Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: film1962 on September 14, 2007, 10:35:59 pm Hey there, My Sims cannot get a job. everytime I tell them to look in the paper, I get there are no more jobs in the paper today.. but no jobs are given to me. This also happens on the computer. Can anyone help me?
Also I cannot get my sim to take a picture nor can they get someone else to take a picture and I have used the way it says in the booklet and on the screen. Thank you in advance:rabbit: Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: MissDoh on September 15, 2007, 12:22:33 am It could be a mod conflict, did you try to move your downloads folder to see if it works without it?
Another possibility is a sim that graduated from Uni is living on that lot and that day the only job showing up both in the paper and computer are jobs that needs the sim to be graduated. Did you try another lot to see if other sims can get a job? Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: film1962 on September 15, 2007, 08:08:51 pm Thanks for answering my problem so quickly. I tried that moving the downloads folder- still nothing, no jobs. I tried reinstalling the games and still same problem. Very Perplexing.
Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: MissDoh on September 16, 2007, 01:27:51 am So it is happening on all your lots or just one in particular?
Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: jinyc on September 16, 2007, 01:32:03 pm You should run a hack utility. If you have ever downloaded an S2Pack file it may have contianed a hidden hack that is now probably incompatible with your game. If this is the case, run Clean Installer. It will isolate all hacks in your game. If you have a "hidden" hack with a long alpha numeric file name it will show and could be the culprit.

Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: ancienthighway on September 17, 2007, 01:16:36 am In saying you moved your downloads folder earlier, did you move everything or just the mods? And did you move it completely out of the game's folders, like to your desktop?
Just to be sure, you should not have a Downloads folder anywhere in My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2. Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: film1962 on September 18, 2007, 09:37:40 pm Yes, I moved all the downloads including the game mods to my second hard drive so it was completely removed. I know this sounds very weird. I am thinking if I completely unistall all games and reinstall- see if the jobs come back. Is this a good idea??
Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: MissDoh on September 19, 2007, 12:38:21 pm Since even without your download folder none of your sims can get job I think indeed it could be a good idea to reinstall but you could start by only uninstalling and reinstalling the BV ep.
Make sure to make a back-up before you do because it will delete the complete sims 2 folder when you uninstall bv. Title: Cannot Get a Job Post by: film1962 on September 22, 2007, 07:47:54 pm Thanks MissDoh for your help, it is very much appreciated. I will let you know what happens
