Okay, so long story short, my friend's "The Sims Pet Stories" game has been crazy for the last few months or so, and I told her I thought I was able to fix it.
Basically, the problem is that the game has glitched so that every Sim/pet isn't what they're meant to be but an adult male. It's weird, and probably easier to explain with pictures.
Basically, every Sim is now an adult male, has absolutely no family ties, no interests, no personality points and a new randomised aspiration. Whatever's happened, it doesn't affect new Sims however, just the ones that have already glitched.
My friend's pretty freaked out by the whole thing and kinda upset because she's become rather attached to her Sims.
I thought I would be able to fix it using SimPE, but although it registers that the game is installed on my computer, it doesn't like to let me edit the files like I can for the The Sims files. I thought I'd be able to set it up to let me access the neighbourhoods from Pet Stories, but I can't.
Then, I thought that there was a chance that the Sim Blender might be able to sort out at least the personalities and family ties (this was before I realised that they hadn't just changed age but gender too...) but it doesn't install into Pet Stories.
Has anything like this ever happened to anyone else? Or does anyone have any ideas about how I can sort it?
(if not, I hope you all liked the kinda lulzy pets in the pictures)
