carpool argh

Archived from groups: alt.games.the-sims (More info?)

Hi, my girlfriend and I were playing Sims 1 (uhm, the version we got,
seems to be called The Sims, Deluxe Edition).
We have this family in a house, the guy has a job, but the car just
doesn't want to turn up.

After some googling, we found out about some carpool port bug, but all
links to patches supposed to fix this problem appear to be dead.

Could someone in here please please help us? :-)
