Invasion of clocks!Help!!

[ozma83]

Hello!!
I am writing because recently I have been having a very annoying problem while playing the Sims 2!
When I start playing any lot, after a few moments the blue clock (the biological clock) appears on the floor and on the left 2 messages (like the ones telling you about birthdays etc) come up saying this:
"Namelocal:0 has invited namelocal:1 on a date downtown" and "Checks - Rel Dir - 0
Abs Dir - Local: 1
Distance - Local:2 "
These messages keep showing up no matter how many times I close them and the floor gets full of clocks!!

I have quite a few hacks installed but they have never given me problems, this only started a few days ago, I deleted the last hack installed (Christianlov nanny controller) but nothing changed!!

HELP!! What can I do??

If nothing happened to your game itself (new SP/EP), computer problems or so, yes I
would say this is coming from a hack (90% sure)! As I had the same kind of problem
once with a hack, witch also did not appear immediately.

My advice would be :

Remove all the hacks you have from your game (put the folders somewhere
else on your computer), restart your computer,

Make a copy (backup of your download folders- without the hacks - in case
you would have to reinstal your game, which I hope not..)

Try to play again once the hacks are removed from your game and see if the
things go better. If yes, then the problem is coming from a hack, if not, then
it is coming from the game itself and I suggest you call EA hotline for help.

If you want to use hacks in your game - though many of them can be easily
replaced by typing cheats, but I agree not ALL of them - NEVER NEVER install
them directly in your game.

I warmly suggest you to download Numenor Any game starter at
http://www.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=250555. You will use the Mini
game Numenor created for testing stuff to test on your own the new hacks
you downloaded. I don't want to be mean but we should never forget that
most of the hacks are made by non professional people and so they can
generate very important problems - even without wanting to !

After you have tested a hack for a few day in Any Game Starter, if nothing
bad happen, then you can install it in your game.

I hope this will help.

Good luck !
