Title: Bodyshop Post by: ChibyMethos on 2006 November 09, 17:15:32 Does anyone else's version of Bodyshop for OMGPets not work? I'm having to use the Glamour Bodyshop.
Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: Ivy on 2006 November 09, 17:21:30 The first time I ran Bodyshop after installing Pets, it took a long long long time to open (compared to pre-Pets of course). Then I found I had an excess abundance of "glasses" that aren't actually glasses at all...do a search for that issue, it's still unresolved.
So do I think Bodyshop got borked somehow with Pets? You betcha. It doesn't surprise me if you can't get it to work. Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: ChibyMethos on 2006 November 09, 17:29:27 Mine opened and all I had was a black screen. I did it again and I got all college students. So I went back to Glamour's Body shop and it seem to work fine. I was just wondering if I was alone out there.
Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: Ivy on 2006 November 09, 17:53:13 Definitely not alone with bodyshop weirdness after installing Pets. :) Haven't had your exact issue, but there's definitely something wrong with it.
Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: ZiggyDoodle on 2006 November 09, 22:12:23 Mine opened - after a long wait as noted by Ivy. Also seems to work okay but I didn't actually create anything. Only reason I opened it was to see if a new and rather nice business outfit I had seen while outfitting a new employee could be imported into the game.
Didn't show up in th Pets BS - noted that BS is also listed as an OFB program - are these two separate programs?

Yes.Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: ZiggyDoodle on 2006 November 09, 22:19:41 Thanks, Venusy. Will try the the OFB version. Funny I never saw those outfits before EP4 was installed, but could be I didn't look that hard.
Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: chordin on 2006 November 11, 08:13:22 Quote As it stands right now, with Pets installed, basically everything that we create in Bodyshop is NOT compatible without Pets installed and this certainly isn't fair to those who have not purchased the game for whatever reason. We have made an attempt to appeal to Maxis and get our issued addressed but they ignore us so the choice is yours.... Do you want Pets or Custom Content? An announcement in insimenator. http://www.insimenator.net/announcement.php?f=23&a=49 WTF! ??? Edit: Ok, apparently it's true. (I must have been living in a barrel...) Numenor has already made a new "legacy bodyshop" for that. http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=201322 Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: Ivy on 2006 November 11, 17:00:26 Well there ya go, yet another reason to be cautious of any CC clothing that you download...
I'll add that to the back of my mind for issues for folks to check for when they say such and such isn't working...grrr. In the meantime, I think it's very clear that an update for the pets version of bodyshop is desperately needed for the issues mentioned here as well as there. Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: chordin on 2006 November 11, 18:17:10 I really would like to know if they have made some necessary updates or do they just want to make us all buy OMGPETZ. And wouldn't it be nice if they decided that it's "necessary" to make updates to every new bodyshop in the future EPs.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be surprised... Just how arrogant can they be? They make us products with full of bugs, spyware and incompatibilities, and because they don't have any real competitors, they can do it. I feel like a sheep and that's really depressing. Title: Re: Bodyshop Post by: miros on 2006 November 11, 20:11:18 Probably it's as easy as lopping out a resource. I'll have to test this later.
