This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, University Life
Default Phone Bug
Hello fellas! At first, I'm playing Sims 3 with only Ambitions, Late, University and Generations..so...no ITF!
So, I was playing in the university world and my sim got a phone call. When I tried to answer, he automatically rejected the call. No popup, notifications..nothing! Just an animation of an angry/disgusted sim!

Does anyone knows what I can do? I've done some research and found out a similar bug with ITF (but I don't have this expansion).
Also, anyone can tell me if NRaas mod story progession can lag the game?

Sounds like your Sim got a prank call. I believe that is a 'feature' that came with Generations. If not Gen, one of the other EPs.

I use NRaas Story Progression and it doesn't lag in my games at all (wouldn't play without it).

For some SP can cause lag. In my game it doesn't lag at all. There's no harm testing it and see how it works.

@LeeAlee Though I'm not getting too much opportunities, I guess that you are right (I'm still receveing invites for parties, chat etc). Thank God for your help. I was unaware about this Generations stuff! Much obliged, mate!

@varpunen @barbarat Okay, I'll have a look. Thanks!

@Kenboy - You're most welcome. A few of my favorite screenshots are of my sims getting those prank calls. The ones where they stick a finger in one ear and blah-blah-blah at the prank caller. LOL!

ETA: nikel23 has a set of mods hosted here that fix and increase the chance of receiving opportunities by phone. The fix is for players who have 'Into the Future' installed and have a reduced number of opportunities offered (the fix fixes that issue). The other increases the chance of receiving an opportunity by phone. Here's the link in case you're interested:
