Found a pre-release patch bug that I didn't notice before until I saw a thread about it earlier this afternoon. I lost the thread, but they said that their DV dragon couldn't be interacted with. The options were there, but the actions would cause their Sims to "freeze."
I have a dragon as well, so I tested this bug out. Turns out it only affects saved games; it doesn't affect new games.
However, I also noticed that it extended to my Magical Gnome. It wasn't jumping around or anything. My Sims couldn't even kick it over...
...until I renamed it.
Apparently, renaming Magical Gnomes and DV dragons resets them. I can only assume this may be true for all the objects that can be named by the player, like IF and minor pets (birds, turtles, snakes, etc.). Again, it's only for previously saved games. New games seem to be immune to this.
I'll be installing ITF on my next day off. I just wanted to test this bug out after finding out about it.

My bug happens just after clicking Play > from the launcher. I get an error that says I must insert my original EP11 DVD. Please see screenshots below with the last being the error. However I have all Origin downloaded base game EP and stuff. I have Movie Stuff and Into the Future with patch 1.63
Hi I just updated my game to patch 1.63 and noticed I had a new file in my download folder which is created today and I have never seen it before...
No mods or CC in my game and I have all EP and SP except for movie stuff and KPST.
SO the file is called:
FSIViewCountTracking the type is just "file" it 0 kb
Do you by any chance know what it's for? Google didn't really help out with this for me
I hate tracking, too, so I did something that might have been stupid and deleted it. But the next time I went into my Download file there it was again. Go figure ...
Thank you so much, crinrict, for this thread. You are a true tech god and a kind person to take your own time to do this. I'm new to the Forums, too. Never had any real problems in the past two years.

10. I own all EPs, all but Katy Perry SPs, and almost all the store.
This may be a technical question. I don't know. But my game worked great until I did the update and the new game this morning:
Saved everything to my update folder and installed the patch. Then, after arm wrestling EA/Origin to get my game (that's another story), installed Into the Future.
Tried to play but got stuck at Main Menu with a spinning circle around EA and no way out but go to Task Manager and end it, that was three times. Options and the cheat line weren't working.
Waited a while, went back in and got to Main Menu again. Spinning had stopped but it was requiring me to login, which I usually don't. Then it said my login was invalid over and over.
Waited again. Loaded my saved files back into the game with store content and no CC hair. I was trying to download some of my sets and the game kept starting itself. I stopped downloading and just opened the launcher and it started the game, again without me initiating game play. Did this three more times on its own. Would love to get in and try the new game. Do you think that it's possessed??? :twisted:
@janvel831: If you remember the name of the IF, you can reset him. Should work for the dolls too.
Hi Crin,
This did not work, I was unable to reset the doll. It's ok though, there are other ways to keep the social and fun up for toddlers, this was just one of the easier ways. It is strange because the play with the doll comes up in her queque, but then disappears and the doll is just not there. The moodlet stays, so that is a plus because she always has the moodlet.
FYI I disabled the mini game that comes up with the loading screen and any lag that I had is gone. Thank you Zeek for this info.
I noticed on my end that if I turn off the Interactive Loading Screen, the lag eventually disappears. I suspect that something in the patch wasn't gated correctly, as was the case with the previous patches they released prior to installing EPs. All I know is that for now, Interactive Loading Screens are turned off in my game and I've yet to experience major lag now.
Thanks for this information. I disabled the Interactive Loading Screen and the lag that I was experiencing is gone. I am not sure what you mean when you say interactions with dragons is only with regard to saved games. I am playing a saved game, and although my interactions with the dragons are slow and painful at times, they still work and I have had no freezing of my Sims when interacting with the dragons. I had this issue with the dragons before the latest patch and do not remember exactly when it started. I am pretty sure it was the patch before this one. I have noticed that my gnomes are not visible sometimes when they mess with things in the house such as the TV and radio, but they are quite active and visible around the house. As for my toddler's doll, it just disappeared and resetting does not bring it back. I can't rename it because it is gone and not in the toddlers inventory, there is not way to interact with it.
I didn't see anyone report this bug, so here goes. First, my information:
1. Are you using any Custom Content or mods? No mods and I don't think I have custom content installed, just store stuff.
2. Do you have Into the Future or just the Patch? I updated Origin and got the patch before ITF.
3. Which Patch Level are you at? 1.63
4. Did you start a new game or are you playing an existing ones? Existing game
5. Did you transfer an existing Sim over or are they new/Pre-Made? Existing sims I created
6. What town are you currently playing? EA or Custom? EA - Aurora Skies
7. What is your Operating System (Mac, XP, Vista, Win 7)? Win 8
8. Do you have the download or DVD Version of the game? Download
9. Are you reporting for the Future-World, Uni-World, Home-World or WA-World? Future World
I have all the expansion packs except for Showtime, and High End Loft and Outdoor Living SP. (Edited to add: I have not disabled the interactive loading screen yet, but I don't think that's the issue.)
First, the portal didn't land on my lot, but in a park across town. I found it, so no big deal.
Second, when my sims (Maelyn, a young adult, and her teen brother, Jamie) went into the future, I could only control Maelyn. Their avatars did not show up on the left side at all. Maelyn's avatar didn't show up as the active sim - there was nothing between the icons for the season and the moon. I could not get the dashboard (is that what you call it?) to open, so I couldn't track her needs or check her inventory or do anything of that nature. I played like that for awhile, until I had to leave for work.
When I got home from work, I played again. Now the avatars show up on the left, but the only active sim picture is Maelyn, even when I'm playing Jamie. The moodlets were the same, even though it was Jamie who was in trouble and grounded for being out after curfew - that moodlet showed up when Maelyn was active. I played for awhile, but after spending a bunch of time picking out outfits for Maelyn, when I was exiting that screen, the game crashed. That was the cherry on top, so to speak. I'm going to bed, as I have stuff to do tomorrow and if I'm lucky I'll get 7 hours of sleep.
Anyway, my issues are: avatars not showing up so I could switch between sims (originally - but that did change) and active sim picture not changing when I switch between them.
I'll probably just quit playing this one and start a new family, in case the issue is related to using sims I already had. (I do that a lot anyway, and they have a mean cat at home, so maybe my next family will be easier to deal with.)
@Wizardx: Could you try a new game to see if you have the same issue.
I started a new game in Midnight Falls using one of the premade families. I had the same issue. I also noticed that there was a delay before any of the playable sims became selectable. When the game started their info panels were blank. After about a minute the info panels appeared and I could select all the sims in the household, but I still couldn't direct them to interact with each other.
Bug - the game won't let my sims into his dorm at Uni - he just sits on the main neighborhood view screen in the dorm he has picked out to go to and the check mark to start the play is partly greyed out.
This is with the patch and game installed.
I have all patches, all updates of any kind.
Have all eps, sps, and most of the store.
No CC or mods and don't ever have either.
I started the game in IP - with one of my own Sims I made in CAS.
So I ended up having to quit the game with task manager as there is no other way when you are sitting on the Uni neighborhood screen with the sim waiting to go in their dorm. I also did try other dorms and even single houses. Just nothing happens. It is not froze or anything - it just will not go any further.
I know Uni was working fine last week as I was putting another Sims through Uni before the patch and game came out. In fact that sim finished Uni the day before the patch came out.
Everything was going great, even loading up Uni went fine - but got to the screen to pick the place to live and that is where I can't go any further. This stinks as I wanted him degreed in Science before I took him into the future.

Found a bug. It rains and hails in the nuts and bolts emporium. I have patch 1.63. My sim was getting hailed on when he was in the bot emporium.
Can you enter Edit Town while in the future and check if that shop has a roof/ceiling? They could have left that out, similar to how they built the above-ground tombs in WA that are hidden by the shells in Egypt.
@Reg: This has actually been going on for a while now. I do not know what is causing it. I even looked at a savegame that was supposed to have this bug and could not reproduce.
For some, a factory reset seems to work but that's about the only suggestion I have for this, if it happens in the Uni World. For other worlds a manual placing through Edit Town seems to work.

Thanks, crinrict. I had never seen anything like this before, so I thought it was worth bringing it to someone's attention.
I'll start a new family. This one didn't do what I want, which was to have the girl still be a teen when the elder adult died, and be the head of the household. Grandma hung on so long that the girl aged up, so that gameplay was messed up anyway.

The lights are missing on the Laser Rythm-a-con (Correct name?) and the tv picture on the new television is smaller than the actual screen. Plus some other minor things like plumbot spark kiss not appearing and the control screen on the plumbot maker.
Don't quite know if those are bugs, or just technical errors, haha.

Has anyone tried the 'Ask to Join' Jam action when playing a musical instrument. I had Hetty in the future and used the new guitar to start a Jam. I made sure it said Start a Jam Session and not just Play Alone. I tried clicking on several random Sims nearby and there was no option to ask them to join. It was not greyed out... it just was not there. I will test with some other Sims later.
Does the almanac of time work w/the latest incarnation of Overwatch? I had to take it out for the almanac to work but I see he's updated since yesterday but he doesn't mention this.

@PrfctAngl673: I can add to existing.

@natashaspy55: That usually happens with those files. They just recreate.
Try the factory reset on the first page and if it doesn't help, it's better to post in the technical section of this forum.
@janvel831: I think it's probably just a patching process fluke. Report back if it happens again.
@CaySedaiSim: Classical signs of corrupted games. Check the first page on what to do if you want to save the game or just start a new one as you said.

The lights are missing on the Laser Rythm-a-con (Correct name?) and the tv picture on the new television is smaller than the actual screen. Plus some other minor things like plumbot spark kiss not appearing and the control screen on the plumbot maker.
Don't quite know if those are bugs, or just technical errors, haha.

Issue: 'Ask to Join Jam Session' not an option.
Has anyone tried the 'Ask to Join' Jam action when playing a musical instrument. I had Hetty in the future and used the new guitar to start a Jam. I made sure it said Start a Jam Session and not just Play Alone. I tried clicking on several random Sims nearby and there was no option to ask them to join. It was not greyed out... it just was not there. I will test with some other Sims later.
Thanks in advance!
If this question is for me, I'm at 1.63 now. Any ideas on why some of us can't play with the digital from Origin yet?
Thanks
