The INSIMenator
BeosBoxBoy:
A word of caution here. There are STRONG changes to the data in the character files so using InSIMenator with Free Time is definitely contraindicated (means "don't use it") - there are many parts of the save data that SimPE simply cannot read at this time, and since SimPE can't read it, it's hardly likely that making blind changes to the save data with InSIMenator is a healthy thing to do to your game.
Many of the function in InSIMenator will work fine, but the ones that don't will do so rather spectacularly. Interests - for instance - now seem to have a numerical check of some sort that limits the maximum, so you can no longer Max All interests, so when InSIM might force these scorse to 10 for all, it may crash the game or render the lot or sim unusable.
The area of the Sim save data dealing with skill badges may or may not contain the data for hobby interests, so tinkering with business skills may also damage a Sim.
And with all of the new aspects of Aspirations... well I just wouldn't do it.
Tenshii~Akari is wise to say "wait it out" - listen to her!
Ali:
the insimenator does NOT work, not perfectly anyway, so it would be best if you didn't go around all the forums saying that it does
if you MUST have it in your game use the OBJ version - the SIM and DEST version fubarr the bug hunting and bird watching and with all versions the reproductive adjustor is quirky and there's a problem with adding and subtracing vacation days
they're the only problems that I've found right now, but there are others working on testing what's broken too so I'll echo what Beos said, use it with caution
vanessa:
Hi Aliwag,I'm sorry I hurt your feelings,I have the sim edition and no SimPE and it works for me.
I guess I'm lucky.
I don't want people to crash theyr game,that's not my intention,I just wanted to share a positive thing.
PegasusDiana:
The only thing is you could be corrupting your game files/code that's needed to run the game Vanessa in the long run. We have no idea how long it takes for those files to become totally corrupt. So while it seems to be working fine now, in three months from now you might end up with an unrecoverable game crash and by telling other's it's working fine, you also might be inadvertently causing others to have the same problems. That was my rant on the other thread I deleted. It's one thing if we want to take chances in our own games, which even I am guilty of. I think we all are to some extent. But, it's another when we mess up other's games two or three months down the road, when we're not really sure how it's affecting the game code/files. I think that's all Aliwag is saying.
Oh and PS Tinkering is like learning. Sims pratice/learn from things they play with.
gaylesman:
Ok I still have insimenator on my system... i only use the object edition... so i should pull it off?
btw..i never edited interests using insimenator...I always used merola's multi painting...it seems to work fine..do i have to pull that off as well?
