Title: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Auntie on 2006 October 28, 18:29:43 Has anyone tried the barber chair since installing pets? Mine isn't working properly, no sims standing in slack-faced trance while their buy bar fills up. They'll take a free makeover alright but nobody's buying.
Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Motoki on 2006 October 28, 18:59:42 Hmm, it used to be like that for me before the OFB patches (forget which one seemed to fix it for me). I bet they went and used old prepatch OFB code to roll over into OMGPETS!!111oneoneoneone

Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Auntie on 2006 October 29, 13:02:49 Well, isn't that just special? Can't reinstall the patch, says it is up to date. What now?
Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Motoki on 2006 October 29, 13:06:52 He made a test fix for it here:
http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/pets/test/salonfix-petsp0.package You could give that a try. Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 October 30, 22:31:16 Really? That's odd. My sims can use it just fine...
I'm pretty sure they are buying things normally... Home or business lots? My beauticians are all on home lots. Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: MistyBlue on 2006 October 30, 23:29:23 I'm having a problem with all community lot items except the cash registers. Today's the first time I sent a sim to a community lot. When she got there (restaurant), the host, servers, and cooks never showed up. I also tried sending the same sim to a hair salon and club...again, the salon worker wasn't there and neither was the dj or the bartender. Is anyone having these kind of problems?
Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Sketch Elder on 2006 November 01, 14:52:11 Seems a bit obvious, but have you checked whether you still have a price set and a stylist assigned? Or, for the restaurant, a menu, price, host, and chef? I know the ticket machine got turned off at one of my home businesses when I installed Pets.
Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: MistyBlue on 2006 November 01, 15:55:55 No, they aren't owned businesses. I don't have anything owned at the moment. I thought the game was just supposed to spawn the characters like in nightlife.
Title: Re: Ug-no-more don't work no more Post by: Auntie on 2006 November 01, 19:30:45 Okay. Tried the test fix, salon chair worked properly. Yay!
My guy owns multiple lots, so when he got home he tried check in with all businesses but one manager on another business could not be found. Since the call worked the previous "night", I'm wondering if the salon fix somehow affected it? I have the missing manager fix, 10-26-06, and the remotebusiness fix which I think is 10-09. It just infuriates me that Maxis would release this totally unplayable code. Especially after the whole fiasco that was the OFB release.
