Try not using the thinking cap so much? Title: Resolved: sims emiting smoke and electricity Post by: DOEreoh on February 07, 2007, 08:48:18 pm i havent been using it for a while now and still no change! :(
Title: Resolved: sims emiting smoke and electricity Post by: BeosBoxBoy on February 07, 2007, 09:28:32 pm ok try one of these and see if it corrects the problem:
try changing the sim's appearance with a mirror, save and exit the lot try moving the family out and back into a different lot try using the boolprop testingcheatsenabled true cheat and then shift-click the sim and force an error, you will want to turn the cheat off after trying this so type boolprop testingcheatsenabled false in the cheat console Title: Resolved: sims emiting smoke and electricity Post by: DOEreoh on February 08, 2007, 03:42:39 pm thanks for the info i will try and get back to you @ a later time to see if it worked!!!
i just thought of something though!!! i saw a post (i dont remember where) but the users sim had water ripples stuck near them...similar problem that my sim has!!! i then noticed that the smoke and electricity are the same that a sim emites after using one of the aspiration rewards that boosts up all your motives! sorry dont remember the name!!! its almost like the animation that happens after using the machine stayed stuck on the sim!!! however i did not pull her out of the machine using moveobjects on.....so i duno! but im no pro tho... anyways thanks Title: Resolved: sims emiting smoke and electricity Post by: caffeinated.joy on February 08, 2007, 04:25:40 pm You could trying opening the cheat box and typing moveobjects on. Then, go into buy mode, delete the sim, save and exit the lot and re-enter. The game will reset the sim and you'll find her by the mailbox, hopefully glitch free.
Title: Resolved: sims emiting smoke and electricity Post by: BeosBoxBoy on February 08, 2007, 04:58:21 pm I hesitated to suggest that - I have had sims disappear forever before one of the patches.

anyways thanks dudes!!! i dont know exactly how but it stoped!!! i didnt even have a chance to try the 3 suggestions and then i noticed there was no more smoke n $4!+! i think it might have been by playing with some cheats...but i didnt use testingcheatsenable! the funny thing is that it had been doing this for almost 2 week! and then a day or 2 after posting it just stops! thanks again |
