Title: Check this for me Post by: Lerf on 2006 October 21, 18:05:32 I'm having this problem with my regular game and with my vanilla--no CC, no hacks-- version.
Whenever I try to adopt a child or call an exterminator the Sim talks for a few seconds then jumps out of the action. Everything's fine for all the other services including the adopt a pet, though I'll sometimes have to tell them to call services a couple of times without them jumping out. At one point I was getting a "Error-something something--wrong species-something something Cancel Reset Delete" message when I tried to adopt a child. WIll someone else check and see if it's happening to them. Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 October 21, 18:45:17 Make an actual error log, that might help. Other than "Something error something."
Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: twojeffs on 2006 October 21, 19:02:37 Reupdate all of your hacks. That's been fixed.
Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: Lerf on 2006 October 22, 03:49:49 1. I updated all my hacks. It's still happening.
2. I had the problem in a game without any hacks, or custom content. Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: Ndainye on 2006 October 22, 03:58:01 There's been some issues with NPC's spawning that I don't think have been narrowed down to hacks/glitch's if this is a new hood that may not have all the proper NPC's loaded you may wish to use the NPC/Townie spawner to spawn an exterminator and a social worker.
I didn't have a repairman spawned in my current neighborhood and I was getting jumps when trying to call for one, after I spawned a handyman I've had no issues. *edit* attaching error log in case an awesome one wants to take a look.

Make sure you have the latest version.
Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: Ndainye on 2006 October 22, 05:32:24 I don't have antiredundancy installed unless it's piggybacked on another MATY hack as well as being stand alone.
Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: twojeffs on 2006 October 22, 05:39:31 Not that I'm aware of. The error is caused by something related to the generation of NPCs.
Title: Re: Check this for me Post by: Lerf on 2006 October 22, 06:58:11 I installed the latest no redundancy hack, which I didn't have before, amd I can now call the exterminator without any problems.
However, it the Sim still jumps out of the action when I try to adopt a child. This isn't a new neighborhood. I've been playing it for several months. It also isn't over populated, having about 70 playable Sims. I checked my vanilla version of the game, and both problems occurred there, with no hacks installed. I am most thoroughly confused. I wonder if installing Pets somehow fubared the game's generating NPCs? With TestingCheatsEnabled I get the following message: Object Error N008 User00090 Tessa #452 ** Error: Invalid Species ** This and the User # vary with the Sim actually doing the calling. I also have the error log entry if anyone wants to see it, but I thingk it's a little long to put here. (Invalid Species?? Me or the SIm?) Oh, and when I shift/click the mailbox with TCE on and try to spawn NPCs "Social Worker" and "Exterminator" are not on the list of NPCs I can spawn..... |
