Title: Disposing Balloons causes Macrotastics Error (Error Log) Post by: Magicmoon on 2007 August 08, 07:19:28 I rarely throw parties and never use the Maxis balloon centerpieces, but my daughter always does. She just uses another neighborhood in my game, so we share the Downloads folder and what affects one game affects the other. That said, every time she uses the Maxis balloons she has a problem at cleanup time.
The error occurs whenever someone tries to dispose of them in a regular Maxis trash can. The error is thrown by both Macrotastics when told to Macro>clean, and Christianlov's NPCs, if they are the ones to clean up. She is unsure whether she gets an error if a Sim is directed to throw them away. Here is one example from her error logs. Can someone tell me what the problem is?

I think I've encountered the balloon centerpiece bug before, but was never able to reproduce it, and couldn't find any apparent cause.

The balloon problem for her has been an ongoing one, dating way back to a couple of expansions ago. But before now, she had her own computer with her own downloads folder, and she had some pretty strange stuff in it. So I never reported the error. Since then, her game completely blew up (big surprise considering her non-awesome usage). So now she uses a neighborhood off of my game so I can keep her from driving me nuts with errors. So now that I know what she is using in her game, I felt the error needed reported. She has errors every time she disposes of the balloons. She states that she has always thrown away the balloons after they have deflated, and not tried throwing them away while they still contain 'air'. |
