Title: Sims don't do anything
Post by: summer_wine on September 21, 2007, 07:21:02 pm
I just noticed this recently but my sims don't do anything unless i command them to. freewill is on.

this is really strange because they don't even do the idle anims that they used to even when when freewill was turned off.

has this happened to anyone else? i haven't downloaded new hacks, btw. thanks

It's possible you have downloaded something which is causing a jump bug in your game. Switch on "boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true", and an error message should pop up (be warned, you're probably going to get stacks of them if you have got a jump bug!). As you get the error messages, documents will appear in the Logs folder which the game will generate (EAGames/The Sims 2/Logs, under My Documents). You can determine what is causing the jump bugs by reading the reports, so you can remove the culprit file. Meshes have been known to cause jump bugs as well.

That's all I can suggest, as I've had the same problem myself, and it ultimately turned out a bed mesh I had downloaded was causing the jump bugs in my game rather than a hack.

That or you have a mod which is not compatible with the bv ep.  Many needs update.

Babies aren't compatible.  :D

Actually I've noticed I'll have sims standing around more when there are infants and toddlers in the house than not.  Even if someone else is doing something with the little ones, teens and older must get the thought "I can't do anything with that kid right now, but as soon as that other sim stops I'll own that kid."  And this is without anything in the action queue, kinda like there's an unseen queue that's blocking anything else from happening.
