Title: What am I doing wrong ?
Post by: xx.Abi.xx on September 19, 2008, 01:40:07 pm
I built an apartment lot, (well, a normal lot, then changed it to an apartment lot) and I used the proper doors to rent the rooms but when I moved my sim in, before she even had the chance to rent the room, half the stuff I put in the rooms were gone, like the rooms were rented themselves ....


Do you have to use specific doors to rooms inside the apartment ??

Im so confused :(


ALSO I keep getting a pop-up, about every half-an-hour Sim time, saying there was an error with the Age Controller but I have searched my downloads and I have no such thing installed, but I have recently installed the Apartment Life Insim and I had no problem before :S

Any ideas about this too ?

I recommend hitting the delete button on such an error. I have seen them before, and in other EPs prior to this one.

Usually it would show for me when loading the lot though, after an EP installation.

Thanks for the advice, but I tried this earlier and it's still coming up :( It's very annoying as I play my game on the medium speed :)

If you can find and post the error log that the pop-up mentions, someone might be able to check through that and offer you a possibility of what hack/object could be causing it.  ;)

Do you have another one that's a little more recent?  You can get to it by organizing your Logs folder by Date Modified.  The one you have attached at the moment says July 26th of this year.  :angel:

Odd. :shock:  Wonder why it says that in the file, then... usually the file itself has the same date as the date modified. :scratch:  Might have to add in the detail "Date Created" just in case.  (You can go in and add that arranging feature by using the "Choose Details" option under "View" in Windows Explorer.)  

Eh, anyways, if you have any sort of hack in your game, try moving them out of your Downloads folder and see what happens.  Most likely it's a hack that deals with aging.  ;)

If the error still persists, I'd suggest making a test neighborhood and lot,  moving your downloaded custom content to a safe folder outside of your Sims 2 folders, and try the game without content to see if the error goes away.  If it does, you can gradually test small groups of content by playing the game each time you add them back to your Downloads folder, until you run across the error again... then narrow down the culprit group to single files until you find the particular one(s) causing the Age Controller error in your game.  It's a long, drawn-out process, especially if you have thousands of files in your folder... but it's the best way to know for sure which item causes something like this to happen.  :angel:
