I had the same problem. I don't have anything installed but the 'no mosaic' hack and random patterns, Sims Store crap, stuff like that. Anyway, so I did this and it didn't work. I am guessing I lost my hood forever? This makes me so angry. UGH stupid game. 

It worked. Thanks!

Awesome! It's working for me now. Still can't log in though. Should I wait some more for now?

Not working. Not working yet, I suppose. 

Oh, all right then! Thank you for the heads up, will do.

Thank you!

edit: Ugh I can't login, dammit. 

I'm sorry if this is not the place to ask, I just didn't know where else to do it. What with Insim being down, I haven't been able to enter in days. I know there is an updated version of Squinge's "Lecture All" hack for AL. If anyone has it or knows where I can get it other than at Insim since that isn't working for me, I would be forever grateful.

Thanks!
