Apartment Life Borkiness, or how i ended the world in 1 hour.

[Aner-Dyfan]

Forgot: I can't seem to find an option to vibrate the More Romantic Awesome Than You bed. Very cruel joke, as EAxis should know that nothing associated with MATY would be borked.

Relax on the bed first, then click on bed again. You have "Read" "Day Dream" and "Vibrate"

[X-Phile]

Maybe it is just this 1 teen, Tara DeBateau, that can't work out by using
the expensive radio that came with GLS. Or it is a problem with every teen.
As soon as I click on work out the que drops and I can't select work out again.
Only when she does something, but it still drops out of que.

I tried this, and Vibrate was not an option. I did not test both sims on the bed, however.

I had that problem with just the base game.  Some teens just refuse to work out on the stereo, it seems.

Some sims have ADD. I know that FT sims had a hard time studying parenting if their fun was full. If the fun motive is maxed out and you're getting sims that won't study, work out, or whatever. Try dragging their fun down or make them concentrate.

Also, for future reference. DO NOT POST about errors in your game if you have inteenimator or insimenator installed. You should've removed those hacks before installing your game. People can't get around to fixing REAL errors if you clutter up the thread with issues that should be taken to the right forum.

This happens here every EP.

I tried this with two sims relaxing on the bed, on both sims. No "Vibrate" option, either on self-click or other-click. I'll try some more tonight.

You're meant to click on the bed aren't you, not either of the sims?

Car Alarm installation - boned doberman edition

Selecting the "install alarm" on a car causes your sim to drive off, then suddenly re-appear in the middle of the lot with the car in the driveway.  The alarm is not installed, but the funds are deducted.
This happened with 3 cars I tested (2 maxis download cars, 1 nightlife "standard") on a home lot.  Maybe it only works in apartments now, will test further.

[Zazazu]

I tried that as well. I was clicking every which way.

[Catju]

Nope, still have the same bugs. The Sims 3 still doesn't work (it has a flashing blue screen). The SSX-game works fine, though.

And my sims still keep WooHooing in the closet the same way. This time the husband did get out of the toilet with WooHoo on his queue, after his wife had already got pregnant.

Oh, and Humble's computer is also invisible.

[KLGFCG]

Well, I've played for about 3 hours now and knock wood, remarkedly little borkedness.

I was all prepared to come here and back-up Zaza's "no vibrate" problem, but I think I've got it figured out. If a single sim is relaxing on the bed, the vibrate option is available on the bed or the sim. Add a second sim relaxing and no more vibrate option anywhere... borked, I thought. Then I checked the nevah, evah wrong Prima Guide and it indicated that two sims have to be cuddling to get the vibrate option back. Haven't gone back in the game yet to make sure, but that seems reasonable. Also, per the Prima Guide, any nested actions with that cuddle will maintain vibration... e.g. cuddle>vibrate>makeout>woohoo... the vibrating won't stop until the sims break out of the cuddle interaction.

I have no problems placing a helicopter on a roof. Are you using the helipad in driveways to place the helicopter, Aner-Dyfan? It went on the roof fine for me with no cheats, helicopter was useable, no problems. The only place I couldn't place the helipad (and, ergo, the helicopter) was inside, and really, why would you put a helicopter inside unless you had a nifty opening roof?

No problems with color options for the FT nursery stuff here.

The new wall height thing also works on cc paintings (well, at least the one I tested), so YAY! I was scared that I was going to have to update all my paintings to use the new function.

I did get the neighbors running into my playable's apartment when my sim was giving birth... that'll get annoying. IRL, the neighbors WOULD NOT be invited to my (hypothetical, never to happen) home birth unless them came bearing enough Fentanyl and Morphine to knock out a rhino.
 
I'm also getting the ADD on the new bookcase skills, but I think it might be related to maxed out fun. The sims are also getting off the piano when their fun is maxed, which is a PITA. This Eaxian obsession with kicking sims off skill-building fun objects once their fun is maxed out... DO NOT LIKE.

ETA: Well, that was too good to last. Apparently, apartments cannot be on beaches. It fucks the lot so everything around it (including the ocean) is floating up in the air. Great job on that, Eaxis. 'Cuz weren't beach lots the hot new thing just a few EP's ago?

[Aner-Dyfan]

Well Belladonna isn't flat like I initially thought. One more useless hood to be added to the list.

[Catju]

Took me long enough, but I finally figured out that I should test if other FT items work. They didn't. So at some point installing AL borked my FT install. So.. Never mind that bug, I'll re-install both.

Worst thing about this one?  EAxis knew about it and couldn't be bothered to fix it -- check out the readme.  I don't know about you, but I'm always happy to receive a big middle finger from a multi-bajillion dollar conglomerate.

So is this EP the worst load of borklocks to be released yet?

[blackcat]

Well, at least primp is still there, which kinda surprises me actually. I guess all their attention went into not forgetting that one.

Now, it seems I can't move inhabited apartments from place to place. Can still move other lots and uninhabited apartments. Anyone else can confirm this?

[Twiki]

Are the Nightlife hood-deco buildings missing from the catalog now, or did I screw something up? I could have sworn they were on the last tab where the new AL deco buildings are, but they're not showing up for me. As near as I can tell, all other objects from NL *are* showing up though.

I dunno. The BV spawning fiasco was pretty freaking bad. It would take a lot to trump that.

The cellphone is useless for incoming calls.  When they try to answer the damn things just disappear from the inventory.

[IAmTheRad]

After I put in the DC, I've gotten TONS of errors. Most of them result in the sim reseting and therefore the queue being crashed. Also, on community lots, the sims that aren't playable just stand there doing nothing

This is already the case in my game, and I have not installed AL yet.  The only real problems it causes is that if I exit while the sim is on the cellphone and there are no other phones in the house, other sims can't call them.  This is easily solved by just canceling the talking-on-phone interaction before exiting.

Dude, there isn't a DC for AL yet.

[Jelenedra]

There is an AL hack directory already though.

There isn't?
