Title: Minor annoyance, Redux Post by: lvrogue13 on March 30, 2008, 05:11:19 pm Sorry, Redux just means that I typed this all out and my modem went wiggy so it didn't post! So, gotta do it again :(
This isn't a huge issue. It has to do with the create a sim area. I tend to use custom created sims that I d/l. I'd rather build up the homes, etc. Anyway, when I go to the custom sims area, the little thumbnail photos don't match up with what they actually are. Example: Say I have a BATMAN sim. When I go to the custom sims area, I don't see a thumbnail of BATMAN, but instead see a photo of the SUPERMAN sims I installed and then deleted a month ago. Or the thumbnail might even show a female sim that's been deleted even longer. If I have 10 custom sims, maybe one of the thumbnails matches up to what it actually is. I hope this makes sense to someone. Like I said, its minor and doesn't effect my gameplay, but if its a simple fix I'd love to take care of it. As always, thanks in advance for any help and/or words of wisdom! Title: Minor annoyance, Redux Post by: pandasan on March 31, 2008, 11:57:13 am I have the same exact problem. When I click on the miss-matched thumbnail it will show the correct sim, but I'm not sure what is causing it. This problem only occurs for me in game (in bodyshop, my saved sims display proper thumbnails). I recently deleted all of my thumbnails attempting to fix a different issue, so I have yet to check if they re-generated properly - but it might be something worth trying!
Title: Minor annoyance, Redux Post by: lvrogue13 on March 31, 2008, 04:22:32 pm Thanks for the suggestion. To be honest, I'm not sure how to go about deleting the thumbnails. I'll fiddle with it though.
Thanks again! Sorry, just realized what you meant. Hello McFly! Title: Minor annoyance, Redux Post by: pandasan on April 01, 2008, 09:23:14 am Sorry I was unclear! You can delete the thumbnail files in this location
My Documents\Ea Games\The Sims 2\Thumbnails The game will re-generate them. I do this every once in a while when I replace defaults or custom CAS face templates so they will show up like they should in game or in bodyshop. |
