My sims won't take their turns playing gnubb
« on: July 02, 2013, 09:46:15 AM »
I can't say I'm that invested in playing gnubb, but I did go ahead and buy a set, so I thought I would try it out. If I tell a sim to practice throwing the baton, they will stand stock still in front of the set, and the fun bar goes up. I thought maybe it just didn't animate, or I wasn't getting the animation for some reason. No big deal, right?

But when I try to have two sims play each other, the first never actually throws, so the second never gets a turn. They just stand there. I'm not sure if this is the right place for this post, but has anyone had this problem? I couldn't find any reference to it anywhere online, so maybe it's just me.

I did have the problem with them just standing there and not starting the game. I tried moving the set, but it didn't help. I sold it and bought a new one and that worked.

That's pretty much exactly what I tried, in the same order. No luck. Ah, well. I may try replacing it again at some point.

I've had this as well, but only since patching to 1.55. Are you patched up?

Resetting the sims involved worked for a little bit, but it's still being weird on me. Maybe try that?

That's interesting. I hadn't gotten around to trying gnubb until just recently, so it would have been after the patch. If resetting your sims only helped temporarily, I'd just as soon find other ways to get them to interact and leave gnubb alone for now. Maybe the next patch will fix the problem.  :-\

Yes, this has happened to me post-patch with an existing Gnubb set, too. Neither a game against another Sim nor solo practice would work -- they'd just stand there staring into space.

I'm having problems with the gnubb set also. I put one on my resort lot and when I did my sim got a wish to play so I sent him over. He will go through the motion of resetting the pins and walk over to the line to make the first toss and the action cancels.
I've reset him, bought a new gnubb set and tried it on another community lot and his home lot and the same thing happens.
A clear conscience is usually a sign of a bad memory.

I see that the latest patch is supposed to have fixed this. Haven't tried it yet. Anyone else?
