BV/FT Anxiety

Thanks for your suggestions, guys! I guess, when it comes down to it, that aside from the SecuROM crap it's pretty much like installing any other EPs (only, y'know, more so). I don't have any families I'd weep to lose, so I'm not that fussed about losing my playables. I do lurve my townies I've generated, though, so I'll probably be cloning them as extra insurance. Them and some of the comm lots I've whumped together.

...For some the games error regardless of precautions taken.for others game play is relatively smooth.

I think that's the crux of the issue, for me. I've had a relatively smooth time with previous EP installs (touch wood!). Most of the major borks seem to have passed me by, and I can't help feeling my luck's about to run out. I just have this nightmare vision of vacations that never end, sewing tables with permanently occupied chairs, and Takemizu locals stuck in endless loops of slap-dancing. Not to mention "Don's Backwards House of Hobby Lot-ageTM".

I'll probably take a couple of hours to back things up and organize downloads, then run through the rest of my To-Do checklist before trying the installs tonight. If you guys have any more suggestions, I'd be grateful to hear 'em.

Thanks you!  ;)

I'm running a patched version of BV with Pescado's fixes and clean templates installed, and haven't had that many problems. It slowed my game down a bit, but I didn't have enough ram for the sims anyway, but I think it was worth installing, and most of the issues have been taken care of by now. I've only had a problem with the wave portals getting deleted, but nothing that major. Just make a backup first. As far as FT goes, I am still too nervous to install it, either. I'm intimidated by all the updating of CC I'd have to do.
