UPDATE 1: I found one more object that causes View Many errors, and that is the Bon Voyage tree log (which you can find in Wallowa Park, Three Lakes). This update fixes that error.
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION
Freetime introduced a new interaction called View Many that sims can perform on paintings and sculptures. When a sim initiates this interaction, other sims can join and start viewing art together. This is perfect for art galleries or similar lots, and really adds to the immersion. There is a huge problem with this interaction, though. The way it works is that when a sim initiates this interaction, they will view the object and then the game will pick another, eligible object and make the sim view it next. The next object needs to be enabled for the View Many interaction (its TTAB needs to have the Interaction - Appreciate BHAV (Painting Global) defined at Index 6) in order for the sim to view the object. If the object does not have that interaction defined in its TTAB, then the game will throw an error and reset the sim. The error will be "Reference to tree table entry that does not exist". There are certain objects in the game which are considered by the game to be paintings or sculptures that do not have the View Many interaction defined. This mod makes it so that if the game picks one of these objects, then the game will now skip that object and find another object.
There is a very large number of objects in the Sims 2, and it is impossible for me to go through all of them to check if they are properly enabled for the View Many interaction. This means that if you ever come across this error while playing with this mod, you should attach the error log in the comments section, so that I can fix those objects, too.
You need the latest version of 7zip or WinRAR to get this mod.
Requirements: Freetime.
