Current Problems in Late Night...

[celebkiriedhel]

I'm getting Routing failures to a lot of the buildings. Logged an error message with EA. But will head over to MTS and MATY to see if anyone's got it/fixed it.

For people with Sims3 stories - I wouldn't swap over just yet. There's going to have to be quite bit of re-work on the mods, sliders, and other things before it's properly playable.

For November, I'm probably going to uninstall it, so that I can get going on my own story.

Thanks for the heads up. That stinks!

After a new EP comes out, I usually wait at least two weeks or so for issues to be ironed out before I decide to take the plunge. The sliders is one thing that has me nervous.

[celebkiriedhel]

The muscle definition slider is very cool - I'll stick up pictures about that in a little while.

But yeah - I'm in love with the sliders I currently have - so I'm not going to start my hood in Late Night until it's done.

I've had answer to the Bridgeport problem at N99 - it's the lots that are corrupt.

The fix for it, is to delete the lot and replace it. I've started to do this, but found that not all the lots are in the community lot bin.

So I'm going to start again.

How many patches do you think we're going to get this time? Oh goodness...I don't have any EPs, but I've been through all of the patches. [shaking head] It's just terrible.

I think I'm going to wait to install it as well since others are having problems. I"m glad I read this thread before installing it. Thanks, Kiri!

What did you do Illandrya? I'm currently thinking about uninstalling Late Night, so I can use my sliders and non-default skins.

[celebkiriedhel]

Half your mods? I'm still trying to track down all the Late Night Mods.

It sounds like I can't go back then. I did a clean install as well. I always do a clean install for each expansion pack. Still playing vanilla in Late Night, with just default replacements, and camera mod in.

Oh cool - I've updated the Hacks - I'm going hunting for hack updates tonight

I want to eventually add all the hacks I use (and ones that you guys use) and have a status/url for them.

I keep getting random crashes. Anyone else have that problem?

[rad]

Not generally, but the game froze when I was trying to save OP tonight. To be fair, that's a huge save file anyway, including data from several adventures, and adding all the LN buildings to their Sunset Valley probably hasn't helped matters. The Dayes are in Bridgeport and have played them for hours at a time with no issues.

No crashes, just game stuttering and freezing. It plays for about thirty seconds, and then it freezes for thirty seconds. The freeze is even worse when testingcheatsenabled is on: five seconds of playing, and 15 seconds of freezing. It took two hours, a cheat, and eventually resetSim to try and age up a teen.

In Ophelia's house, her butterflies and goldfish are invisible, but for game purposes they still exist (they show the little preview picture when you hover over them, you can still view and feed them, etc.).

If Sims are chatting, it only shows a picture in the chat bubble for a split second before it disappears, leaving an empty chat bubble.

Things that used to give off little animations when activated no longer do: the stereo, cell phones ringing, sprinklers, and odor clouds on spoiled food and potties and such.

Those are some of the things I noticed while playing my WYD challenge...I haven't updated the game to the most recent patch (the second one released recently to patch up some of the LN issues), but I might give it a try soon because some of these things are really bothering me. I'm really worried about what it will do to my wonderful invisible furniture, though.

[raquelaroden]

Illandrya: Oh...I do indeed have a no mosaic mod...I'll see if I can find an update.

I am very, very happy to report that my beloved non-default hairy body skin has been updated so that it works with the sliders! It's beautiful.

Well, I might just take the plunge and let it update then....there's almost always a fix, I just keep telling myself that.

[raquelaroden]

Illandrya, you're a genius. That's exactly what it was. Ophelia's fish and butterflies are back!



You've saved me from having to fabricate some failed experiment that turned all of Ophelia's fish and butterflies invisible!!

Yay! Mendel lives!
