 70 playable Sims.

I checked my vanilla version of the game, and both problems occurred there, with no hacks installed.   I am most thoroughly confused.  I wonder if installing Pets somehow fubared the game's generating NPCs?

With TestingCheatsEnabled I get the following message:

Object Error

N008 User00090
Tessa #452 **
Error: Invalid Species

** This and the User # vary with the Sim actually doing the calling. 

I also have the error log entry if anyone wants to see it, but I thingk it's a little long to put here.

(Invalid Species?? Me or the SIm?)

Oh, and when I shift/click the mailbox with TCE on and try to spawn NPCs "Social Worker" and "Exterminator" are not on the list of NPCs I can spawn.....
