I've also had her vaporizer make a Sim reset and delete itself before.

I have the exact same problem. However, it doesn't piss me off as much as STUCK SIMS 😩 Nice to know i'm not alone

Vaporizer often appears in my errortrap despite my Sims not owning one. And as far as I know inactives don't get one either. Could be related.

[Loveternity]

Did a bit more testing and here's what I've found:

1) I successfully increased the cigarette pack to 20, no issues there.

2) My Sim smoked those 20 without bugging out. Some were chain-smoked, some had breaks in-between.

3) Something's definitely up with the vaporizer. I set the cartridge to lemon, tried to vape and encountered the bug where it flat out "disappears". And that's in quotes because it's not truly gone:

 

Spoiler

Object:

 Name: Helios S150 Vape
 Type: Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.olomaya.CmoCigarette.Vaporizer
 Object id: 0xf5ea00e105a305b0
 Position: (-20000.0000, -20000.0000, -20000.0000)
 Room id: 0
 Level: 0
 Flags: IsUsed
 Lot: Sims3.Gameplay.Core.WorldLot
 Lot Name:
 Lot Address:
 IsValid: True
 World: SunsetValley
 OnVacation: False
 Season: Summer

As you can see it's still in the game, just impossible to access normally. That's an issue because without ErrorTrap it would simply stay there forever, taking up savegame space. I used NRaas MC to add it back to inventory and tried vaping again. The bug happens reliably.

I wonder; does this happen without Ventures? It does seem like a bug with olomaya's mod, but I haven't tested without Ventures.

Wow... Interesting. Idk about olomaya vape, but bug with sims constantly smoking disappears when I delete ventures. My sims could smoke 20+ cigs without problems. What is more strange, when I cleaned retuner tuning a week ago this bug was gone for like a few sim days and then reappeared... Just wtf, complete random. Cleaning retuner again doesn't help lol. Do you have any core mods btw? 

 

What I understood is that smoking mod is kinda broken anyway. It would be awesome if VV had its own cigarettes with all the consequences and features from olomaya's mod! Not only cigars. At the moment these mods have 2 separate nicotine addictions and that's weird. 

 

Thank you for testing!

Hey! I checked olomaya's mod. Vape works fine without ventures and disappears with it. So this bug is confirmed. However, now sims get stuck even with smoking mod only 😁 lmao, my game is cursed.

At least Ventures might not be the cause of the stuck bug then, but I don't have a good guess as to what is causing that for you. Maybe you used to have cmomoney's smoking mod and have a leftover file for it and it's conflicting? Just taking wild guesses really.

Or maybe I'm extremely lucky (or unlucky I guess) and even after dozens of cigarettes I'm just not running into a bug that's there.

I did use it before olomaya's mod but it's long gone. I loaded with empty mods folder except for VV and smoking mod and all the utilities, and sims still got stuck in different saves. I reinstalled the whole game, documents folder and library, tried cleaning all the cache. Idk what else it can be... Guess I'm extremely unlucky lol. Or it's some sort of a rare bug with one of these 2 mods. Which version of olomaya's mod do you have, Tumblr one or mts one? Maybe I should install older version from MTS because as I remember I hadn't this bug then... But I hadn't ventures too though. Kill me pls 😭

Hello Hello!
I'm wondering if anyone is having the same issue I've been having, or if someone can guide me in the correct direction!
Upon installing Vile Ventures and the Arms dealing mod, my two adult sims have become unselectable but I also can no longer reset sims or my town using Nraas master controller! It tries to reset the town for a brief moment before just sending me a script error.

Seems like the kind of thing that might happen if you're missing a required third party mod. Make sure you've got everything these two mods require: Arsil's Custom Trait Manager, Battery's C# Script Utility, CCLoader, Olomaya's Smoking Mod and Twinsimming's sets.

@MonocoDoll, another bug report. When sim craves nicotine, after smoking a cigar the buff doesn't go away. 

[freakbob420]

hi, i just downloaded this mod for the first time today and after adding it my game would not load up, well it would for a few seconds then crash and close out. only fixed after taking this mod out of my folder. hope it gets fixed cuz i was really looking forward to it!

You didn't install all 3rd party mods I think. Reread the installation guide carefully

Unfortunately I did have all of the third party mods with this issue, I've since taken the mod out and had to move to a new harddrive (just because the drive failed)

Oh damn, moving drives is a pain, I feel you. When you get things running again check through dashboard if another mod is conflicting.

I also remember that a previous version of the Arms Dealing mod had that bug with unselectable Sims but that was fixed. If you get a script error when trying to reset town again feel free to share the log, it might have a clue as to what's happening exactly.

I cant even launch the game with this mod it crashes right at the load up screen if I have the drugdealing.package file in I have all the requirements I read the instructions I have other mods that work well but just to be sure I took them all out and then I ran the game with only this mod spent like a 3 hours to find out that its the drugdealing.package file thats 13kb that is crashing the game I took it out and ran it with the rest of the mod to see if the game would launch and it did crazy part about it is arms dealing works just fine does anybody know a fix for this and i am running the game from the fitgirl repack

Sorry for a dumb question, but where do I buy lighters, bongs, vaporizers, RAW paper, etc? I've only figured out how to buy drugs and seeds and that's it

At the grocery store.

hi there, im using this mod and everything was great until i updated my KW - katie's expansion. i think these two mods are conflicting. i've trial and tested my mods folder to see which one crashes it. The crash only happens when im in build/buy mode. for my current gameplay, im playing a wholesome family (lol) so for now. I just wanted to let you know about this. Thank you ❤️

Does the crash happen immediately when you enter build/buy mode? Does it happen when you place a certain object? If it isn't every time you open build/buy, is it happening after you've been playing awhile (1 hour+)? I have both of these mods and haven't had any issues with this mod and Katie's recent update.

hi and yes it happens when i enter build/buy mode. No it's not a certain object. It's mostly after i've been playing a while. i think it's conflicting with some of my other mods. what i've been doing is evicting my sims then putting them in the bin, editing the house bc build/buy works flawlessly without the sims, then putting them back in 😅

[TamraBlue]

None of the items are in the grocery stores in my game nor can any sim smoke joints or use the bong. Have all the needed mods, found an older version and it is still happening. Dashboard only shows the conflict with the smoking mod (which I know isn't an actual conflict) Please someone answer, I can post my mods folder if necessary.

I just had this issue not too long ago; make sure you are using the original version of CCLoader. The updated CCLoaderV2 mod is not compatible with Olomaya's or MonocoDoll's mods. I realized this once I replace V2 with the original mod and all the items finally showed up at the grocery store lol. And for those who are having issues with the vaporizer, I put the Battery script file in overrides(Including CCloader) and that got rid of the issue; or you can just delete Monoco's vape and still use the vape from Olomaya.

I grabbed the original CCloader from MTS and the grocery stuff is back, thank you so much!

That's odd that it works without the sims, but at least that means there is a workaround. It's a bit difficult to say it is these two mods conflicting specifically without multiple players reporting the same behavior. Because, unfortunately, it can sometimes be just some perfect combination of factors specific to your game causing it. I haven't played a particularly long session in a bit, so maybe that is why I haven't seen this. I'll play a bit tomorrow and see if it happens to me. I'll let you know.

I understand that the BDP mod was integrated into this one. However, some of the options in that mod are unavailable in my game. Complementing bulges, sexting, and the "sexpertise" skill. I couldn't even find the skill with Master Controller. Were there parts of the mod left out of Vile Ventures, and if so, can you list them? Will they ever be fully integrated into the mod?
