Yeah i understand that, i ring up the day following the day i went to the lot myself and it's the night after i don't recive any money. (over 24hours)

i've even tried waiting several days just incase it was a bug that was just effecting one day, it doesn't matter how long i leave it the manager gets moody and tells me to stop ringing, and no money arrives, i played though an intire season and nothing changes.

It's also worth noting It only appears to be happening on apartments lots, owners living in houses seem to recive funds normally.

Yeah i wracked about about $30,000 profit in my first day, so i should be seeing at least something i would imagine.

Hi i was wondering if anyone had seen this and could perhaps help me track down the problem.

Since i installed apartment Life i have a problem with my owned business's. Basically what happens is i ask my manager to "watch the store" as usual, go home , "check in with the business" and everything seems fine, the manager does the "everythings fine" "have a nice day off" blurb.

But then when midnight rolls round there is no money sent from the business, the next day if i re-ring the business the manage moans at me for calling again, but yet again when i let midnight roll around no money is sent, basically this go's on indefinatly the manager moans if i try and check in but my business's arn't sending me any money either.

Any idea's what might cause this problem??

Are there any other hacks that do roughly what inteen does?? i'm looking specifically for the ability to have my teens work / get pregant and get married ... kinda vital for my neighbourhood.

Ok i've recently installed bon voyage and Freetime, giving me all expansions upto freetime (i havn't got apartment life yet)

My game seems to work fine for the most part and i've made sure all my hacks etc are freetime compatible, however i seem to have lost the ability to "talk to plants" i can still talk to tree's but not to plants.

Most of my hacks are awesome ones the only none awesome ones i have are "ACR, Inteen and insiminator" which are apparently "freetime compatible"

Any idea's whats causing it??

Erm there seem to be alot of files i hope these are the right logs ...

ive added two different ones

The first error was when dealing with som leftovers ... my sim couldn't seem to get to them and it kept causing it to throw an error.. moving the food seemed to work i just placed it on the floor ad the sim retrived the leftovers and put them in the fridge

The second error that popped up was when my sim tried to use the "basic" sell interaction of a playable shopper called Annabella, the error just canceled the sell interaction, i tried it a few times and each time it drops out of the que.

This seems to be my most frequent error at the moment, its not too back when its just one shoper like in this occasion but when it happens to alot its a pain.

Thats the weird thing nothing new in my game what so every everything thats there has been there for a while.

ok so how do i use boolprop to create an error log??


sorry i know im abit dumb

During the last few days my neighbourhood has gotten buggy. I haven't downloaded anything new and it's been running fine for months before that which leads me to belive its not a "hack or object" causing the problem.

At first i noticed a few of my sims jumping occasionally, then today when i rang a taxi it arrived and the wrong sim got into it ... even though i said on the phone that just 1 sim was leaving the lot.

Then the school bus arrived and my teen refused to get on it saying she had responsibilty's to the little ones dispite there bieng 3 other adult sims on the lot at the time.

Then lastly which playing a business i found i couldn't interact with some of the customers i would que a sales interaction and it would just drop off straight away, and then when i tried to leave the lot 2 customers refused to leave and appeared "stuck".

Any suggestions on how to locate and fix the problem???

Ive always suffered the odd error so i know they are normal, its was just the fact that i was getting so many of them all at once and it's suddenly become and almost constant stream that worried me.

As for search ... yeah i tried that ... Obviously i didn't type in the right words cause i didn't get a hit on your post... i got a few similar posts but no-one solved the problem.

I have tried deleting all the sinks/ baths / sprinklers ... anything water related , but it hasn't helped it's not so much that im getting error's that im getting so many... they compleatly fill my cheat box and continously spam at a very fast speed, if somethings keeping a log of all this its going to get full very very fast.

I've been playing the game fine, however today i noticed when i opened my cheat window i was getting the following Spam message .... and belive me it was really spaming down the screen making it very hard to actually work out what i was donig in in the way of cheat comands.

failed to initialize sound (0xff72154a) instance (000100f4) Error TSAudio failed to get sound definition

Now it's doesn't seem to be effecting my game play at all, though i expect thats because i don't have speakers and therefore don't play with any sound and the error seems to be something to do with sound.

I've tried removing Custom content, and i still get the message, and i've tryed a new neighbour hood so im pretty sure its not caused by Custom Content or a corrupt game file.

I'm tempted to ignore it as its not really effecting the game, but as im worried it might just be the first sign's of a bigger problem anyone got any clues what it means?? or even better how to fix it???

I know re-installing would probabally work.... but  *sigh*... thats such a hassle, so i'd like to see if anyone can offer an alternative.

Ive recently made a new downtown area, using SimCity 4....  however im finding it very laggy i know its probabally something ive done wrong but before i just delete it and try again i was wondering if anyone had any idea whats caused it so i can either have a go fixing it or at least not make the same mistake again.

The main symptom's of something not bieng quite right are :

1) When i use the wallpaper tool it over freezes the game for a few seconds, and im encountering other laggy issues using other ingame tools.

2) postioning lots in the neigbourhood screen is abit off.. i can place them fine but "some of them" it wont let me move afterwards with the move lot tool, although it will let me bulldoze them fine.

3) When i pull up my cheat box it has the following error message.

.\source\tsaudioAmbienceSceneCache.cpp(180)
Error TSAudio : cTSAudioAmbienceSceneCache :: AddNode
FindPartitionContainingPostion failed

A node whose position was outside of the coverage area was used or perhaps the partitions are not set up, or corrupted.


Any ideas?? whats causing it??

Can anyone recomend any good hacks / ways to keep my sims poor??

It doens't seem to take much effort to take a sim and go from broke to 10 bedroom house / sports car / swimingpool rich.... gosh i wish real life was that easy,

I currently use the increased bills package with is great so im looking for more stuff like that.

I know i could use money order to send money to an random pc but im looking for something abit more organised that actually does "get rid" of the money and does it automatically so i don't forget who is suposed to be paying and how much etc.

ok humour me.

Is there any way to delete all the horrid maxis items etc from the game?? when you go to the buy catalog you can delete "CC" ... but it doesn't really delete it.. it just sort of hides it in your game and this is the sort of thing im looking to do for certain maxis items.

I realise the meshes used for these items are the basis for alot of CC so i realise it might not be possible but i really don't want all the horrid junk showing up everytime i want to buy my sim something.

Thank's a ton all deleted... and so far it doens't appear to have done any damage  

I have a long standing neighborhood running, which i want to keep but i accidently attached a sub-neighborhood to it, namely downtown... I play a medieval setting and as you can imagine downtown isn't really in theme.

I was wondering is there anyway of removing the offending sub-neighbourhood?? if not .. if i make a "new custom downtown" and compleatly ignore this one .. is that going to create a ton of new down-townies?? im trying to limit the number of charecters ive got running around the game, ive got the no regen townies hack and id rather like not to create a whole new set.

I've tried bulldozing everything in "downtown" so i can re-build in a more medieval style but even though i have custom dirt roads show up in every one of my other neighbourhoods, downtown isn't grass .. its yukky concreate and my roads don't work on it...

Any suggestions as to get rid / re-vamp or otherwise fix my "evil " subneighorhood most welcome.

 

nope ... you can add as many fish as you like and "fresh food" remains 0. 

ok i know this sounds really dumb .... but anyone know of any hacks that can tell me how many fish are in the fridge??

i know its a silly thing but its bugging me, i have to keep the fish in my inventory because otherwise i end up losing track of how many are in there and i end up having 600 fish sitting in the fridge i could have sold for money.

Keeping them in my inventory is a pain because i want the whole household to have access to them. The game must record how many fish are in the fridge and what types otherwise it wouldn't know when its run out.

It seems silly they didn't add it to the "check food supply's" in the first place... if i want to know how much food is in there, of course i want to include fish ... gah!!!!!

ok not sure this is really the place to put it, but has anyone made or can anyone make new Life Time  wants ..

i have got the hack that allows the career ones to be picked by any asperation, but seriously if i get another family sim with the marry off 6 kids want or another romance sim who wants to be a slacker im going to go insane.... especially as theres all the new cool jobs included in alot of the EP's that don't come up.   

Not to mention the pleasure sim asperations that just plain suck..sure 50 first dates or dream dates is fun once.. or twice .. but with a neighbourhood population of over 200 im going to go insane if i have to go though that one again.

not asking for anything fancy maybe just some to include the new careers.. anything would be helpful.
