"Old Car Syndrome" crash FIX!!!!
Kitran:
Sounds like it'd work just like any other voodoo method. I use 3booter. It fixes da voodoo for me every time. ;)

yes, but its a way to do double click an icon and start the game and not opening a directory and delete some files and then run the game.
Strictly speaking, a bat file could do this, and 3booter already performs a cache purge. The thing is, none of these things really WORK.

Absolutely! And that's no rocket science either.

@echo off
CD "%userprofile%\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3"
del "*CACHE.package"
if exist "xcpt*.*" del "xcpt*.*"
cd "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin\"
TS3.exe
exit

But it's just another form of voodoo, like Pescado already said. Kind of like your bathtub overflows and as a solution you knock down an outside wall.

Lendrich:
yes, you're right, all of you, but I do this because 3booter doesn't work for me and i thought there might be people wich had the same problem.
If you don't want to use, don't do it.
Ah, Leticron, I'm working in something more complex than that piece of code
I think, the first beta will be release in a few days
witch:
Leticron - cheers, that collection of commands works great for me. I was using 3Booter, but mainly so I could encompass the fpslimiter; but my video card just doesn't like the limiter, so I've been using the TS3 executable and deleting caches manually. I stopped using 3booter because I found it difficult to make it stop booting the game repeatedly when I thought of something else to try. My game is finally stable enough to usually start first go now, so this batch file is just the ticket.
