Oh, man. I can't believe what's happened. I got the travel bug for the first time and it completely broke my Dreamweaver Dynasty. It started with Indigo having a dead husband in China and apparently a grown daughter working at the General Store. And my family tree was busted. It wouldn't show anyone but the active Sim. Just the one single face, except for Indigo, which also showed her dead husband. Well, I could live with this. I wasn't happy about it, but it wasn't a game breaker. So then, I completed the 17 day vacation with huge amounts of progress for Nectarine and Periwinkle, lots of great relics from Indigo's adventures, and tons of gems and metals from Carina's collecting. The vacation was over and they went home. At this point, they poofed out of existance. Back at home, there was only Kenny. His relationship panel didn't show any of the Dreamweaver women. They were just... gone. So, I exited without saving and tried to send them home with the phone instead, but it was too close to midnight and the trip ended on its own. The same thing happened. Just Kenny. Alrighty then. I loaded the save prior to the one right before leaving China and used the phone to send them home. No luck. Still just Kenny back in Sunset Valley.
The only good news is that I save several copies of my game and rotate them out. Like, I have Dreamweaver A, Dreamweaver B, and Dreamweaver C. Both A and B were corrupted beyond repair. So I loaded Dreamweaver C. Christopher is still alive and is 108 days old, so it's about 9 days prior to the files I lost. Argh!!
Did someone here say they thought the travel bug was fixed? No. No, it's not. It's definitely not.
