The Sims 2 Apartment Life, BIG Problem!?

Question

Hey people. I just got the game today and I put it in my computer and now its whacked out. Something ALWAYS goes wrong. Well during the game my mouse starting hopping up and down all over the screen, after turning off the game, its still doing it. Right now. Its never done this before. Im not looking for someone to fix my problem, I just want to know if anybody is having problems after installing? with this or anything else weird?

Answer 1

I've had two problems: The one with the error box, when it deletes one of your sims (pretty common, actually) and the mailbox with the boolprop... It's the normal mailbox, so when Monday comes, I can't pay my rent! What do I do?? Maybe it doesn't have anything to do with boolprop..., but with another patch we've installed!

Answer 2

Hi,

Make sure that you didnt install the game in the same directory as the Sims 2.  They can't be in the same directory.  When you install it, it should automatically install in separate directory by default so if you changed the directory that may be causing your problems.  I hope this helps :-)

Answer 3

Did you check to make sure your computer meets all the system requirements?

Answer 5

I'm having problems too.  not that one though.  First the mailbox for all the apartments is the regular mailbox and not the one for the apartments.  and when you click on it it gives you all the options you have when you use the "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" cheat but i didnt have it on and i tried to turn it off just incase i did have it on and forgot but it kept doing it.  also, my roomate never showed up.  i had two separate sims take in a roomate and they showed up in the corner of the screen but no actual sim appeared on the lot.  I thought they might have been at work.  one of them was but after they were supposed to be off work they still never came.  i dont know what to do about it.
