This user has the following games installed:

Sims 2, University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, Free Time, Apartment Life
Default Error: Slot Number Out Of Range
I have played two families and only with the second family I get a lot of errors.
Mostly Error: Slot Number Out Of Range.
When I press reset, it's ok again, but it bugs me that the sims resets each time. Cancel doesn't work.
I play the Genderswapped neighbourhood. Does it have to do with that?
I added a print screen.

This is the wiki page on object errors: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title...er_out_of_range

You might find some useful information there.

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.
I'm here on tumblr and my site, tflc

Not really.
It says this: 108. Slot number out of range
This means that there is no entry in the SLOT of the value requested in that node
But I have no idea what that means.
I can click on the word SLOT but that page is even more Chinese. I have read the introduction and all but I have still no idea how to solve these errors.
I am sorry. I am totally new at such errors. It's been years since I played the game this much.

I just started having this same problem. It has to do w/twins who just grew into children in one of my families. The one twin keeps getting the "Attribute number out of range" and when I delete her, save, go out the the hood view and back again, she is a child, but the game is reading her as a toddler. So far it has happened twice tonight.

My sim is Mallory landgraab. The woman version of Malcolm Landgraab.
The only thing I did was buying a custom car.
She didnt grow up or anything.
It happens in her house and Club Dante.

You should post the error log (under a spoiler!). It will have a lot more information that the screenshot you added has. Taking a guess without seeing it, it could have to do with the custom car you bought - especially if the error didn't happen before you bought it.

I haven't played the lot before I bought the car. It was the first thing I did. But it can explain why it happened with Landgraab. The other family I played is Broke. They're to broke to buy a car.
I'll sell the car and see what happens
I'll also add the error log asap..

Ok, I read the instructions on Numenor's thread. He's talking about the "jump bug," but mine is a bugged sim where s he won't grow up. Does Numenor still come around?

Others can help you too.
Maybe it's best to start a new help thread and add you error logs so people can help you better.

Yes, Sonshine should start a new thread because their error is different, and it will have a completely different cause (although it's probably still a CC issue).

I deleted everything from the logs folder and then I started to play Landgraab again and I thought I'd get the error right away.
But I don't get the error anymore.
Maybe deleting the content of the logs folder helped.
That's the only thing I can think of.

No, that will have no effect on the problem.

The error happened when I hovered the dining table. I replaced it and also the chairs.
Maybe that's the reason why the error doesn't happen anymore.

It's a possibility seeing that you replaced them and haven't gotten the error again. (Says the MLC now that she knows that you hadn't played the lot before the car was bought.) BUT we'll never know for sure since you didn't post the error log?

Sorry, I totaly forgot when I noticed I didn't get the error anymore.
There are many error logs and seem to be all different.
Can I add them in a zipfile or do I need to put them all (42) under a spoiler?

Edit: Nevermind
I just got the same error but with a different sim I just started to play.
Here's the log:


It's a different dining table than the one there was in the other lot of Landgraab.

It's definitely a problem with the tables - the error is being caused by the table's slots not matching up with the code the game uses to check whether or not the sim can sit at the end of the table. That code is semiglobal, so you probably have either a mod which overrides that code; or a CC table where the creator has improperly imported the semi-global to change it for their table, but has wound up accidentally affecting all tables in the game instead.

Now you mention that I have a mod sitting on the table and I can't remember using it before (it's been years since I played). Although it wasn't in my testing folder anymore.
It was made by Smonaff in 2007. Maybe it's not compatible with AL.
I'm going to remove the mod and see what happens.
Thanks a lot for helping me figuring this out.

Edit:
Thank you so much.
I don't get the error anymore. And this explained why it was solved on the other lot when I bought another table on which the mod didn't aplly.
Also it gave me a bit of logic insight in how to read an error. Next time I can look for it myself a bit more.
