Third Seasons Patch is out....

[Zazazu]

Well, mine are still not changing out of coats correctly. During spring, I had all sims coming into the house and keeping their coats on. So, they still didn't fix that one. I'll have to get nounneededcoats.

[NixRMax]

Something else I've also noticed, a beard has been missing ever since I installed Seasons. It's the big scruffy 'hermit' beard. The mayor of my neighborhood is wearing the beard, so it still works, it's just missing from Change Appearance and C-A-S. Is that Maxis stupidity or just my game being stupid? I hate it when things go missing...

Edit: Only the Black hair hermit beard is missing. The Brown, Blond, and Red haired hermit beards are all there. Not sure about the Elder version, don't have any Elders in my neighborhood. Great, this is a conspiracy...

Me too. I think there might be one or 2 others missing too. The bald hair head with comb-over is also weird with strange patches on it. I was assuming that one of my downloaded hairs had messed these things up, but I never noticed the problems before installing Seasons. I've been planning to check a clean game, but haven't done it yet.

Levitating children refers to the graphics glitch where children would float above the floor during interactions with adults, rather than just looking up like they're supposed to.

[Zazazu]

Oh, not sure if this is the patch or Seasons, or something I never noticed before, but teen-on-child tag has some borkified animations. Jasmine (teen at the time) was playing with Ron Jr. (child at the time) and whenever he would tag her, she did this weird knee-bend thing, then popped back up. Didn't break the play cycle, but just...odd.

Honestly, I think I was better off pre-patch. I may just uninstall and reinstall Seasons yet again.

[Orikes]

I think that's actually been like that for a while, Zazazu. I remember seeing the weird knee-bend tag before Seasons. Maybe even before Pets.

I think that might be a downloaded hair causing problems...I just tested it on two adult male sims and had no weirdness issues.

mine are also still not changing out of their coats.  i thought at first it was the fact that i had an arch on an outside wall, which i changed into a regular door, but it seems the sims don't pay any attention to the outside doors at all except for not walking through the walls.  if that makes sense.



my toddlers were levitating while dancing in front of the stereo, but it's been a while since i've seen it happen.

[Tigerlilley]

Toddlers can dance in front of the stereo?

[Ambular]

Toddlers can dance in front of the stereo?

I had one dancing while someone played the electric guitar the other day...

[Tigerlilley]

Weird... i shall try this out when i get home..

[phyllis_p]

The toddlers don't stand up and dance.  They just kind of sit and bop.  It's really cute.

[Jelenedra]

I didn't know they could do that either until I came across a hack that made it menu pie selectable.

[Magicmoon]

I play with free will on. I was concerned when one active toddler did nothing except bop to the stereo her entire toddler-hood. When she was a teen she qualified for the dancing scholarship. This was back before we had skillinate>dancing and I was still unfamiliar with what scholarships were available.

So now I keep a stereo in the playroom. It keeps them awake so don't put it where they sleep. I even downloaded a stereo meshed to look like a baby mobile so it doesn't look out of place.

WTF? Someone just recommended an object made by feeessen?
I think I've stumbled into an alternate dimention... :\

[Sagana]

Why is it so much of feeessen's stuff is all spiky? I do have things she's made that are cute, and things other people have textured on her meshes that are, or are so unique it doesn't matter, but...

Anyways, I think the kid's stereo in the Far From Perfect recolor here:
http://www.all4sims.de/board/filebase.php?fileid=933&lim=0

is lots cuter and looks just fine in a playroom, even if it's not a mobile-type.

Hm, actually the stereo is in the original set as well as the recolor. The set is here:

Can be downloaded either place (or others) because the meshes are in with those recolors.

If you search among the rubble, she does have a few gems.

ETA: Thanks for the other mesh link. I missed that one. It is cute.

[J. M. Pescado]

It seems more plausible that the gems belong to those unfortunates who were crushed to death by the falling rubble.

[Gwill]

That thing was no gem.  It looked like something made of papermaché.

[KatEnigma]

Sometimes, it's a matter of video card. What doesn't look so bad to someone with video card A, looks like crap to someone who can see the object in minute detail on video card B. I had to delete some of my favorite clothes when I upgraded my video card.   

[Gwill]

Are you dissing my video card?  Huh?  HUH?

[syberspunk]

Are you dissing my video card?  Huh?  HUH?

No... silly fat Gwilly people.  I think she's saying the opposite... suggesting that perhaps your video card is so much better that you see crappy minute detail that someone with a shittier video card wouldn't be able to see, and therefore doesn't realize that the object looks like papermaché.

Silly bassackwards Gwilly people.

*scratches head* So, uh, is there actually anything that's fixed in p3 that isn't fixed with p1 + Awesomefixes that I should actually care about?

[KatEnigma]

Yes, people with good cards can see things like papier mache textures and meshes with uneven edges.  People with not-so-good cards think those same objects are OMG AWESOME!11!! 

[MutantBunny]

It's not all the card: my biggest improvement came with my new screen even tho I had two asus en7900gs's running in SLI. The game PLAYED much better with the SLi, new procesoor etc etc--but the LOOK was dramatically improved with a widescreen LCD.

I like fee Essens ideas, but the execution lacks a lot--probably because she's on a less than new PC and she simply doesn't know or can't help it.
