game stuck loading lots, but only sometimes...?

(1/3) > >>

VirtualAlex:
my game is having a problem entering lots - it just gets stuck on the loading screen - but only sometimes, and it isnt predictable when it's going to happen. >:(

I have just installed BV and FT (never played it with just BV) and its happened since then. i thought it was a hack problem, but i have tested the game without them, and it still sometimes happens and sometimes not. sometimes, the PIP window pops up over the loading screen to show the family, but i cant effectively click it.  ???

i have also tried removing CC, then adding it back in bit by bit, but still get the problem, sometimes. the only time i dont get the problem is with no CC at all, so obviously (?) it's a CC thing. although admittedly very unawesome in computer skills, i think i have run through my downloads fairly rigourously. i spent half a day on it anyway. i cant possibly play without CC.

i havent added any new hacks since BV and FT, have updated all (I think) the hacks.

it just seems to be a random error? or maybe a conflict with some CC - how do i check that??

also, possibly unrelated, when i start the game up, i sometimes get a message about emulation software being detected, and the game wont start. i dont have any emulation software. this isnt a securom thingy is it?

some awesome help would be awesome. thanks.  :)

Charamei:
1. Wrong forum.
2. Hack conflict detection utility is your friend. Get it [rl=http://www.simwardrobe.com/]here[/url].
3. Have you tried the magic wand?
4. Yes, it probably is a SecuRom issue.

VirtualAlex:
magic wand??

Charamei:
In the hacks directory.

VirtualAlex:
ok, i got it - what does the magic wand do? i can never understand pescado's explanations...
i ran the hack conflict program, most of the conflicts were with inteen, but i have always had those hacks in without a problem.

also,i dont think i do have securom bc i followed li'lbrudder's reply no 32 in the securom thread, and there was no securom when i ran regedit. so i guess i dont have it??? maybe bc i never played BV by itself, only after i had added FT?
