Title: Teens can't argue with parents?! Post by: SimGeekChick on 2007 May 18, 22:45:56 I have all the expansions and stuff packs. The first thing I did was to take out all my (few) downloads, and at the time I had no hacks installed.
I was trying to get Lilith Pleasant to run away when I noticed that she was missing most of the actions under the irritate option. She can still argue, gross out, etc Angela and other teens, but the only option available when irritating an adult is throw drink. It's the same with the adults, no options for irritating teens except throw drink. Force error > reset did nothing, and when I checked another house (Broke) I had the same problem. Now I was pretty certain that teens could argue with their parents before (and vice versa), so I uninstalled all but the base game, let it regen the neighborhoods fresh and loaded up. Sure enough, Lilith had the options back to irritate her parents like a good teen should have! I installed Pets again with just the base game, and bingo, the options disappeared again. Am I the only one with this problem, or is this yet another thing that was broken by Pets? Title: Re: Teens can't argue with parents?! Post by: SimGeekChick on 2007 May 19, 02:36:21 curiouser and curiouser: I just did a complete reinstall of everything up to GLS (no pets or newer) and I have the same problem. Did Maxis decide teens and adults shouldn't irritate each other at some point? Can someone else please tell me if they still have teen/adult irritations?

Title: Re: Teens can't argue with parents?! Post by: SimGeekChick on 2007 May 19, 06:42:27 Hmm. Well, I have no idea how to fix this! I asked on the offical BBS and so far one person has said he has the same problem. It's not a big game breaking thing but it's quite irritating that the game's not working as it should. Any ideas?

Title: Re: Teens can't argue with parents?! Post by: SimGeekChick on 2007 May 19, 07:02:48 Oh I know, that's why I checked with just the original game. It was low enough for her to do it then, and after having her father throw a drink in her face she positively hates him! Still nothing.
Title: Re: Teens can't argue with parents?! Post by: reese on 2007 May 19, 23:16:45 I've been having the same issue for as long as I can remember (which would extend to probably Uni or NL). I never knew there were ever options to irritate parents beyond drink-throwing! But if someone could find a way to enable those actions, it would be lots of fun. ;D
