RippyTheGator napisał/a:Hey, So I have problems too, but I have yet to see anyone list the problem I have. Everything works fine in my game, except anything to do with booking vacations or when I go to France, China, or whatever the other one is when I click on anything instead of an option coming up an option will come up with the directory of that option, so its a bunch of code jibberish in the option bubble. Same with booking a vacation just all code instead of text. Any ideas??

You have any pre-WA mods that changes game text? ie BetterNames or something of that nature?

My sim, Don Lothario, went to France and bought up big - lots of nectar, a nectar maker and a scooter thing - but when he returned to riverview none of these show in his inventory. Then he went to China, when he returned there was a clone of him

Riverview can't handle 2 Don Lothario's

The nectar maker should be in the family inventory. Haven't heard about cloned sims before but I've had inventory items either moved between sims or cloned. I've got a sim with two law enforcement beepers.

Thanks for replying

But the nectar maker wasn't in the family inventory either

Lots of mysteries in this game huh?

Hi all.
I just installed World Adventures and the new Design & Hi-Tech,(also called High-End Loft Stuff)and even though it starts fine I can't let my sims study anything or even work out. There are no skill gaining books like cook books to buy in the bookshop and none in the bookshelfs. If I click on the tread mill work out comes up as an option, but clicking on it doesn't actually give the command - nothing happens.

I searched high and low through all the bugs and fixes, but can't find anything to do with skill points or the lack of skill books.

I'd really appreciate any help.
Thanks.

I'm assuming that you're doing this is an older neighborhood. So I might suggest you try starting a brand new neighborhood and see if you have the same problems. If the new neighorhood works out fine you can copy the families you want to save to the bin and place them in the new neighborhood.

Other than that... well I'd have to suggest a complete manual uninstall and reinstall (especially since that appears to be the standard kneejerk reaction from tech support these days for every little problem).

All I can really tell you is in my experience with WA, the older your neighborhood is, the more problems it's going to have.

Oh! here's a thought.. now that I'm really thinking about it this sounds suspiciously like a mod conflict to me.

If you have pre-WA mods that say.. change what's available in the bookstore, or change object behavior etc.. try removing them.

I had a few pre-WA "no-autonomous" mods I had forgotten about. I thought the WA AI was so stupid that sims would leave the house and then just stand around on some commercial lot 24/7 and never leave. Until I looked at hacks folder and realized one of my mods was 'no autonomous go-home'

I removed that and a few others and now everyone behaves normally. heh Go figure.

So if you have any mods that alter-tweak game behavior, back them up and take them out. You can slip them back in one or two at a time and figure out which ones are causing problems.

I have been lucky so far - only ONE glitch.

But its a really annoying one. I have a sim who needs to maximize the charisma skill, so therefore he needs to make a lot of friends and have a lot of relationships with other sims.

He & his wife went on a trip to Egypt, and came home missing all of their foreign friends from their relationship panels. They had been to China before and everything was fine - they came home with about 2 new friends each.

I haven't seen this in the list - but I might have missed it. Has anyone else come across this?

Are they missing entirely or are they just greyed out at the end of the relationship list?

Everyone you know who is not currently in the same neighborhood gets greyed out and moved to the back.

I STILL have the problem with jumpy sound, which persisted well before WA but I really wish it could get fixed.

And my game crashes whenever I try and build a basement.

Yep, they have disappeared completely, not moved to the back of the list to be "long distance"

Hi there! It seems I'm one of the lucky ones here, because I didn't encounter big problems from my sims3 adventure world, still there is one issue... I went to Shangri-La, China and my quest was to defeat Duo Hong (or whatever his name is

) and after entering the tomb I pushed a statue right in front of the main access door and move on with my quest, unfortunately my vacation time had expired and I was shifted back home. When returning to China to finish my quest, guess what?! I cannot finish it because I the pushable statue is right where I left it

 blocking the access. Can anyone please help me with this one? Is there anything I can do? I'd really appreciate any help.
Many thanks.

The first time my Sim went to France in the allotted 3 days she did the beginning of the Landgraab Chateau adventure and the museum one, they finished fine and she returned home. When she returned to France and continued the Langraab Chateau adventure all she could do was to enter the ball room, nothing besides for the windows are click-able. I know the radio is suppose to be turned on but my Sim can't even select it, so I dropped that quest to see if re-accepting it would help (still waiting to beable to re-accept it)and I got the continuation of the museum adventure and the same thing happened. Nothing in the museum is click-able. So needless to say I can get nowhere with France and The China quest that has you go to France is in the Landgraab Chateau as well, same thing nothing is click-able in the house after you go through the back door or the ballroom door.

I have trouble with an adventure in the expansion pack. It is in France, the groundskeeper's journal. The request is to find the journal, which i have. But i cannot complete the request because the game doesnt register that ive got the journal! so i cannot hand in the journal and therefore am stuck on this adventure!

I've had the same problem. My Sim went to China, made friends with everyone, and even had them travel to her home to visit a few times. Then, when I was trying to have them over again, it said I hadn't become friends with enough foreign people to have them over or something like that. So I checked my relationships, and sure enough, they had disappeared... even the father of one of my Sim's children. :s And this is when the family tree starting being all ********.
