Re: Sims 3 Pets: No stray animals

@HelloEllieH  Do you any cc installed? Something may be interfering with the spawners? I am presently playing Appaloosa Plains and I don't get many (seldom) strays but I do get them. I know there is a way to display the spawners (I think by using the cheat mode) and if there are spawners something may be preventing them from working correctly. This is usually a mod or cc. I confess I have never had to do this. If there is something interfering you may want to install a mod called overwatch by nraas may help. There should be no difference between the Origin version and the Steam version of Pets. You may want to check the Steam forums and see if anyone else is having the same issue.

    @roberta591 Thanks for your reply! I haven't previously had any cc installed and only now have additional mods which are supposed to increase the appearance of strays, but they don't seem to be working. The spawners on buydebug are only for minor animals like rodents and fish so I can't do anything there either. :/
    I'll have a look at the overwatch mod and see what happens, thanks for the suggestion!

    I have posted on the Steam forum but haven't had any luck yet.

    @HelloEllieH  Again I seldom get strays but I do get them. The only thing I can find is there are no spawners for large adoptable animals (cat, dog, horse, etc) as these are supposed to be spawned by the game if you have Pets installed. There may be some game error that is preventing the creation. I use nraas overwatch mod that resets many issues.
