Renamed .trayitem files cause "unhandled exceptions" in S4TI

[tinyastrogeist]

Basically what the title says. A while back I decided to delete some household folders manually instead of doing it in-game since I didn't feel like booting it up. I only had 2 saves at the time so I figured I could just delete them both and be done with it. However, s4ti still lists them, and I can't tell it to delete them because of unhandled exception errors. How can I get rid of them?

Hello @tinyastrogeist,

Please post the error message so I can look at it.

If you have the Windows version, pressing Ctrl+C will copy the entire message in the clipboard ready to be pasted.

 

By saves do you mean the tray files?
If yes, look in the Tray folder. 

[tinyastrogeist]

By saves I mean the files listed in Documents > EA > Saves folder. I don't recall for sure if I touched the tray folder too. Here's the message:

Current version of S4TI only looks for files in the Tray folder so deleting files from the Saves folder should not affect it.

 

The error seems to caused by a missing .trayitem file which is strange since if the file doesn't exist it should not be loaded at all.

Did you delete those files from S4TI?

Does restarting S4TI still produce the error?

 

One thing that could cause the issue is a not well-formatted file name (e.g. the trayitem file was renamed).
Two creations with the same id but but not of the same kind will also cause the error.

If you don't have to much files in your Tray folder, post a screenshot of the files Inside your Tray folder.

[tinyastrogeist]

I don't think I deleted any tray files since I don't know how to tell what saves they correspond to, but I don't remember for sure whether I did or not. The error happens no matter how many times I restart s4ti. I attached some screenshots of my Tray folder. The households I deleted were from at least a month ago. I'm American, so the dates listed are in MM/DD/YYYY format (e.g. 11/5 is November 5th, not May 11).

It appears that some files where renamed, do they show up in the game?

If they appear in the game, then I'll have to fix S4TI to handle them.

For now you should be able to fix the issue by removing the timestamp (2019_0...) at the end of the filenames.

[tinyastrogeist]

OH--the timestamped ones are old files I had backed up prior to doing a factory reset on my pc. I forgot that Windows timestamped all my previous files. Taking them out completely fixed the problem.  Thank you!

[deevo]

I just checked and even with the timestamp they still show up in the game, so I'll have to update S4TI to handle this. Thanks for reporting!

[deevo]

Uploaded a fix here: https://luniversims.fr/forums/topic/8106-s4ti-19110-mise-à-jour-13-nov-win/

 

It should no longer crash when selecting an item whose filename has been renamed.

But trying to delete them from S4TI may still crash.

Workaround, right-click>Show containing folder or open the Files tab then click the  Tray\  button above the files list, them delete them from File Explorer.
