Title: Disappearing Wants Post by: Becky on 2009 February 21, 22:47:24 Hello,
I've done searches but haven't found info about exactly the same issue. My child sims' wants & fears will disappear (not just the images, because there is no scroll-over text). Once it starts happening to a child, it will persist until they become a teen. When the wants & fears reroll, they will all be there for a second or so before they disappear. Wants & fears that are locked do not disappear. This happens to all or almost all of the children, and I have yet to detect a pattern. Does anyone know if there are particular types of hacks that can create disappearing wants & fears? I saw speculation on one thread that phone hacks may mess with wants & fears, but the issue wasn't exactly the same. This has been happening for a long time, so I know it isn't anything I've downloaded recently. Other than that, I have no idea which hacks to suspect. I have all EPs up to Seasons, plus the H&M stuff pack. Thanks for any and all assistance. Title: Re: Disappearing Wants Post by: Gwill on 2009 February 21, 23:47:44 Probably hack conflict.
Do binary search. Title: Re: Disappearing Wants Post by: rufio on 2009 February 22, 02:43:47 This used to happen to me a lot, and I fixed it by removing wfsanity. No hack conflicts had been detected, other than known conflicts with twojeffs hacks that were supposed to cause no problems.

Otherwise, sometimes wants just go blank because your SWAFs have been truncated, so your sims don't have anything to want.
Title: Re: Disappearing Wants Post by: rufio on 2009 February 22, 05:03:01 Well, I don't remember if I was playing with debug mode on at the time, so I suppose there could have been errors that I didn't see. I don't particularly miss wfsanity now, though, and a hack that I made is very occasionally throwing wants controller errors for no apparent reason, so if that ever gets resolved I'll put it back in to see if it still happens.
Title: Re: Disappearing Wants Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2009 February 22, 17:40:18 If you're dabbling in hacks, especially making your own, you pretty much should just autoload in debug and stay that way.
