Relationship panel problem

MayaRose1138 · July 2018

So, I started a new save in Appaloosa Plains about two weeks ago to attempt a cat challenge, where my sims were going to adopt as many cats as possible, then put them up for adoption again a week later. I have got 9 days into the challenge, and 14 cats, and when I logged on today, I had five cats come up with massive relationship panel problems - as in, there is no-one listed in their panel, and it keeps giving me error notices for Nraas Relationship Panel... like 200 notices at once! Is there any hope of fixing my game or is it gone? Do I just need to take out the five cats (all of whom were born in the shelter) or is my game lost?

I take it that you are also using mods to extend the allowable household size on the cats? Under EA standard, it sounds like you are way over the limit already (if I am understanding that part correctly).

On the RelationshipPanel mod script errors, we couldn't begin to say what's going on there until we see some samples of these error logs zipped together and uploaded to us at NRaas.

(Yes, we know that Wikispaces is shutting down later this year, you can dismiss any warnings about that as we will have moved to our new site by then)

The maximum cats I've had in the household is 9, because I don't have enough beds for them all and I'm trying to keep it down a bit

. I'll have a look at how to upload this afternoon. I might also try the backup save (which I didn't think of yesterday) and see how that goes.

Just to clarify what I mean by the household limit, these are the mods that extend it:
http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Which Mod FAQ#Overstuffed

NRaas StoryProgression in particular and its max household size option would be required to allow such a household to hold together should the player ever switch active households, even for a moment to check something out or with the game clock paused. The game itself doesn't know what to do with an inactive household of that size, so without SP protection or that from another mod (such as Awesome, which handles this another way) it will begin dissolving an already overstuffed one and the sims (cats) can indeed become unplayable.

NRaas > SP > Household (Caste, Town) Options > Household:Maximum Size:Pet> (default is 6)
(On a sim or the household lot tag for Household Options, on City Hall for Caste and Town Options)

Oh, I'd better check that. I know my household is set to 23 but I never think of checking the pet limit.... I'll go on in a few hours (can't do it this morning) and check that first and see whether it makes a difference.

The pet limit is set at 16. All but one of the cats were fine with the backup save, and it came up with 2,300+ error messages! Finding the script error file, saving and uploading now...

Well, I managed the saving part alright but it won't let me start a new page or upload anything.

You need to have a free Wikispaces account and a membership at NRaas (in that order) to be able to upload and open a support thread so that we, including our developer, have a place to respond. If you have that already, then you need to be logged in.

Sorry, I've been sick recently and haven't been on the computer much. I thought I'd fixed it by going into a new save but no, it did the same thing. And yesterday I started a completely new save with different sims, and it threw up a relationship panel error for one of the sims while he was at the library playing chess!

So I'll create a nraas account and files this afternoon - hopefully - and then you can see whether my games can be fixed, hopefully without reinstalling everything!
