Ambitions Patch: 1.14/2.9/3.5/4.2
« on: July 08, 2010, 03:20:51 PM »
Finally! Though I haven't opened a game since installing the new Sims 3 patch, the patch notes looks promising. I'm not sure if all of the consignment store issues have been resolved or not. We'll see soon enough. If your a Tournament player, remember to patch up before advancing your character(s).

The “Possession is 9/10 of the Law” Lifetime Wish now requires your Sim steal items worth the appropriate number of Simoleons before being completed

Does this mean the car-issue hasn't been solved yet?

Sounds good!

I noticed, they haven't fixed the Family Tree aka My Sim Just Had A Mystery Baby In France/China/Egypt Bug.  My guess is that it'll be a tough one to fix.  :(

Well, I followed their directions, and I'm patched and my (challenge) game is running fine. I just added back my CC stuff. I can't tell from the names what they are, sadly. My crazy Sally likes to wear this shirt that I just loathe, usually just with panties or a bikini bottom. The shirt's got to be CC, but it's the first time I've seen it, so I guess I could be wrong. Maybe they have hidden wardrobe items only Sims with particular traits can wear, because she was still wearing it (not to mention showering in it) when I had all the CC removed. Oh well.

I'm thinking that I should load up the game I was playing right before I started the Challenge so I can see if they fixed being able to put your design sketches in your portfolio as a Stylist. I've reached the top of the career in that game, but my portfolio is only 52% full. Okay, this is almost certainly off-topic. If I post on it again I'll put it where I should. Under Ambitions, I think?

P.S. What the Mysterious Gnome is a "laundry bear"? Better not be that saccharine bit of fluff that sells fabric softener.   >:(

Hey, Branr (wherever you are :)), I deleted your thread simply because I had already made this one. I saw that you had already found this one, so we should be good.  :D

New Patch, New Problems
« Reply #5 on: July 08, 2010, 04:40:53 PM »
So I finished downloading the new patch, and I'm officially having problems... already. :(  Specifically one of my Wishmaster's is invisable.  And when I had him go and "plan outfit" I discovered why.  Here is what he now looks like, in all his glitchy glory.

Everyday Outfit


Formal Outfit


Sleepwear


Athletic Wear


Swimwear


It doesn't allow me to change any of his outfits or hairstyles (I tried the mirror too).  I have no cc or mods in my game, and I don't get any content from anywhere besides The Store and my game disks.  So that's not it.  My guess is that when they "fixed" the hairstyles bug they added some other bug that causes this.

For reference, here is what my guy looked like before this happened.  He's the third guy from the left.

Please see my post New Patch, New Problems.  

I seriously wish I had finished the Wishmaster's Challenge before I had updated my game. :(

Well, that stinks. One other thing, Aria. You can't change appearance (including clothing) at all in Wishmasters. The only thing you touch in CAS is the dice to roll the personality and LTW. And once your game starts that thinking continues. You don't change appearance. Not a huge deal, just wanted to let you know.

Oh, I'm aware of the rules.  I was just trying to see if I could solve the problem by switching outfits.  But I can't because it won't allow me to make any changes anyway.

Okay, I understand now. You patched up, then discovered your Sim was invisible, and then tried to change his outfit to rectify the problem. Gotcha.

Yeah, except that he's invisible in normal game play, and I can only see the above in CAS.

So, the only way you can can spot him in the challenge game is he's got the green plumbbob above him?
