Type "Shift+Control +c" , then type in the cheat box "setHour 22 " or choose whichever hours between 1-22 and see if that works.

I'd check to see if Sims 2 Update Speed and TS2 Speed Manager are updated for your latest EP.  If you have the right versions, then check the settings on those.

I'm not really familiar with either of those mods, so this is just a shot in the dark.

Does it cause by some hacked package that ive installed in it ? Cause, sims detect some of my package can make the game goes wrong.
And also, ive made the default speed for both sims 2 and pets, but it does nothing.
Also, ive made max out everything with TS2 Enhancher, so my sims have white aspiration. Is it correct or not ?
Last, whenever i want to enter an empty lot or an empty house the loading progress takes long, even an hour but still progressing.

Your lot is locked up. When you are in the main neighborhood view, open the cheat console (Ctrl+Shift+C) and type in "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" without the quotes and then enter your lot. As the errors come up, keep clicking delete until there are no more problems.

Logs are in My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/Logs. It should have said in the error message what caused the error.

There was probably something corrupted, could have been an object you placed, could have been the way it was placed.

You should only use the cheat if you are having problems with a lot or are looking to diagnose a problem with the game. Otherwise you will get errors quite frequently as the game is self-bugging.

I play with the testing cheats enabled constantly.  The only time I've gotten the errors was from mods.  Never has the game created a new bug on it's own.  I guess in that respect, we can thank EA.  lol

Once you learn how to read the error files, you can usually narrow down the problem through examining it, running Paladin's HCDU, and Clean Installer.  Then just find the updated mod if one's available or decided what I really want in my game.

Im a stranger in TS2 Neighbourhood, :lol:  i lived in the D&D-hood for ages ... so, its simply new to me and i guess this board is the right map to me :p
Btw, do you know why the loading progress take a long time when i enter my sim house rather than if i delete all the download content ? (sometimes i have to kill TS2 when its still loading)
Thanks guys :salute:

If you are having extremely long load times on lots, chances are you've got a bad mod on the lot.  Check to make sure your mods/hacks are up to date, and if one you had isn't compatible with the latest EP you have, you should get rid of it.

What about the objects ? will it be bad too ?

If you have objects with new meshes, i.e., furniture, it's possible.
