Hello people.
Today I tried to install Dexter The Bear and Chaos mod Painting because I wanted to get started with my story. But it won't work!
I won't say that I'm a computer wiz, but anyway, I tried to install a framework. I installed it in the Sims 3 folder, WA, HEL, and Ambitions, but when i started the game it seemed that the Chaos mod only partially worked. There was no "sim" animation!
And the sim wouldn't look where I told it to! Dexter only worked sometimes, but if you chose something to kill the Sim it just froze the spot. Now it doesn't work at all!.
Is there someone out there who might help me?

1. I like your avatar ;D
2. I've never used the Dexter The Bear so I'm not help for you there. I would suspect patches and lack of updates would effect that.
3. I have no expansion packs. [looking around] So I'm not sure where you would put everything...
4. I do have the Chaos mod Painting...As I understand it, it is not updated for Ambitions yet. That may conflict with somethings I would think.
5. Do you any core mods or other scripting mods that may conflict with some actions of the bear and painting mods?

Why didn't I think of that? Well, I don't think Dexter has been updated for Ambitions, so lets hope thats why it won't work ^^

I would check the comments of those threads. Last I looked in the Chaos painting thread, a lot of people were saying it wasn't working for them. I haven't tested mine yet.
And I have Dexter, but I've actually never used him, so I'm no help.

Hi! I had trouble setting up cc too, when they patched for Ambitions. One thing I noticed is that you are putting everything in all the separate EP folders, which is the old way. Now everything is supposed to go in place in your Documents folder. These instructions helped me get the one mod I used working: www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Setup_and_FilesIt would be good to make sure that your mods are Ambitions-compatible too. I hope that helps!

I don't think its you. I've been messing around with this today trying to get it to work, and it's a no go. I just downloaded a vanishing mod that makes some items invisible, and that doesn't work either, but I know it should.
I even tried installing the Monkey Bars and had that install the frame work. When that didn't work, I even installed the mods package into the my documents> mods > packages folder. STILL didn't work.
And inbetween all of this I've been deleting the cache files. So I guess it's just not wanting to work. It's a little frustrating. :/ (Okay, maybe more than a little.)
Edit: I'm an idiot. Though the Chaos painting still isn't working for me, so it seems like it just needs an update. I can have my sims look at things though. Just the painting itself has no options when I click on it.
The vanishing objects, I just need to clone and make some new objects and do some editing so they'll take advantage of the script. It's taken all day for me to figure that out. *head smack*
