Default Hit Break Point Primitive Object Error?
Hi, I've been having a problem for the past week with the serving platter, but before I get into that, here's some basic info:

I have every EP up to FT installed. The downloads this problem mostly occurs with simultaneously is SUMSE's default replacement dinnerware and fanseelamb's custom drinks which replace "Instant Meal" from the fridge menu. Okay, usually this problem occurs with a visiting townie after one of my resident sims serves fanseelamb's drinks via the "Call to Meal" function. I haven't noticed this problem really occurring with my resident sims, but here's what happens:

A few people on the lot will get a drink from the serving platter, and then a townie will pick up ALL the drinks sans serving platter.

Example Picture:



After this happens, when I point one of my resident sims to "clean up" the serving platter, she cannot pick the object up. I even try to delete it and cannot (I went to the Sims2Wiki page about not being able to delete objects, and the fix didn't work for me; guess it's not that simple.)

Here is the serving platter (SUMSE default replacement):



I did the boolprop testingcheatsenabled true command to generate an object error log, and I have provided a link at the end of this post. You will see that it says something about Hit Break Point Primitive. Is this a serious error?

I really appreciate anyone who takes the time to go through it and help me with a fix because it's really starting to irk me.

As I said, I don't know if it's the drinks, the dinnerware, or the custom townies causing the problem. I have tried removing SUMSE's dinnerware temporarily and didn't notice any immediate problems, but I checked both fanseelamb and SUMSE's threads to see if anyone else was having a similar problem, and I didn't see anything...

In order to better solve your problem, please go through the following as listed below:
  • General - Do the Game Problem FAQ
    You appear to have not gone through our main Game Help:Game Problemwiki FAQ. Please go through and do the steps on this FAQ, including any others that it links to (for example the Game Help:Game Problem-Problem Custom Contentwiki FAQ).

    Usually, in the vast majority of cases, actually going through and doing the steps (doing, not just reading) fixes issues - sometimes you may be asked to remove custom content, or to patch - please rest assured that all of our FAQs have been tested by our staff and volunteers and we wouldn't suggest you do something unless it's been known to fix particular issues.
We do not support third party hacks or addons of any kind. This could be due to some problematic custom content. It's also possible all of your addons are functional but you have hacks which are in conflict (just don't work well together). If you narrow the problem down to specific custom content then you'll need to talk to the creator(s).

On occasion you might be asked to do a long FAQ - please make sure you do all the steps and don't just skip over them. You'll often find that these long FAQs have all the details you need. If nothing in the above FAQs fixes your problem you may post again detailing exactly which you have done and which steps failed.

It would make sense to contact the creators of the relevant hacks you have named - they may find your error log useful.

After more testing, I have discovered that it is NOT SUMSE or fanseelamb's objects causing the problem. Even with Maxis' "Instant Meal," I am still having this problem. I'm not sure which hacks I should remove to test...I guess the food-related ones. *sigh*

I should note this doesn't cause my game to crash at all though, but it is a very big annoyance.

-Do- the FAQ, and post back only after you have. Also when you post back let us know exactly what you did and if any changes happened.
