Hi everyone! I play The Sims 2 and use SimPE in German. I have loaded my custom memories and custom foods into SimPE via the File Table so that I can edit related memories. I translated some of the strings myself for immersion. The installation path for the game is disc-based (not Ultimate or Legacy Collection), my latest expansion pack is Mansion and Garden Stuff, and my version of SimPE is 0.75.69.21.

There's this very odd issue where the custom memories all have the same name and it seems randomly chosen from the loaded content. For a while, all custom memories bore the name "War Leihmutter" ("was a surrogate mother", which I translated from kestrellyn's mod). I recently renamed some folders and had to reload them, and now all custom memories bear the name "Brokkolisuppe mit Cheddar" ("broccoli soup with cheddar") from one of my custom foods. They also adopted the new alphabetical order: they were previously listed with the W memories, but are now listed with the B memories.

The memories can still be distinguished by their tags, for example "Brokkolisuppe mit Cheddar {Memory - Surrogate - Surrogate - Kept Baby}", and they appear with the correct name in game, but is there a way I can get the actual labels to show up in the Neighbourhood Memory (NGBH) in Plugin View? It's a little weird having to search for broccoli soup whenever I want to add any custom memory. I translated the strings separately in each individual memory and food. It's worth noting that InTeenimater, which already comes with German translations, is also affected by this. Even the Biological Clock is "Brokkolisuppe mit Cheddar" and was previously "War Leihmutter" in Sims' inventories in NGBH, like the custom memories. (I'm not interested in alternatives to InTeenimater. This is not the scope of my question.) I'm at a loss as to what could cause this.

I apologise if this was already addressed. I searched the forum to see if there's a thread about this, but didn't find anything. Thank you all in advance.

I'm guessing it's probably an issue with SimPE, rather than any issue with the memories or the translations. Most people don't add custom objects to the file table, I think it's really only common to do that with Smarter EP Check. So the lookup for object names that aren't in the install files might just be broken. It sounds like it's probably using the name of either the first one that was loaded or the last one, if renaming things changed which it was.
