Misc questions about editing a town

Post by grallonsphere » November 27th, 2018, 11:02 am

Quick update.  After upgrading Careers to 1.87 I tested again and still my sim can enroll, pays his tuition, can attend all extra curicular classes but it remains 'too early to attend class'.  So I dropped him out of uni and just gave him a degree with NRaas. 

Also, the game clock has stopped working - it's constently 8:59 PM now.  I just exited so I'll see if clearing the usual caches and reloading will help.

Finally, a persistent problem in all my games: my sims will regularly get stuck in front of the toilet after using it.  I have to NRaas -> MC -> Advanced -> reset them - which may have an incidence on all the other troubles.  I definately enjoy building things a great deal more than playing this finicky game :(

Misc questions about editing a town

I would be much more concerned right away about the stuck game clock and the toilet thing than Homeworld Uni not working as intended. The former are signs of a broken game, the latter is a nifty cool feature that for reasons we haven't quite determined yet, isn't functioning properly for you.

-- Are these issues specific to one ongoing save or world only?
-- Do the same things happen (the clock and toilet issues) on a new test game, on a clean game folder with nothing in Mods\Packages other than up to date versions of NRaas mods?
-- Can we get some specs on the machine you are playing on or, if you prefer, the first 40 lines of the DeviceConfig.log file that would be in the active TS3 user game folder (in Documents)? Not the long lists of game options, the top parts that come before all of that.

After reloading the clock was back to normal.  The toilet thing has been consistent throughout this game at least.  I started as a teen, player a few weeks then aged myself up and went to the uni world where I met my boyfriend.  After graduation we returned to the original homeworld and got married.  Then we moved out to Brooklyn Heights.  Now my main has just been abducted by aliens (3rd time - twice while at Uni - they have an interest in him) and after returning I told him to get some sleep and right after dressing down to get in bed he disappeared!.  He's there, but invisible. :D

Misc questions about editing a town

Another update.  I scrapped the previous game and started a fresh one, still in Brooklyn Heights.  The toilet problem started appearing almost right away as well.  I'm beginning to wonder if my using of Oniki's "Kinky World" isn't interfering.  It has a number of settings that overlay the base game ones (or those of NRaas for that matter).  I already know 'reset outfits' and 'stuck auto-reset' have to be off, but there's also a setting when you can specify whether or not to get nude, or nude if aroused, while using the toilet.  Could that be it?

(groans) Sorry, wish we had known that the KW mod was in play as we could have saved a lot of time here although we probably would have gotten around to finding out eventually. Yes, that is the main cause of your issues. The KW mod and NRaas are not compatible with each other, many of the mods here cannot be used at all with that one and others will fight for the same game resources. The conflicts are deep enough that I'm afraid we have to say that any ongoing games that have KW in play or have ever had it in play even if now removed are not supportable on this site. If the clock and bathroom things are happening even without NRaas mods in play, then the KW developer and its user base would the place to turn for guidance.

If you have an ongoing game that has never "seen" the KW mod for which you would like assistance in connection with NRaas mods, please feel free to start a new thread. For now, we'll lock this one up as we cannot really be of any help.
