Title: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: kiki on 2008 July 19, 06:23:04 since installing the ikea stuff pack, I've noticed a curious bug with my phones - I can't call out at all to other sims, only NPCs (if a sim tries to call another sim they pick up the phone, pick the name of the sim to call, then "jump" back to the standing still infront of the phone as though they had never tried to make a call) with the exception being the headmaster; if I try and call the headmaster, I get a popup of "prank call sim" with all available sims that I know on the list to possibly prank.
hack conflictor says I'm all peachy, I've not DLed anything new since installing ikea stuff and I've updated my directors' cut hacks to the newest possible (as they're all I use). halp?

This is a known issue with IKEA. Use search (Keyword: IKEA) to find other threads where this is discussed. There may be a workaround or fix posted. (I do not have IKEA for precisely this reason). Title: Re: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: Crash on 2008 July 20, 21:47:54 I have the same problem kiki, except I haven't tried phoning the headmaster.
I made a search, and besides re downloading the dc I will delete the cache file, and replace the phones. I am confused because the problem was fixed in a previous version. Unfortunately I can't remember if it was before or after I patched my game. I'll advice you to try the same. I'll let you know how it goes. /Crash EDIT: it didn't work. I have problems with the jump again. I remember distinctly that it was fixed - the time before last I played it worked perfectly. And suddenly it doesn't. I have no idea why.

Title: Re: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: Crash on 2008 July 21, 15:09:40 Yes, I will download the Director's cut again. Lets hope it works this time :P
Thanks. /Crash Title: Re: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: Crash on 2008 July 22, 01:06:03 I re-downloaded the director's cut, deleted cache, and loaded my game. Jump bug still occurs. I only have the awesomeware. I don't get it.
Care to take a look at another object error? EDIT: sorry for double post. Title: Re: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2008 July 22, 03:56:15 You have pulled a Ness, then. This error was fixed ages ago, so if you're still seeing it with a new DC, you're running an oldversion of a hack hiding somewhere. The Phone Hack frequently smuggles itself in with lots.
Title: Re: I musta dun brokded it - phone interactions borked Post by: Jelenedra on 2008 July 22, 16:15:51 I can attest to this, updating hacks after installing IKEA SP resulted in no moar phone bug.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check my download folder with clean installer to see if there's an old doublet somewhere. Yes, that's probably it. If not, I'm definitely seeing things. ::)The weird thing is I remember it being fixed. I got the bug after installing IKEA, then I downloaded your update, and no more bug. Then suddenly it has appeared again. I'll clean out my hack folder and re-download again. But you're probably right that it's a doublet. Gah, that should teach me to use clean installer every time I download a lot. It never occurred to me that could be it, because I almost never download lots. Doh! :P I need an OMGUS stamp on my forehead. :D |
