Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: Scruff on May 16, 2007, 12:30:04 am Every sim in my neighborhood- including neighborhoods I haven't played in months- were all "unknown." Their indivual images were all potato heads. I have no idea how this could have happened- no power failures or game crashes, nothing weird while saving or shutting down the game.
I tried uninstalling SimPE and redownloading it which did not help at all. Could it be a strange side effect of something I downloaded? Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: ancienthighway on May 16, 2007, 01:09:52 am The important question is whether the sims in game are showing the proper memories and friends. If they are all with Unknown, you probably have a bad 'hood.
Try going to a fresh 'hood also. Create new families and create some friendships. Then go into SimPE and look at that 'hood to see if you have the same problem. Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: Scruff on May 22, 2007, 11:36:57 am In game, everything looks normal- normal memories, nothing unusual. In SimPE, when I use the left side menu, click on sims, the names of every sim is "unknown". Under Neighborhood memories- there's nothing- completely blank. Under the pull down menu from the top under neighborhoods where it says Sim discription- blank, no sims listed. Under households- every sim in the household is "unknown". If I click on an unknown sim- they still have their skills, jobs, personality, aspirations- but they're potato heads with no friends or connections to any other sims. I haven't created a new neighborhood yet to test that, but thought I would clarify a bit on what I've found so far.
Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: miros1 on May 22, 2007, 06:36:36 pm Did you open the Neighborhood package or did you go through the Neighborhood Browser? I think I heard that happens if you just open the Neighborhood package.
Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: Scruff on May 22, 2007, 08:58:25 pm I had been trying opening from the neighborhood browser, but after reading the above, I tried opening the package and had the same result. I still haven't tried emptying the downloads folder.
Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: ancienthighway on May 22, 2007, 09:01:05 pm What neighborhood are you trying to open? If you aren't opening the main neighborhood then you'll have unknowns. All of the sims are kept in the main 'hood's file.

Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: Scruff on May 23, 2007, 09:45:49 pm ancienthighway- it was happening in every neighborhood.
TenshiiAkari12 - that was the ticket! Thank you so much! Problem solved. Title: something weird last time I used SimPE Post by: Tenshii~Akari on May 27, 2007, 09:11:18 pm Glad I could help. :angel:
