Title: Deleting a Pregnancy Controller
Post by: MajorMercedes on 2008 July 18, 21:56:20
Is this possible?
My sims has been stuck at 75 hours pregnant, and I was wondering if there is a way to delete the pregnancy controller and start over again.

Did you try nopregannoy?

I have it.
It was part of the Freetime Director's Cut.  I had a conflict with it, but I deleted the other hack and not nopregannoy.

What exactly does it do?

As you might expect, it stops certain annoyances due to pregnancy.
As a matter of fact, Search is Your Friend:
Nopregannoy eliminates the full-queue-stomp, stomping only the head action (thus keeping macro-requeuers intact), and doesn't bring the camera in to look at it. Because it's not cool to watch.

It won't help your situation, though, I expect. I am fairly sure that what you want to do is possible, but I don't know how.

That's what I thought it did, since it conflicted with a hack that did the same thing.

But tngrspacecadet suggested it, and it sounded like to me that there was something I was missing.

Check that you have the newest version of nopregannoy.  An early version was known to cause this very problem, but it was rectified.  The current one, either in the hack directory or the DC should be fine.

That's where I got it from, the Freetime Director's Cut.
I didn't get it that long ago either, like, maybe a few days.

Insim will allow you to abort the pregnancy, but may not address the cause of the original problem.  The OBJ version for your latest EP should not conflict with Awesome hacks.  It may also allow you to force the birth, so you don't lose the pregnancy/spawn, if you want it.

If you got the DC, you have the lot debugger, in misc/misc. Place it somewhere. Make preggo selectable. Shift-click on the debugger while in debug mode (boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true). Choose "Nuke...pregnancy token". That'll nuke it, and you should be able to start again.

There used to be a way to do this with the Tombstone of Life & Death. Something between Seasons and FT removed it. I remember doing it all the time in my alphabet legacy/apoc meld in Urban Paradise because one of the Gen H girls kept getting stuck at the second trimester for days and days. This was before I had hacks of any sort, so the bug is possible in an unhacked game.

I always wondered why the Lot Debugger didn't have that option!  It did, I just wasn't looking hard enough.

Okay, so now why can't I bloody well spawn the tombstone of L&D?  Can't actually spawn anything.  Some damned hack or CC, possibly Insim?  Say it isn't so.

/me goes off to search his Downloads and mutter to himself.
