A couple new glitches since the last patch
« on: February 14, 2010, 09:11:31 AM »
As I was playing my upcoming Physical Perfection walkthrough character this morning, I noticed a couple glitches that were not present before the most recent patch. #1) Sound just vanished completely from the game. I was able to carry on normally, but there was no sound. After about 5 minutes, the stereo could be heard again, but other sounds were still silent. When I saved and exited the stereo still still kept playing as the game was saving.

#2 My character's mate is a painter and there appear to be no "Paint a painting worth X simoleans" wishes. I've always had those wishes with prior painters, but there are none of those. So, that's kind of odd.

-------

EDIT: The wishes thing resolved itself when I fired up the game again. There was a "Earn $150 Simoleans from a painting wish." But, I know there are ones of lesser value that for whatever reason just never fired.

I have been experiencing something similar to the sound one for you.  From the CAS screen through the game, I can't hear my sims when they are talking unless I have the camera at a weird angle in game.  I can see their lips moving, just no voice sound.

I can't hear anything either but I still have painting wishes.

You can work WITHOUT patches but you can't work WITH them either.

I believe you meant to say you can't work without patches, you can't work with patches. If you did, then you just forgot to say "can't" as in the conjunction for can not and you put can in there instead.

I get the sound problems myself. I think it might be all wishes that are messed up. Another issue is with wishes popping up after you've already done what the wish was for.

I just took a martial artist to China and she got no wishes at all for martial arts training(she's disciplined and has physical perfection LTW).

For me it occured earlier, especially with photographic wishes (when my Sim made photo of Dragon Cave, a wish showed, for doing photo of Dragon Cave in sepia).
In this patch I have another 'small' problem: my another Sim was collecting some space rocks, then analyzed them and after that I can't do anything with them: sell, give to another Sim, drop on the ground. Weird, but I hope one day it will magically fix itself. Luckily, Sim's private inventory seems to be endless.

P.S. Sorry for my English, it's not my native language.

Sorry, I am very forgetful today.

Welcome to our Forum, ancymon!  This kind of wish is common in my experience.  Many times a Sim will get a wish to do something they've just done.  It's like they enjoyed it so much that they want to do it again.  I see it a lot in cooking, too.  In this case, you may not have used sepia in the first shot and your Sim was excited about it and wanted another shot in sepia.  This is just part of their personalities.  :)

Yeah, when my sims prepare e.g pancakes, they get a wish to prepare another plate!
This way they will become fat in no time!

Metro, did the problems happened with a new game or did they happened with a savegame that was created prior to the patch?.

Regarding the no-wish bug, this has been around at least since 2.3 patch, save & reload normally fixes it.

It was a character created under the new patch.
