TS3 just gave me a genuine fright of my life - gonna sleep with the light on tonight

I was just about to have Billy's mom read him a little bedtime story when, all of a sudden, he did this:

bjeie0.jpg

He seriously made me jump - it was like the movie The Thing.

He's never done it before - only just when I thought I would give him a bedtime story and then, all of a sudden, he shot up out of his cot like a rat up a turnip.

The two parent Sims did not bat an eyelid; however, tonight I'm sleeping with the light on and a kitchen knife under my pillow.

No more bedtime stories for Billy.

ps. I don't use custom content - he's wearing standard clothes - standard hair, etc.

pps. This should mean we can have toddlers in TS4, considering they made teens and adults the same height - just make 6' toddlers too - job done.

    Toddlers used to do that when they watched TV too, growth spurts are getting ridiculous.

    Was he a child that was brought down to a toddler? That's usually when that happens. :lol:

    Nope, standard baby - aged on his birthday, via cake, to being a toddler.

    He's a few days into being a toddler.

    Not previously displayed any 360 degree head turning, foul language, climbing walls, levitating, vomiting pea soup, etc.

    I'm going to keep an eye on him though - I have petrol and a match at the ready.

    That is creepy!! Why does it always have to be the toddlers? Is chucky ingrained in this game???

    You should have seen the glitch my daughters game just had. It was super creepy, too. She has no cc and only 2 sets and 1 hairstyle from the store. It was a YA (no cheats used anywhere on him) and his head was floating like normal and nothing but air below, at his waist was this sharp, jutting... things.... going in all directions, then his legs was normal. Ugh! Creepy.

    I've never had a glitch like that in my game. They always creep me out. I had one glitch with a newborn that was a little creepy. It's head started morphing out of it's body, making the neck long and in the wrong direction. I did get pictures of that one.

    Toddler glitches are more scary than any other glitch that the game can produce... >.>

    Makes me wonder what the REAL reason is that toddlers were removed from TS4 - yeh, REMOVED. I mean, what did they create that scared them so much that they had to make up a story that they didn't have time to add them in the first place.

    Maybe, TS4 ones turned into spiders and all sorts - scuttling all over the place - tapping at the inside of monitor screens with their little spider legs - scratching to get out.

    Sleep tight tonight kiddos.

    Yikes! Never had a glitch like that, but wow.....creepy! Kind of surreal that they don't react, too.

    Now I am in the mood for a good horror movie!

    Your p.p.s. made me laugh. I like your reasoning.

    As for the stretch-effect, seems like you've got a glitch in your game. This used to happen all too frequently before they patched the game. Are you patched to the latest and greatest version? If not, you may wish to do so.

    Oh man, that is seriously terrifying.

    Another thing that can cause some really disturbing effects is when you age a Sim up using CAS instead of in-game aging. It's especially worse when it's about two stages up from a toddler or child.

    Example:

    I tried to age her up from a child to a young adult. I was able to fix it by putting her into a pose, but... she was walking around like that for a while. Yeesh. =S

    yeah I get a glitch every time I try to read a bedtime story to a toddler in a crib, even when I tried a vanilla game. I think it came with one of the patches.
