Help with transmogrification - fixed!

[Sita]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask on this forum, if not, please feel free to move it! But I know several people here play the transmogrification game - making gemstones and metals into better gemstones - something we got initially in World Adventures.
I patched to 1.42 last week. I have all the EPs except Seasons. Apart from major lag, I didn't see much trouble, couple of crashes, normal after a patch. I reinstalled AwesomeMod and twallan's Error trap and now every time I send a Sim to the transmogrification bench to process gems (haven't tried with minerals yet) she will reset, or jump to some other part of the house, or simply drop the "Activate" action from her queue.

ETA:
It must have been a clash of mods, or an old AM or something. It works beautifully and consistently now.

Hm, I shall need to try that to see if I will have the same problem but your topic is in the right place: it is World Adventures.
I have other problems with not being able to do certain interactions and just like you: it seems to happen after that patch.
Hm, maybe this topic should better be placed in the Technical part of this forum or the place for the patch. I am not sure about that.
I will await the reactions from other members on your issue.

I've had no problems with mixtures of metals and gems to make tiberium, or with metals alone to make better metals.  I haven't tried gems alone.  If it is a mixture, did you have any meteorites, I haven't tried using them, but collecting causes the sim to reset, so I would anticipate problems.

[Sita]

No meteorites: normally with 4 cuts and 5 gems - or is it the other way around? and then duplicates for the rest - on the big bench - it will give me a soulstone.

But it never got that far, just jump-bug out. However when I took some mods out, it stopped jumping so my guess is that it's a bug - so far I know it's not Awesomemod and not Twallan's Overwatch. Still checking to eliminate the rest.

What do you mean, collecting resets the Sim?

[Wai]

Oh, I just meant that it causes the sim to jump back and the task queue to be erased.

I've done a bit more on Carter's, and there is no problem with any transfiguration, even including meteors.  I have no mods and no custom content, so, I suspect that either your mods/custom content may be at fault, or the particular game or family you are playing is bugged.
