The Patch for BV solves that bug:
Complete list of changes: Note: Not all fixes will take effect on existing The Sims 2 Bon Voyage saved games. If you have an existing lot, Sim, object or neighborhood that does not seem to be improved by this patch, we recommend that you replace the affected object, or create either a new family, lot or neighborhood, depending on what is affected by the bug.
* Sims will no longer have the option to call vacation service NPCs after acquiring the business perk "Head for Numbers" which was causing a crash. * Sims will no longer have the option to "Call Taxi" using their cell phones if they have driven to the community lot with an own-able vehicle which was causing a crash. * If the Sim misses the shuttle, it will no longer return to a vacation lot without the Sim at the end of the vacation. Sometimes, this caused the vacation lot to become unusable. * Game will no longer create new vacation NPCs each time a lot is visited which was causing many issues due to character file overload. Any existing extra NPCs will be unlinked and their character files greatly reduced in size. *Periodic Events Controller will no longer loop twice per hour through each neighbor which was causing extreme lag on certain machines. *Autonomous water-balloon and snowball fights have been tuned so the interaction will occur less frequently."

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / Securom FIX

Thank you for the link. But I need a "translator", because seems that the game still needs Securom to run.
"Some community members who have uninstalled The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories games from their PC's have expressed concern about some files and folders relating to the SecuROM copy protection system that are not deleted along with the rest of the The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories game data. In response to this concern, Sony DADC has provided our customers with a utility that will remove these files and folders.
Instructions: Save the file to disk, double-click it, and follow the prompts. Please make sure you have your game CD's available when running the utility.
Please note that if you choose to re-install any of The Sims 2 or The Sims Stories games listed below after running a utility, the files that had been previously deleted by the utility will be re-installed on your PC. These Sims 2 and The Sims Stories will not launch without these files installed on your PC."

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Discussion / I sent my family on vacation, they are stuck in a netherworld between home and twikki

Go to your main hood, to a family which one of it's members is best friend with one of the lost family. Phone the "lost" sim, and invite him over. Then, propose to him to move in (take care that the family has less than 5 members), and take with him his rest family.
After you moved them in, tell the husband to find his own place, and add to him his family. They will be in the Sim Bin, but with 20,000$ only.
You have to buldoze their vacation lot, and their main hood lot.
Bottom line, you have to start with them again. You can use the money cheat to increase their wealth.

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Discussion / No more "fumes" after burglar's raid
|

BV fixed one very annoying event: after burglar's raid, no matter if he was caught or not - all the sims went around a looong time "fuming" and annoyed about it, and hating the burglar very long time (the same they do after breaking up). Today I had a burglar. First - one sim continued to sleep; the other one got up, but went to play; the third (kid) looked at the fight. After the burglar was beated by the policeman, he ran away. I checked the sims condition, and seems that none of them was depressed by the raid, and they didn't hate the burglar (he even didn't appear on their relations panel). What a relief... .

The Downloads folder doesn't appear, even if you had it, after installing a new EP. You have to save on your desktop, or in any safe place the following folders, before you install an EP: 1) Downloads 2) Saved Sims 3) Collections (if you have downloaded collections) 4) Packaged Lots 5) Your playable hood (just to be on the safe side).
The install deletes these folders: Downloads, Saved Sims, Packaged lots - and shows the Collections file only with default content.
After the install, you have to paste again all the four folders, and allow Custom Content, when enterring the game. (Check the upper rectangle). Then exit the game, and enter again. You will find all your downloads folder CC again (unless you didn't save it before - then you have lost all your custom content).

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / Can anyone help with a few problems I am Having?

About your first question: one of your sims is attracted more to his own kind sims. I had the same problem with Nervous Subject, in Strangetown. I matched him with a girl, and no matter how many "kiss - make out" I orderred, I couldn't have the option: "propose - engagement". It was very weird, as he is a family sim. Then I checked his character with an external program (you can make it with the SimPe), and found out, that his attraction to women is -10, and to men - 0. Only when I changed the attraction to +10 for women - I got the option to propose.
