I have since disabled the cheat..but i still can't install these items. has this happen to anyone else? what did u do to fix it? should I uninstall then reinstall? thanks in advance denise
You might try reinstalling. But also make sure that you are not using something like a noCD fix, since those will disable the buy/build for the game. (That's why the question about whether you bought the game.) I also remember a problem which had to do with lot corruption. You might want to do a forum search as I've seen that somewhere here in the past.
It's possible the "boolprop" might be the problem. If you used it to change the elevation of the ground it can do funky things when you build. I frequently have trouble with placing stairs from a porch to the ground when I use the boolprop constrainFloorElevation cheat.
i know there are occasions when i try t build walls where the pointer wont go where i move the cursor to. it will end up sitting a few blocks away and i have to fiddle with the zoom to get it to move. but i haven't ran into the doors and windows problem myself. and kat (might as well include MJ in this as well), no mean to fight or anything, but use of no cd cracks don't always mean illegal intents. give people a little benefit of the doubt here. i know i used one back when ts2 first came out to get past the annoyingly long (at least on my screen) cd check. for uni and nightlife i simply use images of the first cd's in daemon tools and it creates the same effect (little to nill cd check times). but i still legally own both the base game and the expansion packs. plus it means i can keep my cd's hidden away from my little brother and further preserve them.
While NoCD cheats/cracks/etc have some non-illegal uses, they are still, in the context of the game, considered software piracy issues. And now that they have jackets for the CDs which can stay on permanently (until you want to swap it out for a newer one), there isn't as much excuse about needing to have the crack to keep the CD from becoming scratched. So, while I'm sure that you mean well, VChat, MJ and the official site do not want the use of CD cracks or noCD hacks discussed as they consider them software piracy.
While I don't mind the No-CD Cracks, my problem is that it opens doors of liabilities and could potentially put me in trouble. It may be legal in such instances, however determining who's legal is the biggeset problem, and I rather not deal with the headaches of determining who does or does not have the right to use the No-CD Cracks.
