I've downloaded the patch too and STILL have a problem with the "levitating" toddlers. They just float if they don't have a task. What can I do about it??
You haven't really installed the patch. You just re-installed the old one. Maxis pulled the the second patch and just pointed the link to the old one. So while you THINK you're downloading Patch #2, you're only getting Patch #1. You'll have to wait until Maxis re-releases Patch #2 to fix your floating toddlers.
It actually pisses me off that they did this. Instead of EA openly admitting the mistake (except in their bulletin board) and pulling the patch altogether, they instead left the site page for Patch #2 up with its complete description of fixes, and then pointed the link to the old patch. So now everyone who goes to download it thinks they're getting this huge list of fixes, when in reality they're getting a fix for 3 old bugs that don't matter squat to anyone.

I have a different problem with the cook. I bought a restaurant community lot to run as my own and the cook keeps appearing when I want to assign my own sim to it!! Any thoughts?

UPDATE: 07-12-07
After a suggestion from Beosboxboy in a different (but similar thread), I tried something entirely new for my flashing accessories. Hopefully, I'm not getting too excited, but so far, it's working just fine. :D
He suggested that you can export whatever accessory is flashing blue with Body Shop, then import it back in with a different name. I've tried this with a few necklaces and earrings and it's done just fine; no more flashing blue things!
Here's the thread where he mentions this "fix": http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=49762
However, I'm still digging through my hacks and other things to see if I can resolve the NPC cook issue... I'll keep you all updated. :)
MissDoh:
Dunner it is not caused by a hack. I had that cook problem happing in my game sometimes since Nightlife with or without mods in.
I do not quite know why it happens but I know by deleting the stove and or podium it fixes the problem.
Dunner:
Hmm, I've still been considering that too... I had never had it occur until I got Seasons and didn't have a chance to install any updated hacks; that's pretty much why I thought it could be a (conflicting) hack.
However, since I recently completely uninstalled/reinstalled everything from scratch (all EPs and Stuff packs), that it kind of fixed it? I've noticed that (so far) my cooks have been generating fine, and I don't have any hacks at all in the game at the moment since I'm still placing stuff back into my Downloads folder.
EDIT: Ok, well, I checked the game with all of my hacks; this time, it's fine... The cooks are generating properly again. That's a really weird glitch, but I'm glad it's fixed. :)
So, both of my problems are completely resolved now... This thread can be locked/deleted or whatever. lol
