I have the 1.22 patch. My game is at 8.0.152.011017. I don’t do mods- too many problems and the game is plenty fun without them. I don’t even bother with cheats like motherload. I own and have installed all of the EPs and SPs. Windows XP, 2GB RAM (about 50% used), NVIDIA GeForce8600. I always start a new family after installing new EP or SP- don’t want to play my legacy families until the kinks are worked out of each game.
So, here is what is happening:
Everything worked great yesterday- love all the new stuff in Generations. Today, I boot it up and suddenly the two adults (parents) in the house are missing all the items that were in their inventory and I can't use the cell phone. They were able to use the wall phone.
However, before I realized this glitch, the father said yes to going on vacation and leaving the kids alone- and they didn't go. So, now the adults can't travel to China or anywhere. Oi... I know glitches happen in releases- so I am patient, but anyone else having this trouble? Thoughts on how to fix it?
When the two parents aged up from young adult to adult, I regained access to their backpacks and cell phones, but the objects they had (a stroller and book required to complete and Education career opportunity) did not return. They remain able to travel, though they are having great mid-life crises! :D
Just to be sure, I logged out and back in and the adults continue to have access to their backpacks and cell phones and the Charisma book I placed in the father’s inventory is still there. So, apparently aging up solved that problem, though they still can’t travel. On the cell phone (and computer), they “Travel” is grayed out and says, “The adults in the household are already traveling.”
Thanks for the help and this forum discussion!
I'm having the same problem. My bags were empty this morning and I got the opportunity to go on vacation so my kids could throw a party and now they can't go to France, China, or Egypt.
I tried to throw a party when I realized the problem, but it didn't help.
