Help finding a file

[BAMfanatic]

When I run the testingcheatsenabled the adult singer error pops up, but I can't find the file to delete it.   I'm not sure if it's also what's causing my sims characters to have to keep resetting also.

I would be very thankful if anybody could help me out.

Maybe a hack or an object conflicting with a one the careers. Might want to test your game without anything in your downloads folder, to see if it's only downloads related. If the problem persist, you can locate your error log by directly EA\TheSims2\Logs and try to look for your most recent one. Then try and attach it to your post so someone can help you.

Thanks for the advice.

Here's the error log for the Adult Singer.

In that same Logs folder, look for a file called CustomContentObjects.txt. Open it in Notepad, then use the Search function (Ctrl+F) to find the word Singer. I'm guessing that the career is called "Singer" or something similar. It's erroring as "Adult - Singer", which simply means that it's not the teen or elder career, but the adult career as a Singer. Once you find the line that has "Singer" in it, it should hopefully indicate what type of custom content it is and where it is located. Take note of the location and find the file, then remove it.

Unfortunately the error log doesn't help us find the file, but your CC listing should help you locate it.

Yes, in the error log the job is listed as being called 'Singer'.

Sorry it took so long to reply, but my internet has been down for the past few days.  I tried that, but it didn't find anything.  Thanks for the help though.

Did you find CustomContentObjects.txt? Can you please post it here as an attachment?

[BAMfanatic]

Here you go.

I haven't read through it all but to start off with, you have several redundant hacks. You have at least 2 if not 3 versions of the censor blur remover. Just 1 should suffice you, 2 is too many, 3 is overkill. So my guess would be that something is conflicting, but I don't remember enough about which hacks conflict with what to say what it could be.

Perhaps you should organise your hacks by creator rather than having them all in one big lump? I know that some of TJ's hacks need to load after Pescado's, so subfoldering would really help with any conflicts due to TJ hacks loading before Pescado's.

The error referring to "Singer" could be about the person being in the Entertainment career at Lounge Singer level rather than about you having a custom career hiding amongst your CC. Try sorting out your CC, getting rid of redundancies, etc, and see if that helps.

I'll definitely take that adice.  thanks so much for the help.

So i found out what was making my sims reset.  Someone mentioned that carrigon's fretime whistling ack might be the problem, and that was it.
