Trouble with the detective career

mwyatt139

Before I fully explain my problem, I need to preface with I get all my mods from www.modthesims.info as they are all tested by loyal fans and avid players with lots of feedback.

Now to my question. I've only tried the detective career so far and it's been great. A little tricky time management wise but otherwise really great. I can play for as long as I want but once I quit and go back in, I get a warning saying that things have been removed from the house, files are missing in game and if I continue to play, it could cause big problems in my game.

Today, I tested that warning out because I wasn't sure what problems could arise and I was curious.

So far, if I go back in, my sim will be unemployed and the detective, doctor, and mad scientist careers aren't listed when I look for a job.

I've heard of work around a where you can delete certain files and they will regenerate when you open it again. That works, but I don't want to have to do it all the time. I've tried repairing and updating but no repairs need to be made and my game is all up to date.

Lastly, I've checked my mods and all I have are reorganizing mods (like for build and buy mode), a skill mod to increase skills at lightning speed, a safer chance card mod, and a CAS recolor mod. All these mods are as updated as they can be so I'm not sure what else the problem could be. I'll try removing mods that I absolutely don't need to see if that helps but I was wondering if anyone else has had the same issue and if any help is forthcoming.

Feel free to move this post if needed. Thank you!

hey @mwyatt139 can you give the exact errors you are rec'ing, the first sounds like when you use the MOO and dont turn it off before exiting the game this will make items off the grid jump into your inventory. the next ones sounds like an error i was rec'ing as well but i think it had to do with me pulling out CC. its the last one i really want to know more about if my hunches are correct about the first two

next its unclear to me if you have pulled your mods and tested the game without them to confirm its not them. im a die hard mod user but whenever i encounter game glitches that is always the first thing i do

I don't use the move objects on anymore. I do use testing cheats true though. Oh yes I've pulled out all my mods and put them back in one by one.

Hopefully there will be an update if more people are experiencing this issue. I've never had to turn cheats off before. Hmm...back in the days of sims 2 and 3, after I entered a cheat, if I forgot to turn it off and I just quit, everything would be fine. No errors or anything.

I've had this issues before. I would load the game but then it would say that GTW basically wasn't installed. I solved this by simply restarting my game.

yea for this series you need to turn off MOO before exiting game and it can also be problematic with any lots from gallery if the builder used it as well. and possibly testingcheats. i dont know about you but testingcheats was the scariest thing with 2 it could corrupt completely the game file. never kept it on longer then necessary.

but i still need the exact errors before i can make any suggestions and you should keep the mods out until you resolve the problem in case they are exacerbating it
