Hey Smiley
I've got a really annoying problem with Bon Voyage content - I have no idea why it isolates Bon Voyage stuff, but for some reason BV objects cause the jump bug, e.g. massage tables cannot be used - the interaction jumps as and towelled sims walk towards table, then change back to normal clothes, and tents are usable but the animations don't show.

Another thing is that the clothes from Bon Voyage have started doing that thing where the mesh is there, but the textures seem to be missing, and instead of the regular textures you see a white texture with black and blue file names covering the mesh.
Here's a pic so you can see what I mean:

[Sorry the image is too big to post directly here]

The strange thing is, both times this has happened it seemed to be the result of my sims going on holiday. Once one family has gone on holiday, something seems to mess up, and all the interactions 'die'. For Best Bride my sims went to a beach lot, everything worked for about 5-10 minutes, then they couldn't swim in the sea, or use the campfire or anything like that.

I've tried removing all Downloads and SavedSims, and updating graphics card drivers, and deleting files that may have become corrupted, but that's about the limit of my fixing knowledge.

I really don't want to have to reinstall everything again - since last time I had the problem it didn't fix it. Unfortunately I can't remember what did fix it, I thought it was updating graphics card drivers but that hasn't worked this time.

If you need any other information just ask! I'm sure I've probably missed a load of necessary details out, I'm really sorry about that.

Any help appreciated! Smiley

Bumping. Sorry! Smiley

Forgot to say - I have all EPs but not all SPs, in case that helps, but I don't think it does.

Apologies for bumping, again.

Anyone got any ideas? Smiley

hmmm, just BV stuff. you have patched your game right, specifically BV?  and have taken out all of your hacks and it still happens? Your Bon Voyage is on disk or is it a download from the site? I would think it is a corrupted BV game file. You say you have had it happen before. When that happened before, you had then the same ep/sp that you have now?

amc462000 when it happened before I didn't have Apartment Life but the rest was the same. Smiley

I did patch BV, yes, and the game is on disk, not downloaded.

I've tried removing all Downloads and hacks and it does indeed still happen.

I'm completely stumped as to why it's happening, it doesn't happen as soon as I've installed it. All the objects work until a family goes on holiday, then *poof* they all stop functioning. It's very weird. :lol:
