"Old Car Syndrome" crash FIX!!!!
Lendrich:
Hi guys.
As the title says I'm working in a fix for this crash:
But, I need your help.
I need to know the installation path of the game, but in the different languages in which the game is.
I have:
-English Path: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3
-Spanish Path: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Los Sims 3
I need to know exactly this: Xxx Sims 3
The fix works perfectly to me in those two languages. Please post here the installation path of the other languages.
I will release a beta soon
Sorry for my bad english and thank you.
P.D: I will need "Betatesters"
J. M. Pescado:
The installation path of the game cannot be assumed, because not everyone even installs to the default locations. What exactly did you do that allegedly fixes it, keeping in mind that the problem is essentially voodoo and the appearance of fixing it is not equivalent to fixing it, unless you actually hacked something in the executable?
Kiirkas:
I went with C:\The Sims 3, as an example of Pescado's comment.
My voodoo: delete all cache files in Documents\Electronics Arts\The Sims 3 folder, empty recycle bin, defrag, start game. The defrag seems to be the key on my system for some reason, and now the game starts every time. Other players' mileage may vary.
A pox on EA for not fixing their own shit!
Lendrich:
yes, but I'm requesting that for other reason, I'm going to use a method that asks the user which is his installation path or if its the default.
This fix doesn't modify any original file
J. M. Pescado:
Then how or why does it work? This is a technical forum. Details are required, otherwise you are simply posting nonsense.
