Sim is Missing and the rest of the family can't sleep!!!
« on: May 01, 2012, 01:15:02 PM »
Hello Everyone!

Just a few days ago, I bought a new laptop and finally purchased my own Sims Deluxe (with Ambitions), Generations, Master Suite and Town Life. I created a male and female Sim who then had a daughter.

The daughter is now a teen. The parents won a prize for a free vacation. I accepted and the daughter threw a party. The police came, called the parents and the parents came back from their vacation. Unfortunately, only the mother returned. On the panel to the left, where their faces should be, the fathers face is blank in the box. If I run the cursor over his box his name still shows and he is still in their family tree, but he has seem to have disappeared. I can't see or play him.

So, hoping that the game would simply fix itself, I continued to play with just the mother and daughter (it's only been about an hour since the whole situation occured). But now, when it's time for them to go to bed, they can't sleep. They get in the bed and literally POP out of the bed within about 3 seconds. One second they're in the bed and then they just appear outside the bed and begin to do random things (walk downstairs, go to the bathroom, open refrigerator) and then do it all over again.....all night, so they never really get sleep.

What should I do???

SN: There has been no updates since I installed the games about four days ago, so I'm assuming that it is fully updated. Secondly, I've tried reseting each sim AND all sims....no luck.

Simply exiting the game and loading it again may solve the problem, but I'm not a computer wiz so sorry I can't help much!  :-[

I also get my sims "popping" out of places such as the hospital and it's really annoying, maybe a new bug?

hopefully you saved before the parents went away. BIG bug is the parent vacation. I would go back (if possible) before the vacation for the parents. My parents once didn't return and the teen had the time of her life. She threw parties, etc. for days! Had to trash the game. I now try not to accept parent's going onvacation and instead have the parents go out on the town; while the teen throws a party.
