I just installed Ambitions and updated my game & mods yesterday. I've noticed that since then, sometimes when my sims are active, I can't see any of the map tags. I've tried clicking around to switch the view from all to friends homes to work places, but nothing works. However, if I change my active sim, that sim will see maptags. Is there any reason why certain sims shouldn't see maptags?

Edit: Ok, now one of my sims' motives are rapidly lowering. This isn't happening to anyone else in her household. It started right after she searched for clues at someone's house. Is there anything I can do?

Uninstalling AM fixed both of these problems, but I don't want to play without it.

Edit #2: Does the new version of AM not work with the new version of supercomputer? Because separately they work fine, but I realized that together they were causing these problems. Is anyone else having similar problems?

um, because it takes time and patience to help others and I wanted to let the people who helped me know that they're not just wasting they're time and I'm actually listening to them

Ok I reinstalled everything, and the patch installed this time. Now all I need to do is make sure my game and cc runs correctly...

I tried installing the patches manually from simsprograms.com and I still got the "invalid file found" error. That website said to look at Delphy's Patch Log Viewer if I had that problem. I tried the log viewer and it told me I had a problem applying DFC update for 'Game\Bin\code_version.txt'.  I have no idea what that means or how to fix it.

ok, thanks. i know this wasn't an AM problem, but the sims 3 forums aren't loading for some reason. 

My game is trying to make me update too. When the launcher loads, it tells me my base game is incompatible with my expansion pack. But it IS compatible with WA because I have all the updates up to 1.10.6 and I don't have Loft Stuff. It won't let me click play or anything else on the launcher except to update. I tried updating and it told me there was a script error, which I assume is because I don't have Loft Stuff? So I can't update or play my game.

Also, I did not do this but now I have a mods/ files folder in my World Adventures folder that has the resource file in it.

I know someone already asked this but... I just installed World Adventures today. I uninstalled all of my mods and I'm pretty sure I installed framework correctly (I checked about 5 times). I had to update it to version 2.3 because my base game is updated to 1.8. Now my game will not load unless awesomemod is uninstalled.  Also, does it matter if I start the game with either the World Adventures starter or the regular Sims 3 starter?

here is how my game is set up:
electronic arts/ the sims 3/ game/ bin/ d3dx9_31.dll
electronic arts/ sims 3 world adventures/ resource
electronic arts/ sims 3 world adventures/ game/ bin/ d3dx9_31.dll
electronic arts/ sims 3 world adventures/ game/ bin/ gameplay
electronic arts/ sims 3 world adventures/ mods/ packages/ awesomemod

No, I don't and the weird thing is that I've only noticed it with one sim so far.

Actually, this mod always worked for me with AM. I understand what a core mod is and that it usually shouldn't work, but this one did. I thought maybe the reason why it wasn't working had to do with the social interactions.

Another problem I'm having is that when I'm playing with Bob Newbie (who is the only sim I have encountered with this problem) he sometimes loses his social interactions with Betty Simovich. He didn't lose them with any other sim except her.

The new version of AM with patch 1.7 doesn't work with http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=348890&c=1&ht=0&page=2&pp=25. All social interactions are gone when you have it installed. I just thought I would let everyone know, because it probably doesn't work with other teen pregnancy mods either.

I fixed my problem! For anyone else who has the same problem, go here:

I realized that I was downloading patch 1.4.6 without having dowloaded any of the other patches first. You have to go from 1.0 to 1.4.6.

Yeah, I had the "ask if single" mod.

New problem:
I reinstalled my game last night, and I'm trying to update it to the 1.4.6 patch. Everytime I try to download it, from any website, it doesn't work.
I just tried downloading from
http://www.filefront.com/14219343/The-Sims-3-v.-1.4.6-Full-Patch/
and I get a pop up that says: "The setup has detected that the installed game region for this update is incorrect. This update requires a different game region to be installed."
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I think it was the patch because I uninstalled awesomemod. I'm uninstalling/reinstalling my game now 
Where can I find patch 1.4?

I accidentally installed the new patch with AM already installed. I had to uninstall it to play, but as I'm playing I have no social interactions. When I click on a sim, I can only scare them. Is this a problem with the patch or is it because I downloaded the patch with AM installed? Because I've heard that you're supposed to delete all download files before updating or that can cause problems.

Thank you, and you're right. EA story mode is made of fail. People keep moving even after I disabled story mode!

So without ISM installed, none of the story mode features will work? Because that's what it says here: http://alpha.moreawesomethanyou.com/ts3/awesome/rtfm.txt

For example, on the EA story mode features:
6.  No One Gets Out Alive [Optional - Default: Enabled]
     Sim households are not permitted to simply "move out" of the neighborhood,
     destroying the sims you probably created at random.

will this still work if I don't have ISM?

Ok thanks 

I couldn't find an older version, but my game stopped crashing. I deleted the AwesomeMod from my mods/packages folder so I could play the game, and it works now, but the AwesomeMod is still installed. Obviously this isn't a problem because I can play and I still have AM, but I was just wondering why that is. If I really did want to uninstall the AM, how would I do it? I installed with the Helper Monkey, so would I have to delete it from the program files?

Also, this may be an extremely stupid question, but I am confused about something. On the AM story mode features, it says, "This feature will do nothing if you do not have the ISM driver installed."
What is the ISM driver? I guessed that it is the Indie-Stone Mod, but that doesn't work with the newest patches and I don't have it. Does that mean that none of the story mode features work on my game at all?

So, should I save it to my windows/system folder? Or does it still work if it's just in my game/bin folder?

This may seem like a stupid question, but what is the d3dx9_31.dll file for? I put it in my game/bin folder. When I installed the monkey installer thing, it said on its list of features that it "Automatically copies in the d3dx9_31.dll file needed for AwesomeMod." Why does AwesomeMod need this file?

I just got a new hard drive and I had to reload everything onto my computer, including TS3. I had the older version of AM that someone posted on here because the newer one caused my game to crash when I loaded a lot. I can't find the older version anymore. I went back to the post, but the older version isn't on there anymore. Could someone post a link to it or tell me how to stop my game from crashing?

I've been playing since the game came out, and it usually saves fine. Last week I had to completely restore my computer and I had to reinstall TS3. My sister was the first to play after I reinstalled it, and she made a town. I just started playing again yesterday and I made my own town, and today when I loaded the game again, her town was gone. I realized that I must have accidentally overwritten her game. Today, she played again and made herself another town (new game on the main menu). And when she went to save, it told her that another save file already existed, and asked if she wanted to overwrite it. I told her to just overwrite it because I didn't do a lot on my town and I didn't care. Then I went on the main menu and clicked new game and as soon as it loaded I went to save it to see what would happen and again, it asked me if I wanted to overwrite. This has never happened to me before. I have 4 open spaces for new games, but it keeps wanting to overwrite the one I have. Before I restored my computer, I had 3 games saved. I installed the awesome mod last night, and I also have a mod for teen woohoo/pregnancy. Does anyone think that could be the problem?

Oh ok thanks 

Oh, is that what it enables? Relationships with teens? And what are the consequences?

And I just tried to play for the first time since I installed the awesome mod and my game now crashes everytime I go on a lot.
