Title: Can't use telephone
Post by: mizmudgie on September 01, 2008, 09:59:24 pm
I have one house where the sims cannot use the telephone.  Other houses the phone works fine.  Any ideas?

With FT, I had a lot of problems with the phone unusable.  For some reason, the phone controller will become corrupted.  I've sold all the phones, to include cell phones, then bought them again.  The phone controller is destroyed where there's no phones on the lot, then is created again once a phone is placed.

Phone worked again.

I will give that a try, I have added new phones and tried them but not gotten rid of them all and started again.  Thanks much.

Well, that didn't work.  I wound up moving them into the bin destroying the house and rebuilding it.  It is fine now. Weird.

Before you do it, try removing all phones from the house, save and exit the game, go to the My Documents/EA/Sims2 folder and delete the cashe and accessory's files.  Then start the game and go back to that house and add the phones.  
If it doesn't work then put the stuff you bought for those sims into their rewards and move them to the bin and destroy the house and rebuild it or move them to another house.
I didn't try deleting the files from the Sims folder, I just removed the phones, exited and put the phones back...it didn't work.
