Hello again!

Recently I have made some sims in CAS. I exported their appearances, thank god! Because one of my sims just went invisible today!

He's CAS made, not a maxis sim. I did read the game help section but could only find references to invisible maxis sims. (I'm assuming by Maxis sim it means the maid, postman etc.)

I couldn't control him, as the pie menu came up, but whatever action I selected, disappeared immediately.

The other sims couldn't interact with him.

He had a plumbob over his head, and when I clicked on his icon, the camera focused on where he apparently was.

I told one of the other sims to take everyone Downtown, him and Shawn got in the car and sat and waited. But Mr Invisible didn't get in the car.

So then I was stuck, couldn't exit or anything, so........

..........I turned the laptop off! :faceslap: Just didn't know what else to do :(

I couldn't be doing with it anymore, so I just deleted my game files and replaced them with a game I had backed up before I made those 3 sims (copied the downloads over first so I've got my exported sims in CAS)

I read that if you have invisible Maxis sims, the Objects file is corrupted. So now I'm just wondering if the game is corrupted at all?

I'm off to bed for a cry so please answer me :help:

I'm hoping to play again tomorrow and hopefully not have any problems, fingers crossed!

Thankyou everyone :)

if non of the other sims do that invisible crap, it probably is just him that has a problem

because 'mister invisible' is a cas made sim he should have a .package file somewhere

and you say you exported his appearance so you might find it by his name in the packaged sims or in saved sims
even the ones you don't 'package' have one (harder to find but they have one) in downloads if I'm not mistaking

you could check that file one for corruptions

there is something about that in the how to section I think.

I read a lot the last few weeks and I don't remember the exact place to look for it

I believe it has something to do with a function of simpe
but I am not the expert so I don't know how that works exactly
