So suddenly my kids' sims school bus is suddenly neon red????

«1
Ok I find it strange the school bus now is totally neon red lol the bus comes, no matter if the kid is taking a shower or eating they leave everything behind, and I can't cancell the option of letting them go late to school because they were showering or eating breakfast... Before I could do that. Then they don't don't go to afterschool but they stay outside playing?? weird stuff happening..

The don't even go in field trips

    That's really weird. The only time my kids stay at the school instead of taking the bus home is if they had an afterschool activity and thus, missed the bus.

    Well, I moved the lot to see if that would clear the bus to be neon red lol but still the same everything. The kids wakes up to take a shower to go to school and if they are not timed it right, when this neon bus parks itself in from of the house, the kids' cancels their shower, eating, even peeing lol no matter what and it if forced to get into this neon bus. They will never miss getting in the bus, or cancel it to finish the shower or whatever. I thought the bus supposed get there at 8am and wait, until 9 if the kids go to the bus good and if not, they are late for school but in this case they are forced.

    Can you post any pictures of this?

    Do you have any CC/have you downloaded something off the exchange recently that may have had content that replaced the normal school bus?

    Sorry, it's the only thing I can think of at the moment that might have caused it.

    I don't have the red bus, but I have where I cannot cancel the action to get on. My kids could have went to school early, only to run home to get on the bus. It only happens after a field trip. Look at the school/work panel when they are there. Does it say "Field trip!" even though they are not on one? Mine does that.

    The only red bus that comes to mind in the game is the one that picks you up when you are in the athletic career.Is it that bus?

    Wow that is odd. My lazy kids do everything they want to first, then go to school, i have to force THEM to go. Do you have any expansion packs? I dont have any, but maybe its a glitch with one of those

I clicked the pink photo camera in the middle of the screen in the game, but I don't know how to find it here to paste it.... or can do print a page, but forgot how to print it here lol

    Mine did exactly the same thing!!! They went on one field trip, then after that whenever they went to school it would say they were on a field trip instead of at school. They also couldn't cancel the going to school action.

    And of course, because after school activities are cancelled on days when there are field trips, because they game thought they were on a field trip they couldn't go to the afterschool activities...
    Even before the field trip I was having problems with 1/3 kids not going to afterschool activities, but after it was 3/3. They just couldn't go.

    Haven't had the red bus issue though.

    In game, press c to take a screenshot.

    You can find the pictures either in your launcher, or in a folder. Find that folder by going to my documents>electronic arts>the sims 3>screenshots

    To upload the screenshot onto this site, you will have to go to a site like photobucket, upload the screenshot there and then paste the link here.
