I don't think my horizon is seasonal. But I actually have three, desert, lush and grey, and the lush one is fine with no gaps and the grey one has minimal gaps. I tried a different desert terrain map and same problem. I found some seasonal horizons to try, but I'll have to wait until SFS comes back up. http://greatcheesecakepersona.tumbl...4042017-see-the |

I have several witches in Polgannon and they are about to die from old age. Question is what to do with their cauldrons and spell books to avoid corruption? Is it safe to just sell them or it's better to abandon witchcraft objects first so that no witch is associated with each cauldron and book? |

Hm! Maybe I cloned the wrong mesh when I made the non-seasonal ones. I thought I'd fixed all of the ones I had but maybe not.... Thanks for pointing this out! I will check them all. ![]() EDIT: Yup, I must've cloned an un-fixed mesh when I made the non-seasonal ones. DUH! Fixed files are here: https://app.box.com/s/3064ewinxyv3e39ldkuhhbd6vyivh1u0 That should take care of the problem. Just let the fixed files overwrite any of the unfixed ones you have. ![]() | |
I'm mostly found on (and mostly upload to) Tumblr these days because, alas, there are only 24 hours in a day.

Umm not really sure here and I don't know of a fix off hand {Note: that I screwed up this way once in the past and ended up making my whole Neighborhood unplayable in my efforts to fix this sort of problem, so I hope that you have a recent backup.} Anyway I do have a fairly good idea as to how you screwed up, from what you wrote that David was doing I am guessing that somewhere in the Business was a customer that was not leaving for what ever reason. So you saved the Business with the Customer there and the game still thinks the Customer is there with the Owner. So what you should do in this sort of circumstance is make sure that there is no one besides the owner and the owner's family members at a business when trying to leave the business. In the future when playing any Owned Business have a Merola's Mirror and or The Sim Blender there or place one there for this purpose. The Mirror so that you can look in the Other or NPC categories and find any stuck or otherwise Customers. Then you can use MoveObjects on or use The Sim Blender and the Teleport section to remove them from the lot. Or just use The Sim Blender to remove non residents from the lot. Several options will work, it sort of depends on how you like to do it. I am sorry that I don't have a fix, maybe there is someone else who might have a fix? I hope so. Otherwise I hope that you have a recent backup. | |

AnyGameStarter's download page says "the installer will let you - in addition to create new games - to delete existing games or making them permanent" so would think yes, because once you make a game permanent, it becomes an existing game, which you should then be able to delete. Does that make sense? Quote:
The simwardrobe controllers aren't going to change Maxis UI--you aren't going to be able to click on an employee and choose "Be Gardener", for example, if that's what you're looking for. Also, I believe a sim's job assignment will still be blank. What the controller does allow you to do is click on it (it's a red tool box, found in either Misc, Misc, or in the Build gardening section) and assign gardening tasks to sims. You can use it with the plant signs and the planting controller (I think that one looks like a hoe) to make employees plant certain crops in a particular area, too. But again, it won't change the UI--that'll still say unassigned, but sims will do the work. @Peni Griffin, it is a common/known glitch and the last time I got it, I just saved, exited to neighborhood, then re-entered. The glitch was gone. But I'm thinking that might be because I have No Sim Loaded, which I think deletes off world sims loitering on a lot. According to this thread, the bug is caused by an invisible sim still stuck on the lot somewhere and you need a mod that clears visitors (like a teleporter or the Visitor Controller) or stuck invisible sims (like the batbox). So the best option would be to restore a backup from just before you moved David and Sharla out and clear the lot of invisible sims/off world loiterers. Failing that, see if you can still enter the business lot (the game saved the lot with them on it, so it's worth a try) then clear the lot and send them home. They might not be living at home when you get there, but hopefully it should allow you to play the home lot again, and then you could move sims in as needed. Quote:
I have never heard of this issue, and don't believe it to be a problem but if you are really worried about it, just unassign them. Or delete/sell them before they die. Can anyone else weigh in? And bump for DrewInTheSky's question, cuz I've no idea. Quote:

Can someone remind me what file I need to upload and in which forums, so someone who knows how to read said file can tell me why my game just crashed unexpectedly please? |

@Rosebine In the Logs folder inside The Sims 2 folder there will be one or more files whose name begins with ObjectError_ those are the files which knowledgeable people read to diagnose problems in the game. I would create a new Thread in the Sims 2 Help Forum {assuming that it is a something to do with the Sims 2} and attaching your log to that post. If you have more than one you should probably open them in Note pad or something and check to see which one is the correct one, or you could go by the creation date if you know that the error happened on a particular date. Hope that this helps. I also hope that you get your issue resolved and your game works correctly soon. | |

Thank you so very much. ![]() It happened today, so I thought I should ask here before even re starting the game..so I have the proper file from right after the crash. But I do not have an object error file. Sorting by date, the only ones I have for today is one of each :AppErrors, AudioErrors and Sims2Exception. |

What I wound up having to do (this is a casual hood and I'm not nearly as diligent about backups as I normally am) was: Move David and Sharla onto a lot. Have David sell the lot. (Still can't bulldoze it or get into Ottomas Prime.) Teleport all the rest of the family over. Move them in with the teleporter. (David couldn't just invite them to move in because the game was sure one of them was still at the business lot.) Move them all to the family bin. Bulldoze the business lot. Move them back into their old home. Completely refurnish it. Rebuild the business, have David buy it again and rehire Jacob Martin (mysteriously, at more than twice the "fair" wages he'd had before). I suspect he was the invisible stalker, as I'd had to send him home twice in the first incarnation of the business, and this time he didn't want to leave, mysteriously reappearing and taking up his bartending duties again three or four hours after being sent home because David'll never be able to afford his own place if he has an employee there constantly at $104 per hour! The batbox is up in the rafters and next time this happens I trust I'll remember to clear invisibles off the lot with it. |

Rosebine, I think you'll only get that file if you had testing cheats on at the time. Try to recreate the error with testing cheats on and you should be able to get it. And it's good you found a workaround Peni. |

@Phantomknight I got it to work. It's nice to have an employee help me with the harvest and fertilizing, but they don't plant seeds. Here's a random question. I noticed that my game screenshots are very small and I have it set on the largest image. Is there another way to get a screenshot while I'm in the game? |

I stopped using the ingame camera to take screenshots, as you said..too small. Most will tell you to get Fraps, I use Bandicam. But there are many programs you can choose from, that save pictures to a folder of your choice. basically, you could press prt scr (print screen) 50 times in a row, and you'd get 50 saved screenies in that folder. I just bought my license for Bandicam, as I really like that program. It also record and is awesome. |

I bought the license to Fraps recently. I'm not completely in love with it, but the screen shots look good and, according to reviews, quality is better but files larger than some others. I also recently got Photozoom Pro 7 so I can enlarge or shrink photos without losing quality. |

I have Fraps as well because I can't prt+screen with my computer. I can't buy the full version so I have to take .bmp screenshots which turn out very large, so I had to download a batch converter (can't remember the name right now) that also compresses the image. My screenshots come out good in quality and size if I don't edit them in Photoshop. Maybe it'll help to change your screen resolution size, mine is 1600x900 iirc, and they don't come out stretched or warped. |

I am one of those that uses Fraps, just the free one. It takes BMP shots and puts them in a folder, then I change all of them in one go to jpg or png with FastStone, also free. Fast and easy. | |

I have some questions if anyone can help me out. 1. What mod removes sims from this screen? https://imgur.com/a/wNSXWWH 2. I can't get this mod to work, any ideas why? http://www.modthesims.info/d/545239...halt-roads.html My roads look like this with the mod installed: https://imgur.com/a/0bBP8L1 (solved 3, turns out my laptop was using the integrated graphics for ts2 and not my 1050ti) 4. The download links for Neighbourhood: Reboot don't work anymore, do any of you have the files? (SimFileShare is down) |
