AwesomeMod Bug Report Thread

[Nienor]

Now my game has problems with having kittens. It crashed twice in the row when the birth started; as I had gone to a pre-conception save the second time and had the cats have another go at it, the two births were at different times, so I doubt it was anything else happening at the same time. The birth worked without issue when I removed AM; it was a save made with an already pregnant cat that had previously crashed, too.

Some of the confusion may be coming from the fact that there is still an older test version in the test folder on the alpha.moreawesomethanyou.com site.  I think some people may be downloading that and assuming it's the latest version.

That was not the case with me. I downloaded from here. However, I downloaded AM again today (from the Shiny! thread), and the game is no longer whining about it being outdated. Either the FOJ fixed the problem, or it was PEBKAC all along.

Yes, I didn't get the whine about having an outdated mod when I used the mod form the shiny thread, but I still had the game crash when I tried to move someone with the phone/computer.  Moving from Edit Town is fine.  My only comfort at this point is the hysteria that will occur when University Life comes out with it's own special issues.

It was neither.  Alpha and gamma mirrors link to the new AM while beta is the January version, and the Configurator links to the beta mirror AM.

That's nice. Care to give the links indicating which are alpha and gamma?

[Chain_Reaction]

The ones that say "alpha" and "gamma" in them.

Just wanted to add I got mine from the alpha mirror so it's not out dated. I removed all other mods and it still crashes every time at the same time. If I reset the world then it crashes at 6:32AM. Something is firing that takes it down. Possibly the carpool or could be one of my inactives attempting to give birth if such is causing crashing.

[PrinJess]

I can't even get past 3:55 AM before the game crashes. Awesomemod is the only mod installed, its version is March 2nd, and my game is on 1.50. Pretty much the same kind of problem that Chain Reaction is having. :/

Thank Goodness for that info. I didn't want to install the new 1.50 patch yet, but my AM just expired on me so I had to get another one. The beta link was a game saver for me. Yay!

[Quijotesca]

My game locks up and crashes when I try to load it with AM. Sometimes, it works for a few seconds, but my Sims have no wants and I can't get to the Sim panels.  I'm an idiot who has University installed already.

My latest test run gave me a FLAGRANT SYSTEM ERROR so I screencapped it.

There's the trouble dumbass. AM is not ready for University yet. Gawd, some critical thinking skills would not go amiss.

[Quijotesca]

Sweet! I finally got insulted! But it was after I insulted myself, so it feels kind of hollow.

I posted because my errors didn't seem that different from some of the other ones being reported.

[ShortyBoo]

I have University Life installed and was able to play for several hours with AM and I had no crashes or any other issues. So AwesomeMod does seem to work fine with UL installed.

[wizard_merlin]

I have also been playing successfully with UL installed and the current AM without any issues, other than what seem to be stupid EAxis game behaviour.

[siriusthinking]

Yep, I've been playing with AM since UL came out too, no issues.  Well, actually my university world has no books anywhere (library, bookcases, bookstore, comic book store) but I'm too lazy to try playing without AM to test it.

[Death-Jester]

For those who are playing without issues: Are you using the AM config file too?
I ask because I tried to play with AM installed and my Sims couldn't leave work (one was at work the other was playing a concert). I removed AM and the AM config file, and it seemed to work fine. I sent one Sim off to Uni to check it out, and when he returned I saved and tried AM again, without issue, but I haven't tried the config file yet.

[siriusthinking]

For those who are playing without issues: Are you using the AM config file too?

Yes.

[PrinJess]

The game freezes and then crashes a sim day later for me. Either it's the patch fucking up or AM.

[PA]

I tested it with University as well, but found that Awesome story progression pushed University world students into regular careers they shouldn't have and also caused some to quit their Uni careers.  The students with non-university world jobs then failed to perform those jobs.  I have had one Awesome error picked up by Error Trap regarding university rabbitholes (I'll post it later if needed).  So no, it isn't working without issue for the new expansion, as would be expected if it has not actually been updated for UL.

[ShortyBoo]

I play with Story Progression turned off, so I guess that explains why I wasn't seeing any issues.

I haven't paid much attention, but I think I'm experiencing that, too. I'll have to watch the "Inform on Story Action" notifications a bit closer to verify.

Parties are broken. When a Sim gets invited and accepts, I still get notifications about when it starts, but there's no indicator on the map, and if I send her to the location, there's no party. Then, later on, I get a notification that she missed the party. I'm betting this all has to do with the new, improved smartphone somehow conflicting with AM.

I'm also unable to "Propose Going Steady," at least in University town, but this might be due to the "Commitment Issues" trait or the fact that my Sim has several boyfriends already, as opposed to AM.

I tested the game with no mods. Some parties (kegger, bonfire) need confirmation via text message, the party scenario only starts *after* receiving the text. The notification telling you missed it comes from a phone call, as usual.

I got a weird error, though. With AM installed my sim was hanging out at the sorority after a kegger party, near the garage door. The party already ended, so I didn't get kicked out of the lot, but when the game deleted the keg by the pool I got a flagrant system error.

TS2 aging isn't working.

[Selene_Ravenwind]

Might be a bit late to the party here but I had a sim about to graduate from university and this popped up twice. http://oi50.tinypic.com/33louqg.jpg
When the sim graduated and the "going home" screen loaded, it took me back to the university map without my sim instead of going to my sim's home world.
Will the disabled story progression fix this or is this a different problem?


Update: I updated my awesomemod and reloaded my save from before the error message and did not have the issue this time.

Actually, I think that the only thing missing is the map indicator. My sim had a party thrown in fraternity he lived in, so he basically had to attend. It fulfilled his wish to attend a party and I later got the "thanks for coming to my party" notification. I'm pretty sure there were some more people than just residents, though even if there weren't any it wouldn't say much, as NPC parties are kind of lame anyway and host is frequently the only sim present. It's been like that since Late Night, at least for me.
