View Full Version : Can't control a sim, always has error with every command

Hello, I have a sim named Moran.

Okay, he's a sim born between two pre-made sims, and he's an adult, with two children. Umm...the thing is, I like playing the game with 'boolprop testingcheatsenabled' on, even though it can cause problems.

One day, I was playing on a lot that he was visiting, and I used my favorite option, 'Make Selectable' or something, and that usually goes smoothly. However, all I can remember is I might of used that option on him at a bad time, and ever since...

An error keeps coming up whenever I give him a command. Others can interact with him, but whenever Moran is going to initiate a command, or action, an error will just pop up. I tried reseting him, didn't seem to change a thing. Deleting him and then bringing him back with the Tombstone of Life and Death didn't help either.
Canceling the error thingy didn't help too.

Well, that is not the only error I get. I also get 'AttractionScore', which doesn't happen just to Moran, but to everyone else too.

Help? :(

What happened when you worked the FAQ, as the newsgroup instructed you to do before you posted here?

Are you talking about where I am to post? Because honestly, I have no clue and is slow at understanding. The thing I know best is that I have one corrupted Sim that I need to know how to fix.

You should use "reset" rather than "cancel" or "delete" when that happens.

The FAQ that you were being asked about is here: http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Game_Problem.

It should help discover exactly where the problem is. In this case you are hoping that you didn't corrupt your entire installation, although there is a (very slim) possibility that a bit of corrupt CC is actually causing the problem, and it's just a coincidence that you noticed it after making a sim selectable.

Also, have you got a recent backup from before you had the problem?

I have no recent back up, just a back up prepared in case I did something dangerous to fix the problem. I always use the 'reset' button, but that only fixes the corrupted sim for a second or two. He's the only one not working properly, everyone else is just the same. I dare not use delete.

Just follow the FAQ from beginning to end. Backing up is the first step. Create a new backup; don't overwrite your existing backup.
