The surf it works, but I didn't see any shark, in my game is a seal or sea lion....

It is supposed to be a sea lion. The object doesn't have a shark.

A sea lion attack? I must play more to see that.

From what I understand your Sim will only get a damaged board to display if you have them buy a custom board from buy mode to use INSTEAD of the default plain wooden one. That board can then be displayed and will show three large bite shaped chunks missing. There are pictures and info over at SimsVIP.

What default one?  If I don't buy the Sim a surfboard from the buy mode they can't use the machine.  The Sim gets reset either by NAARS or the game with an error report.

The surf station works fine, but I can't see all the clothes that came in set, for example, the new swimming costume for males.

[Andistyr]

I noticed the male swimming trunks were in outfits instead of bottoms.  At first I thought possibly they didn't put it for young adults, but, then when I went to the outfits to see if the male wetsuit was there, I saw the male swimming trunks.

Good evening to all.
Sorry for a question, if it's inadequate, but I really don't know, what to do. Also, if this is an inappropriate topic, please, don't be angry and point me to the necessary one )
I've been using these fixes for a long time - and never had any problems with my Store, but now I've downloaded "Business As Usual Bistro", downloaded temporary fix from this topic - and it came with a problem. The stove presents, no white cubes - but if the guest orders some food, a cook can either change clothes to normal and go home (then returns), or do some other animation (for example, lady-cook began to give birth). In some situations a cook comes to the guest, writes an order - and then also changes clothes and leaves until the order isn't cancelled, then changes clothes again and returns to the stove. This happens not with all the food, but with some of it, every time different.
I download Store from the torrent site, now it is in packages (only worlds are in DCCache). My patch version is 1.55, so I have KT_StoreFix_DecrapFixes, KT_StoreFix_Fixes_All, KT_XMLs, CCMerged, IndustrialKitchenFixes and mods from Optional_Stuff in Overrides package and CCMerged dublicated in DCBackup. All other Store objects work fine. Could you please suggest, what it could may be and how to solve this?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my English, if something is wrong

A have the same situation and I'm not the only one, but I don't mind. One comes, one goes...

If you're so desperate go and make it yourself.

Don't touch it or notouching.

Seriously, go give your toaster a bath.

[kissing_toast]

Phew! Finally got around to updating. Big thank you to notouching for helping; I basically just merged his fixes with mine. I haven't had much time lately for anything because I just moved in with the BF, so things are still a bit disorganized over here. Hopefully soon I'll get a chance to look the new items over in game.

[notouching]

Thanks for the update, KT. I went back and removed the links for the temp fixes because they are no longer necessary.

About the Surf board, it does work fine, with the exception of the damaged board when the sim gets attacked by a seal (I did buy a custom board and not the default one). I haven't had the time to do a thorough investigation of what causes the issue. The damaged boards appear for people with legit copies, so there is something about decrapping that causes the problem. Is there anyone who installed this set as non-decrapped packages? If so, do you get a damaged board when a seal attacks?

Personally, I'm not overly fussed about the damaged board. The sim can surf and gain skill etc. just fine and the damaged board just takes up space. It does sort of bother me that I couldn't figure it out, though.

I'll take a look when I can, been in the mood for Simming lately.

I don't think there is a problem. I believe the reason you don't get back a broken board when you just use the station out right is because you don't have a board to get back. But when you have a board and you get attacked you get it back because it's yours. Where did you hear that non arr'd versions act differently? The BBC? Can anyone here confirm or deny that?

[notouching]

I bought a custom board from the buy catalog and then used the surfing station. Then my sim got attacked but the board didn't change. This happened several times. Is there something I'm missing?

[phoenixc]

If you don't chose the buyed board, you can't see the damage... If you clik on the board from inventory, and the attack is happens, you can't use again that board. I f you don't chose the board from inventory (buyed board) sims use the default board and the damage can't be seen.

[kissing_toast]

Are you dragging the board to your sim's inventory? If you do that then the board changes.

[notouching]

Ok, wow. I got it. Thanks for the help. I didn't realize the board needed to be in the sim's inventory when you use the surfing area for it to get damaged. I'm just going to chalk that up to being really sick when this thing got released.

So that's good, everything works fine.

Hey, KT, just a heads up, Microsoft Smart Save Filter, on IE is blocking your stuff. It has identified all of your stuff except the store patch as malware. I was able to download with firefox no problem, but I just thought I'd let you know.

It isn't KT's stuff that is sending the alert. KT uploads to MediaFire and there are ads. It is the ads that are causing that malware alert. It happens to me all the time.

[michelou]

Well, it only came up as blocked once I hit the download (actually, it only comes up once I hit save in the bottom download bar) and I download stuff from Mediafire all the time with no problems, had in fact just downloaded something (CC clothing, to be precise) just before trying to download KT's stuff. I was also able to download a CC house from Mediafire after the alerts from KT's stuff, using IE.

Which is why I was thinking that it's KT's stuff that's specifically flagged.

I have identified your problem.

[phoenixc]

I saw that there appeared a new patch and a new premium content. As EA says the new premium content does not work without the new patch.

It would be the penultimate effort. seeing that the Sims3 in the future will be the last sims3 EP Series of sims3.

Thanks in advance to KT and everyone else who has helped simple players like me .
