notownieregen, antiredundancy and Pets

[chickeessims]

I recently downloaded the "notownieregen" and the "antiredundancy" hacks.

I then installed Pets (I got it for christmas) and then reinstalled the hacks. I then used the cheat "deletecallcharacters" so my neighbourhood was completely empty and started my hood story and playing with my families and sims. When it came to Ringing for a maid or an exterminator (and any other person under the service category) My sim would do the actions like they were calling for a service sim, and then the game would jump them back, and no dialogues would appear to ask me if i wanted to hire someone.

I then reinstalled the entire game and tried again with the hacks, and yet again it hasn't worked.

I was wondering if you knew a) why it was doing this and b) how I could get around this or Reset my NPCs.

It used to let me hire Maids etc when I only had OFB even if i did "deleteallcharacters" and had the hacks installed.

Thanks
Becky

Two problems there:
1) Service calls are broken in Pets. Get the fix.
2) Deleteallcharacters slightly corrupts a 'hood. There is a better way to start with a clean 'hood.

Actually, DAC doesn't corrupt a hood, but it also doesn't fully clean out the files and you will need to do pass in SimPE to nuke dangling data and reset the creation index.
