    Oh Dear...

    My problem isn't major but its quite fustrating.
    1. Sim cannot change into work uniforms.
    2. Memory pictures and work picture don not show up.
    3. They want to have a baby but they also fear it.

    Help please? :D

    Try this first

    Open: My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\

    At the bottom there will be up to four files (as opposed to folders) delete them all. TRUST ME it is safe

    The names to delete are:

    Accessory.cache
    cigen.package
    ContentRegistry
    Groups.cache

    Each of them is a file the game uses to coordinate itself. If they are deleted then the game will make new ones when it needs them (eg cigen.package is made and used by Body Shop). A corrupted Groups.cache is the most likely cause of many problems of the sort you describe.

    Well, except for number 3 ... that's just annoying :rolleyes:

    I agree with Mirelly, that is annoying. It's happened to all of us a bunch of times. Their aspirations are a bit mixed up, but if you wait a day or two (make sure they get plenty of sleep - that's my trick) and the fear not to have a baby will go away. Make sure you lock the other want if you want them to have a baby, though, so that it doesn't go away with the other one.

    I don't see any of them things and I searched for them too.
    I guess this calls for a re-install. :(

    Melissa, click on Start, then My Documents, then the folder labeled EA Games, then the folder labeled the Sims 2. You'll get a list of a 20 or more folders plus the files that Mirelly listed. They gotta be there, no matter how many EPs you have. :rolleyes:
