This problem is not caused by an hack. It's impossible that an hack chrased the whole pc........Perhaps you have a *bench* of damaged ram and when the pc tries to use that corrupt portion of the ram it restart by self.

Try to put some different items into your downloads, play a long ( make sure your pc use more ram) and than try to save, if your pc shut down again probably the problem is the corrupt ram.

"Plan... Outerwear" option is missing-one answer

Terhen, please do this test: when you see that the "Plan... Outerwear" option is missing, immediately click on a normal Maxis dresser, and check if the option is missing from the Maxis dresser too.

I ask this, because our Coat Hook uses the very same routines as the Maxis dressers, and therefore it should have the same options... I said it should... :P


I had the same problem. I thought it over and proceded to remove "hackes and any modds" I removed the few I could find and found my "Plan... Outerwear" worked fine, on the coat rack and dressers. I added back a hack and/modd (one at a time) played the game to be sure nothing happened and so far, not all are back in downloads but I know now it was one of my modds that was stopping the plan outerwear. :D

I am so sorry for fellow Simmer. I have had same problem but it was not ram for me, it was my proccesor was dieing. she could not handle the load I was putting on her on the internet. I had to do lots of research with other coputer to find out my CPU was overclocked, most are by manufacter but this one was tampered with, it was maxed and this will shorten it's life spand by lots. Too bad for me, the tech that did the work had went out of business and it was still under warrenty....

Could very well be RAm or CPU

Good luck friend

I can't get sims to interact with the coat hook. I have no other hacks (moved the folder out and only had this one in downloads), and play with the Uni and NL EP's. I don't play in 2 story houses, but it hasn't worked in single level/foundation or single level/no foundation.
But heh, I like the idea of this item. Thanks.

I think it is to be used with the EP Seasons. Than you would have all the code for the Sims to interact with Coat Rack. I have Season EP and it is working fine, I also have almost 2g of download for my game to sort through and still works fine. :lovestruc

I too have Celebration, and so far it worked fine... Well, there is a problem, that affects some games, where the sims can't reach the Coat Hook, if it's placed in some orientation.
Exactly, what problem are you experiencing? Please try placing the coat hook on different walls, and see if the problem only appears in some positions, or always.

Oh, thank you very much for this! My computer is rather.. ahem.. slow, so it's always a pain when I need to take my sims all the way to another lot and back just to change their outfit for a single screenshot. This will save a lot of time ^-^

Default Trouble with mod...
I'm having a problem establishing this mod in my game...I have used Q Express, SIMS2 Installer and the old fashioned do it yourself way to get it into my download folder...finally the old fashioned way worked but the mod is not showing up in any folder in my game. I also have the other coat hook and that also is not showing up. I have all the EP's and none of the stuff packs. I've run the accesory for hack conflics and it shows nothing. ANy ideas or opinions? Thanks. I would really really like to have this mod working in my game.

Fixed it...
Whatever it was fixed itself when I dumped out the other files from my download folder and re-installed fresh. I now have both racks and am looking forward to playing them. I see in some other threads that otheres had general download problems during the last 2 days and I did notice that the files I downloaded previous were smaller than the working files I downloaded today. Must be the the rare rar snatcher....

Earlier I had bought outerwear with this coat hook for another family, closed the game and installed whole game again, I COULD plan outerwear. But right after I have bought outerwear to another family, "plan outerwear"-option disappears again.


Problem solved! I had old version of InTeenimator in my game, I tought I deleted all of those files, but obviously I didn't. Now I have done that and this object works fine and I love it!

I love this coat rack, it is GREAT getting clothes for free ^_^ but sometimes I try to have my sims use it, and they keep showing the picture of the hook and saying it's in their way, is there some way or some wall i'm supposed to put it on?

This is a known problem, that affects games that include Nightlife (and possibly other EP). For some unknown reasons, the Coat Hook can't be used by sims if placed on some walls; try placing it on some other wall, with a different orientation, possibly avoiding wall corners.

I am having the same problem, but I only tried to use it in the Goth's house. I also built a wall outside of the house away from everything and tried to use it there. I even deleted the hack and dled it again. I have no EPs & I just reinstalled three days ago. This is the only hack I have. My computer has always handled the game well.

Anyway, great idea. Wish it worked in my game.

I no longer have the green dresser. Where can I download it or something similar?
