A little friendly warning for you all...
SimGirl20:
Hi Guys,
I just thought I would share my scare with you all today so please don't let this thread go un-noticed and please heed my warning when I tell you to STAY AWAY from this praticular lot over at TSR :eek:
I was looking for a sweet alien home for my alien/vampire hybrid Naria and I didn't see anything that really grabbed my attention at MTS2 so I thought I would give TSR a shot and I found and downloaded this lot..
http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/details/category/sims2-lots-residential-fantasy/title/The%20Centauri/id/723902/
I was at first thinking woah what a neat lot so I put it in my downloads and was pretty physced to furnish it for my sims but then I noticed the problem almost immediatley after putting that in, first my game took almost 15 minutes for the opening movie to come up and play and froze and skipped almost all the way through which I thought was weird but I didn't think anything about it, and THEN I went into the lot and prepared to furnish it I noticed straight away that some of the furnishing that I KNOW I had the EP for was blue so I was thinking okay maybe it was a bad recolor or something so I went to start putting stuff in and thats when it hit me..NONE of my objects had any recolor options!! :eek: not even objects associated with game EP's such as the barstools in BV to the Club Distress Sofas in the Base Game! I was shocked to find out that even after exiting the lot knowing then that the lot had some kind of really bad hack attached to it that Clean Installer DID NOT pick up :confused: I went to an empty lot which took another additional 20 minutes to open just a blank template and found that the problem presists so I knew it was more than likely that lot so I went out and deleted it from my folder and out of my recycle bin and went back in the game and everything seemed to be back to normal so what I am trying to say is PLEASE don't download that lot especially if your like me and download gobs and gobs of stuff at one time and copy and paste like 30 items into your downloads folder :p I think I just got lucky thinking it could be that lot because I downloaded a bunch of hacks and everything last night..
Naria:
Glad you seem to have gotten rid of the problem. Hope it stays that way. And thanks for the warning.

:confused: Did I get an alien/vampire named after me?
SimGirl20:
no problem, and apparently so I didn't intenionally name her after you par say but her name is indeed Naria.. Naria Klinoc ;D
Casual Dude:
This is the same website that was taking creators content or something too?
Sierra:
This could be just a weird coincidence but my game have been having random crashing and after I noticed that the creator who's house you donloaded is Laivine_erunyauve, it got me thinking. You see, I have the same creators "The Isla", "The Seabrook" and "Azura Beach Resort" in my game. I deleted them from the LotCatalog just a few minutes ago, just in case. Who knows, maybe they are causing that random crashing. :-\
