Title: CAS & Pets Post by: ElenaRoan on 2006 October 28, 07:25:56 It's probably just me having been dumb but I can't for the life of me figure out how. I've just installed Pets, thought I'd updated everything I needed to and removed anything that could cause a problem. Went into CAS to create some sims as I wanted to make a family that bred dogs and cats to explore it all...it had been ok when I explored the breeds on my first load but I hadn't made any at that point just looked around then went and played the Kats family for a bit (I don't like leaving occupied lots in the catalogue). Went to create the humans first, first thing I noticed was she wasn't standing on the round rug but back against the wall. She rotated fine so I just thought it a weird bug, until I clicked 2 to go onto her face...the camera then slid through the wall, past the second room (the photography room) and out the wall...going back to 1 didn't move the camera but clicking 2 again moved it further. I ended up creating 2 sims 'blind' hoping that then creating a pet might put the camera back where it was supposed to be...no such luck...saved the family and went back in to create the pet portions...the camera was in exactly the same position (middle of nowhere below the 'ground' and out beyond the lot borders...looked weird just hanging there in space). Turned on testing cheats in the hope that it might have something that could help me get the camera back to where it was supposed to be...and promptly realised that it wouldn't help me at all without being able to click on anything. So I tried right clicking on the small section of wall that I could still see and got an error with a sim (I think), probably the cat I was creating, and then crashed.
I'd attach the error log except I have no idea where it's located, I don't usually run into big problems...I've probably been lucky that way...the few times I have had problems it's been something stupid I've done and it's pretty easy to figure out...this time I have no clue what I could have done; I don't mess with the CAS lot, don't have a camera hack in with Pets and the last time I did was with Nightlife. I have all the expansions and the Party Pack, but not Family Fun Stuff (never will) or Glamour Life (maybe at some point). Help?

Then sort the files with last modified. The one with the most recent date is usually that one. Also, only attach logs that begin with "Object Error" the others are pointless.

I've been checking for updates and from what had been said I'd honestly thought that aside from some slightly weird behaviours it didn't actually cause anything major, I stand corrected. Though if I remember correctly; when I first went through the whole update hacks thing I thought I'd seen a pets update, though I obviously must have misread, which would explain why it wasn't actually removed in the first place. I'm not usually that dumb *grin* Title: Re: CAS & Pets Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2006 November 01, 22:18:50 (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/crapola/kittenkiller.jpg)
