Title: All my neighborhoods are empty
Post by: kemowery on 2010 October 30, 06:23:19
I installed Late Night on my desktop, and when I load it up I can load the neighborhoods, but they're devoid of any pregenerated sims.  The "choose a household" option isn't available.

To fix it, I first tried taking out all my mods.  Didn't work.  Uninstalled everything, wiped the registry, and reinstalled.  Didn't work.  Installed Awesomemod 2.0, just in case that did something magic to fix it.  It didn't fix it.

I know it's not a problem with the disc, since I installed it on my laptop and it runs more or less fine. (Just not as well, because my laptop's graphics aren't as beefy.)

So I'm open to suggestions.  Any ideas?

Use a reg cleaner. Advanced Uninstaller Pro worked for me. Took three failed passes at it manually with Ambitions before I resorted to the third-party uninstaller, which works as advertised.

Nope.  That didn't fix it.  I ran Advanced Uninstaller Pro, cleaned the registry, uninstalled each EP, cleaned the registry after each uninstallation, cleaned the registry a final time, reinstalled the main game and the EPs.  Didn't reinstall any mods or even downloads from the sims store.  And still my neighborhoods are vacant.

Prior to using Advanced Uninstaller Pro, I'd tried using CC Cleaner, and that also didn't work.

I also tried copying my Electronic Arts directory from my laptop (where the game works) to my desktop.  Still no dice.

Sigh. I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but: pudding. 240 dollars worth of pudding.

(We had the 240 dollars. We had to have the pudding.)

It's a feature. Late Night now employs Voice Recognition technology. Issue commands to your sims by speaking in a clear and direct fashion, i.e. "SIM. CELLPHONE. DIAL FOR SERVICES."

The technology seems to still be a bit on the buggy side, so if it balks, try raising your voice gradually while speaking directly into your screen.
