Can't open fridge Twice in my Sims2 for Mac game, the refrigerator seems to become a deadzone. Sims go to it to eat or get food to cook, stare at the fridge, and then go do something else. I tried to delete the refrigerator and it says I cannot because the refrigerator is in use. I hate to make my Sim family move after fixing up the whole house. This is the basic Sims2 program..no extensions. Running on iMac with OS X (10.4.11) with ample memory and 2.1 ghz processor. Thanks for help. Mara P.S. A similar thing happened with a bed in another house. I finally moved the family out to another home. Frustrating.
are these objects that come with the game or downloads... there are some downloads that have lost the actions when they are recolored.....?
Yes, original game Yes, the refrigerator that stops working ("item is in use" even when it is not) is part of the original Sims2 game. Not a download or custom object. Thanks for any help. Mara
Yes these glitches are annoying and happen sometimes when an action get cancelled but the invisible route-marker fails to time out and self delete. The only way to fix this is to delete the affected item with the moveobject on cheat. Press [Ctrl]+[SHIFT]+[C] all the same time and then type in: moveobjects on You will then be able to delete the affected object. Sometimes the invisible markers remain and can block access to a square. If this causes a problem should download the stuck objects remover (stuckobjremover.zip). Unzip that into your Downloads directory. In the game it is an objects costing $1 found in the miscellaneous >> miscellaneous part of the catalog. (It's a black box with the word Nuke on it. Place it on the block square and everything on that square will be de deleted. So it's a good idea to to remove an expensive artwork if the square is against a wall
