Error codes 12 and 13 along with crashing.
Steele:
So far, it seems possible to save without having Error 12s or 13s with WA. But it's hard to tell as of now since there are now 10 files instead of 1 save file for each save.
My first attempt did not result in errors but it crashed to desktop during a save and no save game folder was made.
Saving is now 4x longer since each town has it's own save file.
The game does not save during loading from hood to hood but so far saving from the foreign country accesses the cache of that country during save which somehow bypasses some error 12/13 occurrence. So far this is still in theory and still needs verification.

That's interesting. I'm just curious, but do the new worlds in WA work like the sub-hoods in TS2 - they don't get added until you create them - or are they simply forced on you on the first load?

They are loaded when you visit those hoods. Same as TS2.
The difference is, they don't get created nor forced on the first load. They are already created once the game installs, the world file and cache is fixed in size. You just have to load them. Though the first loading will take a bit since they are updating all the stats of every sim in your hood.
I find that WA borked the charisma skill. It erased my comedian challenge back to zero. Though, fishes, gardening and collectibles seems correctly adjusted.
GnatGoSplat:
I still get E12/E13 if I continuously play the game for >1hr without closing down and reopening it. I've killed off a ton of sims in my neighborhood, and it didn't seem to make any difference. I manage to recover about 3/4 times.
I have this problem even without mods, and the only CC I have is officially sanctioned stuff from the Sims Store.
It seems to me there's just a good old fashioned memory leak in the code, perhaps from poor or inefficient coding.
Yeah, it does seem as if an E12/E13 doesn't really save anything. I can usually tell when I'm going to get one because saving takes an unusually long time, and there is much less disk activity going on than a good save.
Lorea:
Now we have another saving error: Error 16! Yeeee!

Here's the official word regarding Error 16:
We have been made aware of an issue you may encounter while trying to save your game after installing The Sims 3 World Adventures or updating your game. The Sims 3 World Adventures and the Game Update have changed the way your save files are created, which can lead to an error during your gameplay when you save your game. If you encounter an error that says "Error Code 16," please use "Save As" to save your game instead. This will allow you to create a new save file and circumvent this error.
If you are beginning an entirely new game or starting in a new neighborhood, you will NOT encounter this issue.
We are working to address this and will update you as soon as possible.
Thanks,
-Big Guy-
