memories/can't get rid of fears

HobbesED:
If you've applied the corresponding Maxis patch following your latest EP install, then you shouldn't need to do any further patching. It isn't like there have been any new patches for Sims2 in the last several years.

broomhilda:
cool thanks HobbesED for your help...

QUESTION: Can I ask a favor from anyone please....Can someone when you have time check your Bluewater Village and see what is in Denise Jacquet's  memories and family tree....and also what her fears are...am curious to see what everyone else has... thanks

There's two parts to relationships.  There's the neighborhood relationship table and then the relationship flags and values that are part of the Sim.  Since the premade Sims were at least partially hand built, the two parts may not be perfectly in sync.  Just another stupid but true Maxis thing.  If you played the game at all, even just opening and closing, between installing OFB and applying the patch, it's quite likely that the data files for the Sims did not get updated.  Anyhow, this explains why you're seeing Denise and her dead husband as both married and unmarried.  You need to track down both parts of the relationship with SimPE and "unmarry" them. 

BTW, you can rename your My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2 folder to something else, like The Sims 2 good, let the game regenerate the folder and look at Denise's original data.  When you're finished, delete the new folder and change the name of the original folder back.

marka said something about patching...the last time I downloaded the games they all said the game was updated so does that mean the patching is updated as well...should I do the patching again...although I am afraid of downloading anything...I should just except some glitches....

It's worth noting when the game says it's updated it doesn't mean it's patched, or it has automatically applied the patch. You still need to apply them to your game and each EP. You can find the patches here.

thanks miros1 for the info...am afraid to do anything to the game....have done sooooo many factory restores on here and have started over sooooo many times that I am afraid to do anything....worked to hard this time around to get where I am at....I know the folder thing is easy and your instructions are simple but for me it is like doing a search or a download have no idea how to do either right sucks being old and computer stupid at the same time lol....I know I will mess it up...Christian and Denise have been together for a while now and as soon as I send the kids off to college play the boy and move him back in have kids and when those kids are school age I usually let the grandparents die of old age....I know from now on I will have to look into the family tree and memories before I play another sim that is for sure only have very few sims/families that I haven't played yet in both Riverblossom and Bluewater Village this is the furthest I have ever gotten....have 36 couples in college and have several ready to go to college as soon as I get a few houses in the college ready to graduate I move sims into a house before I take the graduated ones out so the next ones don't have to pay that high price...average for a house is $15-16,000 to move in...

thanks miros1 for your help


caffeinated.joy I have tried doing the patches in the past but got confused because some of them look like the same thing so wasn't sure which ones to download....now I have most of the disks but have several that are just downloads when I talked to Origin they didn't have the disks anymore so had to get just the downloads...does that make a difference will go in and look at that link and see and if I have questions will come back and ask...sorry I am being a pain and I know a lot of the instructions are simple but for me...I don't know...I have only been using a computer since 2004 got my first cell phone about that time to don't even know how to use most of what is on there...

thanks caffeinated.joy for your help
