Do it on all In world and all off world.  forcing error on all world doesn't do everything.


Done that, but do I have to reload the lot or anything? Because it still isn't fixing it.

Hi,

I had the same problem. It turned out it was something in the cep folder. The zCEP-EXTRA in the docmuments...Ea folder... sims folder. Also check the one in the (I am on an apple) but I think the program files folder in windows?  The sims folder...tsdata folder....Res folder....Catalog folder....zCEP-EXTRA folder...check and see if there are phones in one or both of the listed folders.  Take them out and put them on the desk top...restart your sims program and see if that fixes it.

Ahh finally a post that got me excited. However I did a full search of my HDD and found nothing called zCEP in it at all Sad

It's at MTS2.

I can't provide the link right now.

The site seems to be down.

Got the organizer, scanned everything and searched for anything with the word cell or phone in it. The only things that came up were some apple iphone decorations I downloaded with an apple store pack, however I still do know that somewhere in there in the usable cellphone, but as I've already said...I've never used it.

I was just thinking, if you go in the game, you can click on it and delete it that way.

If it's a buyable phone through the catalog.

What do you mean? I never had the phone in my lot...ever. So how can I delete it that way?

If it's in your downloads folder, it's in the game.

You actually don't have to use it or put it in any of your lots.

It should be in your electronics catalog, if I'm not mistaken. Look under, Phones or click on the All, it should show up IF it's buyable.

Did you look to the right of the catalog and see a symbol that looked like a folder?

If so, that's how you delete it.

Or, go into buy mode, click on the phone, then click on the swatch thingie or whatever it is, and try to recolor it. You can delete it that way also. Just make sure you click on the folder.

Not trying to annoy you. But in the future it might be easier to pull out your hacks / mods if they're all in the same subfolder. I know that you said that you will have objects that won't show up, but not necessarily - at least not action hacks / mods like "no autonomous coffee drinking".

If you do get that clean installer - yes, certain things don't show up with what type of hack / mod they are, but a lot do. You can organize them that way. At least most of them.

Just a suggestion.

...Including clothing that my sims are currently wearing for all of their clothing sets?
