Troubles with hottub and its GUIDs

[whiteshark80]

Hello!
I saw a similar thread around but as there are no replies I decided to add my own thread.
I am trying to create a hottub ( that one with steps) but its not working properly when I put my own GUIDs. It´s working pretty perfect when I am using Maxis hottub´s GUIDs, but when I put my own GUIDs, only one sim is allowed to enter the hottub per time. Sometimes, none sims are allowed to enter, and the hottub command ( the icon) disappears from the sims head.
What am I doing wrong?
I used meshtool to retain the door repair opening animation and it was working perfectly with Maxis GUIDs.
Please, help me!

Thanks in advance,
Andres aka WhiteShark

I've never cloned a hot tub, so this is just a guess. Perhaps there is a reference to it's own Guide in the BHAV somewhere. In which case you need to update that as it would still be pointing to the Maxis GUID

Thanks for your reply, Alex!
Anyway I was searching at BHAV and there are lots of GUID combinations. I really don't know what to do.
I've got a lot of different GUIDs to its same hottub and all of them are having the same problem: none sims or only one sim is allowed to enter the hottub per time. And the hottub command ( the icon) disappears from the sims head.

I must add that now I just cloned a maxis hottub (with steps) and changed its GUID to new ones. I didn´t change its shape or material, I really only changed its 10 GUIDs. And the problem still persists :(

What am I doing wrong?
Any more tips?

TIA
Andres

I remember when I made foods that you had to put the GUID in reverse in a certain BHAV...I doubt this will be the same with the hottub,so,why not, clone another hottub, then look write down all GUIDs (from the maxis 1) and then look at the BHAVs and see if you can see the GUID,in reverse?

Hello!
Thank you for your reply!
I´ve never changed anything on BHAV before but I´ve tried that tut link you gave me, Echo! (Thanks!)
Unfortunatelly, I had no luck! There are some "Test Object Type"s to change and I did it but the problem persists :(
Is there another way to fix it?

Thanks in advance,
Andres

I'm afraid I don't have much useful to add to this problem, except to reassure you that its quite possible just to clone a hottub and treat it like a normal object.

One thing I can think of which might be a potential issue though is EP compatibility - as in are you creating a hottub with just the base game in your file-table, but EP's installed in your game? The tubs were updated with Nightlife and I think can throw little wobblies with a base game tub in a Nightlife game? Just a thought.
