EDIT: It was actually Fractured Moonlight, the other half of Sun&Moon: http://www.medievalsims.com/forums/...?p=85093#p85093
Some people were having motive drain happening or the motives were dropped to death levels resulting in sim death a lot. This is because of various mods in personal games. Pescado's Macrotastics is definitely a culprit in this, and I assume any mod that will change sickness to be more deadly as well since the Wolfsbane and Nightshade use the sickness bhavs. All in all, the issue is constrained to what mods you are using. So if you see the issue but don't want to alter your mod set up, go with the non-hazardous brand. |

Few Questions though:
- What do you all mean by "queue stompage"?
- @Bulbizarre - Can you PM me some of those toxic herbs as well just in case? I'm all for finding new ways for my sims to die. :D
- What exactly happened to the love letters that made Pescado remove/disable them?
Oh, also:
Slig has fixed the Alfixes, so it doesn't eat loveletters anymore. |
Thanks for sharing! I would've never have found this!
Please, call me 'mmaa', saves time.

The love letters had a glitch that would cause the apartment mailboxes to become unusable. Pescado just nuked the love letters entirely. This isn't too unreasonable, except that EA patched it to not break anymore and Pescado never bothered updating for that.
PM'd the toxic herbs.

Queue stompage - it's when an autonomous action wipes out the entire action queue, rather than being polite and adding itself to the end. For some things you want this (e.g. running out of a burning building, though Sims prefer running towards the fire) but it's usually annoying.

Ah I see! :o
Received it! Thank you! :lovestruc

So, I don't know what the conflict was, but I can say with certainty that Macrotastics had nothing to do with it. I don't know how this misinformation gets started, but I can see that it very easily gets entrenched in the fandom and spread by people who not only don't know what they're talking about, but haven't even tested to make sure it's a thing that actually happens. Possibly the maker of the plants was just not interested in fixing conflicts and picked a mod at random to blame for the problem, or perhaps someone mistakenly reported that Macrotastics was the problem and the maker of the plants never investigated.

RoxEllen1965 would you like to share your own documented stuff from your text file? |
Sorry I took so long to get back to you on this. Very nearly everything I have documentation for is still currently available on the web somewhere. My problem is that a lot of modders don't include readme files with their mods and I have to remember to copy the description from the website into a text file. Pescado includes readme files in many of his mods, but they're not always helpful. Were there any specific mods that you were having trouble finding documentation for?

The only thing that seems to differ is that I used AGS and you didn't, but I'm not sure how that would make any difference. |
AGS lets you play with any combination of expansion packs, doesn't it? Maybe it's an expansion pack's fault.

So if you want to play the fully inhabited version of Quadington University, you'll have to make sure apthack is removed first or the dorms will be even emptier and creepier than intended.

Please pardon the necromancy, but was troubleshooting MATY mods and my current playtesting of some objects (not the toxic plants, but something else entirely).
I noticed in your profiles, that Bon Voyage is also another different point between your games. Could it be that BV code may have an impact on these particular interactions?
Curious about this, since I do have BV and macrotastics and had eventually planned on playing a hood with Sunni's toxic plants.
I would test this, but my knowledge is fairly limited in respect to game coding, and not exactly sure what I should/would be looking for. :D
