Problem with Opportunities
« on: September 29, 2012, 04:38:39 PM »
My sons girlfriend is having problems with her game. She called me and said that when we clicked on the school for the recital, the option wasn't there. She has the op but on any given day, it's never in the menu for the school. Is she resets the school or the Sim, she gets the opp again, and the same thing.

Has this happened to anyone here? She said she seen on the other forum but no solution. I'm hoping that maybe someone here might be able to shed some light.

thanks Shannon

It's because she's using a school that is also something else like the stadium.   There is a major issue going on right now with bundled rabbit holes.  I don't know if mods are fixing it for some people but a lot of people have been noticing the problem even here on the board.    My suggestion for her would be to place another school down somewhere from the community lots section and see if it happens again.  It shouldn't though.

LOL OH Rica Rica, Your not gonna make this easy on me are you? I'm not to sure she can do that. I'll call her and find out. If not looks like I'll be paying her a visit this week. SMH!! Give me patience.. LOL

Edited:

She's playing in Appaloosa, so I told her to make a lot for the new Private school and put it down in town.

What is SMH?  Please spell things out because not everyone knows what abbreviations mean.

I was curious as to what it meant, wiki gave me the answer (I'm impatient, didn't want to wait for an answer).  I agree that it can help for them to be spelled out; problem is, what is common in one area won't be in another area.  Generally not intentional, but are often used automatically without realizing it won't be recognized.   Frustating though. 

Anyhow.  SMH is Shaking My Head   and it can be used for So Much Hate, but I think in this post the first is the meaning.

Sorry about that. Yes it is was for Shaking My Head. You would think that at 42yrs old, I would know to explain better. I'll be more careful in the future Pam. I just get to typing and it's out before I realize it..   :-[

Is anyone else having problems with opportunities lately?

I'm not sure where to post this, but I've been cruising this forum all night looking to see if others are having my problems with opportunities, so moderators feel free to move this if I'm in the wrong place.

I have had two of my dynasty heirs come up with the "Smooth, Like Verbal Butter" charisma op and neither could get the Smooth Recovery interaction, they only got Apologize.  Between them they must have insulted every Sim in Sunset Valley but to no avail.

Similarly, my Culinary Career Sim got a couple of career opportunities from the Little Corsican Bistro for "Serving the Masses" (prepare 2 group meals of xxx and bring to work), but the op doesn't go into the op panel when I selected it.  I saw the little chef's hat go into the panel but when I clicked on the star the op is not there?  The "Bring the Buffet" and "Burners Down" culinary opportunities did exactly the same thing.

The Law Enforcement heir has something similar with the "Improving Disguises" (travel to China and meet 4 locals) op.  When I get my heir to China, the op is in the panel until I try to greet the first local and then it disappears.  My Journalist Sim heir had something similar with the "Exotic Living" (go to France and interview 5 locals) op and the "Historical Interview" (go to China and interview an elder) op.

I know I can easily nix these ops but sometimes time is of the essence to get my 10 ops and move my heir out. 

These are the op glitches I've noticed - any suggestions forum?
