Do you have TJ's old Visitor Controller installed (the hacked Lady on Red paintings)? If so, they won't work with the most recent few EPs and must be removed, or they'll cause community lots to crash.


Currently, I dont have any visitor controllers in my game.

I've played the game separate with hacks only, then objects only and both combined work sucessfully.  I dont have any specific vistor restrictions besides "no pick pockets" and "no gypsyvisits" hacks. I dont any global OFB related hacks installed and the ones I thought were the culprits were updated from here.


Apologies - I'm not quite following this paragraph.  Does this mean you have tried/tested your game without hacks and custom content?  If not, remove your downloads folder (save it somewhere) and test.

I am just thinking that since your residential and holiday lots are working (or so I understand from your post), and just the community lots are borked, there may be a hack or CC problem.  You may want to try deleting all your hacks and replacing them from the latest director's cut to make sure you do not have any old versions and testing.

If you have done this and the problem is still there, I would agree with jsalemi and it may be worth reloading BV.

No reason to apologies jolrei. To clarify:

Ran the game with nothing in my DL's folder, works fine.

I've tested the game with hacks only to see if they were were working properly, in which they do. All my hacks are updated for Freetime, which is the latest EP I have. Most of hacks are from the directors cut.

Then I tested it with objects/skins/etc only, with results that I have no borked objects.

Questions, is it wise to unistall BV, when I have FT as my latest EP and wont that screw it up moar?  :-\

Also, can someone explain how to copy the list of my hacks, so that I can show what I have. I saw a tutorial about somewhere here.

jolrei:
If you run the game with nothing in your DL folder and it all works fine (including community lots - no crashing), then the problem is NOT the game and you do not need to uninstall or reinstall anything.  This would not solve the problem, since there is no problem there to solve.

The problem may be a conflict between a hack and some cc object, since (if I understand correctly) the problem exists when both hacks and CC are loaded.   Objects that "do things" (have a function that is more than what the Maxis object would do) may conflict with hacks.  I would install hacks and then load cc objects in sections (half at once) to see if you can identify which object is the problem.
