AL/Bodyshop won't work!!!

(1/2) > >>

simaddict:
I got AL about a week after it came out, and have only been able to really play it about 3 times because of a problem I've been having. I do a lot of stuff in Bodyshop, and after only running it about 3 times it stopped working. The next time I tried to open it I got a message saying "The Sims 2 Body Shop has stopped working" almost as soon as I clicked on the icon. I tried running the game and nothing happened, not even an error message. After I got rid of my downloads folder and restarting my computer, I tried running them again, and still the same thing happened. I did a full uninstall/reinstall and ran the game once before putting my downloads folder back in. Everything was fine, for about 2 more times of running the game & 3 with bodyshop....so far I've had to uninstall/ reinstall the game at least 3 times, and am now preparing for the 4th as everything has stopped working again. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Having to do this every few days is really beginning to get on my nerves! >:(

My Bodyshop takes about an hour to load, so I rarely use it.   :P  I wait until I know I want to do a bunch of different things to do to make the loooooong wait worthwhile.  However, besides the stupid long time to load up, I havn't had any problems with it before or after installing AL.  I have used it at least 3 times...maybe I should try running it again and see what happens?   :D

Have you tried deleting the cigen.package in you Sims 2 folder? It's a body shop file that will regenerate when you start up body shop.

Emma:
Are you using the bodyshop exe for AL? If so, try running BS in a 'clean' install of the game, no CC. (Rename your 'Sims 2' folder to 'Sims 2 main' and running the game to generate a new install) Seriously, my BS is open and running within 3-5 minutes of clicking the exe and I have some clothing unlockers and a few bits of clothing meshes in there.

I tried that the first time around. Got rid of cigen.package, and the two .cache files, but that, along with restarting the computer did nothing. I eventually had to reinstall.

Tried that the first time too, and when I reinstalled I waited to put my CC back. After about the 3rd-4th time of running BS, I got the message saying it stopped responding. Just did my 4th reinstall last night. I'm getting used to it by now, it's just really irritating to have to do this every few days & have no clue what's wrong.

I don't know if this will help, but I'm running Vista with a 2.0Ghz processor & 1 gig of ram. We're working on updating the computer, but don't have the $$ at this point.
