The really weird thing about my experience is that I didn't patch or anything. It shouldn't just stop working all of a sudden, I have the correct version of it. You wouldn't think a mod would magically change in my folder to a higher version, would it? That's the only thing I can think of (which is completely ridiculous). I downloaded the skill book mod when the highest patch was 1.7.9, which is my game version.
But since reinstalling, all the mods are back in, including the skill mod. Everything works fine. It must have been something else. I guess I'll never know.

I don't use awesomemod. I had all my .package format files in subfolders, and put all my mods in a folder called hacks. I removed all of them and deleted the cache files also. I have now started a fresh install, and the problem is fixed. I even put my backup of the packages folder back in with all my mods from before and everything's fine. I was really hoping I wouldn't have to do this, but I jumped the gun and did it. Thank you very much for your help.

Thanks for the reply. I checked all other saves, nobody else can interact either. Looking at TSR, MTS, and the official forums, I have found this problem has just started to crop up. Most of the threads I read are from people who have just patched and have WA, like I said before. I really haven't come across a fix for it yet, everyone keeps saying "conflicting mods". How do mods conflict when they're NOT INSTALLED?
I guess it's time for a fresh install. If this happens again, I give up.

Well, I would provide you a list of the sites I went to, but you wouldn't want that, now would you? I know you're a smart guy. I was actually hoping someone like you would respond to my question. I just want to know more about my game and how it works. You come out with some great downloads. I just wish you were a little more polite to people that are dimwits like me.
Also, if it was a conflicting mod, why is the problem still there after I removed them all (pertaining to my no interaction problem)? I said I removed them in my first post. Clearly I'm not THAT stupid. I have been playing since TS1. I think I have a basic knowledge of how things work. Usually when there's a bug like this, there's some oddball fix.

Claeric, you're a dick. I certainly didn't need to read all that, as soon as I saw your name I knew it was a bunch of shit. People on this site are a lot smarter than me, obviously. That's why I came here for help. I have searched on this topic. I found nothing that helped fix it. I know it's not a mod conflict. Trying to fix my first problem, I removed all mods after posting this. Same results. All I want to know is if there's a fix for no interactions whatsoever.
As for the skill books not appearing, I know it was a problem with the mod. That's why I removed it with the kind, helpful advice I got from Cadiva over at TSR. I was just asking why all of a sudden the mod didn't work anymore. I have not installed anything since the problem started yesterday.

I'm glad I got one helpful response. I knew I was taking a risk asking this here, since there is no tolerance on this site for asking a simple question. I moved them next door, same problem. I've having the same problem with every save game I have. I ran the dashboard, no conflicting mods. The mods I have have worked together for months now.

I'm sorry, but I don't know what that means.

I made a new couple. They're married, but the only interaction I got with either of them to do is "Mean...Scare"
Her traits are loves outdoors, hopeless romantic, green thumb, artistic, and lucky. His are good sense of humor, loves outdoors, natural cook, family oriented, and angler.
"Mean" shouldn't even be an option, I would think.
I spent the first day building skills and gardening, and didn't try to make them interact until the second day.
Also, I tried to get them on the bed to relax, seeing if they would cuddle, but she got up, laid back down, then he disappeared through the wall to the outside. I switched beds to an EA bed thinking maybe it was a poorly made bed, but still the same results.
After reading that taking out mods can help, I removed mine. That didn't fix it. Now the problem is only worse. They have no interactions available at all.                                                      This problem is popping up all of a sudden with quite a few people. It's really odd because every other person I've read about just updated and have WA.
I didn't change anything in my game before this happened, and delete cache files every time I play. I also tried resetsim, that did nothing. I'm patched up to 1.7.9 with the base game only, and refuse to patch any further.
Has anyone seen this before?

My second problem is that all of a sudden I can no longer buy skill books at the library when I have the faster skills mod from MTS. I haven't downloaded a new version of it or anything, I have the one that was made back when 1.7.9 was the latest patch. Can mods like this become outdated somehow? I know that this is the mod that caused the problem because it's the only thing I removed, then the books were back.

After reading all the bad things about pretty much every patch that came out, I think I'll pass on that. That's why I'm still unpatched. Thanks for trying to help though.

I run an unpatched game without WA. I saved a household to the bin to move it from Sunset Valley to Riverview. I demolished the house when I got in there because it was built on a cliff and didn't look right on the new lot. Before demolishing, I put all the furniture in the household inventory box in buy mode. My problem is, when I put all the appliances back into the newly-built house, they all make the rooms flash dark then light, like the lights are going on and off. It happens when the camera is not moving in live mode, so I know it's not the metal reflecting off of anything like it tends to do. I took the metal pattern off of them and changed it to white from the misc. category. Same problem. Then, I replaced all the appliances to different ones. Same problem. What the hell is the matter with my game? I've never seen this happen before, and I've never seen anyone else with this problem. It's getting really annoying and I'm hoping someone on here will tell me what's going on, since you all seem to be pretty helpful and smart. Thanks.

The fastest way to do it is to start out with no windows. Then make one, change it to the color/texture you want and use the eyedropper on it after you placed it to make the rest of them. You don't have to save or drag anything.

Being a dumbass, I didn't realize all of my mods wouldn't work when I installed the newest patch. The No Mosaic and Faster Skill Gain mods from MTS don't work, and I can't play the game without them. I don't want to wait until they're updated, so I'm uninstalling my game right now. I've lost alot of custom content since downloading the patch also, even though I put them back in their original places.
I need to know if the patch will still be in any of the folders I've backed up. I have a copy of The Sims 3 from My Computer and the one from My Documents on my desktop. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I never really got into game mods for the sims 2, so this is all new to me. I never patched my game before either, which was probably a good thing.

Update:
I re-installed and over-wrote everything in My Documents/The Sims 3. I tried to go into my family, and it got done loading the lot, then the screen went black and it said "A serious problem happened when loading "Me" We strongly suggest you restart the application"
I quit the game, copied everything from my My Computer/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 folder. I figured I had to do this since maybe a file was missing that I needed in order for my saved game to work. Now the damn patch is back on my game.
Should I just start over or does someone know of a specific thing from My Computer/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 that needs to be added back in for my saved game to work?
