My Game Says I'm Using Outdated Mods, But I'm Using All The Current Versions

SchweighsrSchweighsr Posts: 3,342 Member
I use Mods, mainly the NRAAS suite of Mods, but also a couple of others. Every time I load up my game, I get a message saying that I'm using Mods that aren't for the current edition of the game (I'm now updated to 1.69), but I checked all my mods and I am using the most recent versions. My game does crash every once in a while (but it crashed a lot more often before I started using the NRAAS Mods). This could possibly because I tend to let my Sims' inventories get bloated - and, yes, I know that is bad, and, no, I'm not going to stop - it is just the way I play.

So, I double-checked all my Mods and I am *definitely* using the latest versions of all the NRAAS Mods, however, I'm also using some Mods that *might* not be updated - I can't tell. There are:

- Classy Names by Miss Discordia over at MTS http://linna.modthesims.info/download.php?t=482047
- nointro by Rick, also at MTS http://modthesims.info/d/342922
- NF_MoarAndBetterPetNames - I'm not sure where I got this one from
- Velocitygrass_AddAnyLotSize from MTS, which is updated to 1.63 (although it says 1.55 and later) http://modthesims.info/d/471164
- Velocitygrass_Unlocked_Simport_Rewards again from MTS http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=470934

I guess I could live without Any Lot Size and Better Pet Names, but the others really make my game better. So is there any techie person out there (still) who knows if one of these Mods could be the cause of my game crashes? Is there any chance that there are newer versions of any of these Mods?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    It means you have core mods that need to be updated luckily there are not that many of them you will need the updated version of Error Trap if you have the old one you need the one for 1.69 http://nraas.wikispaces.com/ErrorTrap
    @igazor may see this thread and help with anything I might have missed.
    I'm just a little bit crazy LOL

    None of the mods you have listed are core mods and capable of producing the core version mismatach error message. There are actually only five TS3 core mods in common usage. All of the rest are script and tuning mods which cannot do this, unless you have a core mod of your own design or one with extremely limited distribution that we do not know about.

    It's updated for 1.69, but you do have to get the 1.69 release of the current version. The 1.67 release won't cut it, even though they are both currently v100. It is our intention to continue releasing future ErrorTrap versions in parallel so players on both patch levels can continue staying updated, much as we have done with Steam all along for players on that platform.

    NRaas UntranslatedKey - No 1.69 update is available, but this one is really for developers. An update will be provided upon request.
    CmarNYC's XCAS - A 1.69 version is available.
    Consort's 2xWeight&Fitness - A 1.69 version is available, only just recently.
    Awesome - They keep producing updates for other reasons, but not for patch 1.69. At least, not the last time I checked. The version mismatch message should be clicked through if this is what's triggering it and not affect gameplay at all.

    It does sound like the occasional crashing is coming from something else, though.

    I just want to say thank you to you and the entire NRaas team for making NRaas work with Steam. These mods have helped me tremendously. :)

    Can't take credit for any of that myself, of course, but I'll just say "you're welcome" on behalf of the mod developers. :)

    Thanks, igazor! I figured that it must be another problem, but wanted to double check. I'll make certain that I have the latest version of Error Trap (I think I do), but it is probably my bloated inventory coupled with the fact that I'm running a legacy, so I've got a large file size even with memories turned off.

    And thank all the Mod developers out there - my game wouldn't be playable without you!
