@SoulGal7 @EuphorialQueen lol Yep, that's pretty much exactly how it went down! Silly Sims... *rolls eyes* Thanks for checking on any rules update needed for DU. I don't have the pack, yet, but it'll be nice for those who do and when I get it myself, someday...
I had a bit of a frustrating glitch last night. I'd been playing for over 4 hrs., saved several times and then when I tried to save after my Sim finally completed her first of four aspirations needed, I got some kind of error code and it failed to save. Never, ever had that happen before. I tried save, save as and even tried to do a 'save and go to manage worlds'.
I thought that last part had worked, but nope. When I logged back into the game, the only save I had left was right before I started playing at the beginning of the night. All other saves I'd done through the night had disappeared. All that playing, just gone, wiped out. :(
Almost made me want to delete the challenge in a fit of frustration and rage. But I didn't. I did a search on the forums and found out others have had this problem for years and it almost always is a result of a relationship between Sims that got corrupted somehow.
It seems true in my case since my Sim had been flirting with one of the inmates, but he was mean to her for seemingly no reason (probably the erratic trait), so I had her 'ask to be just friends' and start flirting with a different inmate. I guess the game didn't like that.
She had just the first inmate as a potential love interest before I played and lost everything. So I just didn't have her dump him and go for the other guy and it's saving just fine now. Well, I also did a repair too, so that it could've been why it's fixed I suppose. *shrugs*
Anyway, this has certainly been an interesting and drama filled round. Makes me wonder what's going to happen next! o.O lol
EDIT: o.O Just re-read the new rules. Um... I think I need to start over. I totally forgot the rules had been updated. I was going by the old ones and broke a lot of the new ones for hard mode. For instance, no negative lot traits, started with five skill objects, turned off heat affects, bought lifetime rewards, etc. Opps! No worries though, I think this save file is corrupted anyway. I got that save error again last night. *sigh*
