Ambitions: What's borked

[cwykes]

I guess it's not new, but I fell over another count resetting problem today - "cook 5 dishes perfectly"  The 3/5 at home became 0/5 in Egypt.  The fish count however was fine - my still has still caught 30/50 red herrings

I'm having a weird bug where I am unable to remove any accessories. For example, if I were to give a sim glasses, and later go to the dressor, there wouldn't be an option for not wearing glasses, only to change to other glasses.
Wow, that was barely coherent.

Have you tried clicking the equipped accessory to unequip it?

Borked or not, I don't know, but now that EA has remodeled the deed system, ownership of rabbit holes or venues will not be retained if you transfer your family into a new neighbourhood, even if it's the same but newer town. Neither will you get the money back during export. I couldn't test whether it is the same with vacation homes, because my old neighbourhood went kaputt before I had the chance to buy one, but at least now I know that you should sell everything before you move out unless you intend to play a credit crunch scenario.

The ownership system is horribly bugged, anyway: You can end up with two famblies owning the same lot, resulting in a logical inconsistency over who the owner is, a generally screwed-up thing. AwesomeMod fixes this part. For obvious reasons, trying to transfer ownership between neighborhood moves can't work, because you could import two famblies that both claim to "own" the lot.

Ever since the patch I've had sims walking on water instead of swimming and standing up in the tattooist's chair - basically the two things that so-called patch was supposed to fixed, but actually introduced into my game instead.

Today my sim got into a pool, then he walked over the water, and from above the water, he used his banshee banisher. He removed a spirit, an invisible one.

Is this free verse?

My Sims also seem to think that they are the Messiah, makes me tempted to call the "Rapture" at times. Never had this behavior before the patch, either. This seems to happen mostly when they are conversing with each other in the pool, much like the same bug from Sims2.

I haven't seen this posted yet so here I go:

The game isn't showing the correct number of cases solved for my Investigator Sim.  Just this morning, it showed 18/35 cases solved, which was correct at the time.  I fired up the game again this afternoon, this time choosing a completely different family to play for a while and give her a break.  When I switched back to the Investigator family, the number of cases solved was 0/35.  What has caused this?  Was it because I switched to another family and then back to the original one?  The game is showing the correct job level (10), but I haven't been able to figure out what the goddamn hell is going on.

FYI:  I have no mods whatsoever, or any custom content, including Store stuff so it's not a conflict.  Can this be fixed?

EDIT:  I just tried Google.  Absolutely nothing!

Whenever you switch active families, all the current wants and wishes and whatnot of the current family are reset.  The game tells you this when you go to change families, and asks you if this is okay.  You then have to click the "YA THIS IS OKAY I WANT YOU TO RESET EVERYTHING" button before it'll change active families.

Fuck!  I was hoping it was another EAsshole problem.  Oh well.  I just didn't want to have to start over after all that time I spent getting even that far.  Damn!

That's the one thing I really hate about TS3:  the way it penalizes you for trying to play more than one family.

I have a vague idea what may be causing this. It's related to the way TS3 stores wants, yes. I'm going to guess it DOESN'T happen if you switch back and forth while another want is locked.
