Supreme Commander
coconnor:
I have been playing with AwesomeMod installed for some time now and really like it. In the past couple of days, I decided to enable the Supreme Commander function, and I love it for the ability to track my Sims. I am playing a legacy style family which has now branched off into five separate households. I had been experiencing the missing school/work syndrome, and enabling Supreme Commander did indeed help with that issue since I was able to see where they were at all times.
However, enabling this option also caused some Error 12 save failures, extremely long save times when successful; and now I find that when I am playing I will get stuck often (inability to switch from the active Sim, or perform any action at all, and this has caused me to have to shut down the game via Task Manager). I really find Supreme Commander valuable in tracking all of the Sims involved in this family, but obviously it is maddening to have to quit the game in this manner, thereby losing all play leading up to it.
Has anyone else been experiencing this issue? Any help you can give would be most appreciated.
Thanks to Pescado for all the work and effort he is putting into this, to make the game more enjoyable for all of us. Thanks to all of you who are "more awesome than me" ... I've been lurking and learning.

I have never encountered the error-12 failures as linked to the current version of Supreme Commander, and I play a rather loaded neighborhood, so not a clue. Given that I am tracking the entire neighborhood this way, of maybe two dozen sims, it's hard to say these two are really related issues. Are you certain that you are using the latest version?
coconnor:
I do have the most recent update of AwesomeMod installed. I keep updating it as I see you post them. Any guidance on the other issues?
Thanks for your response!
Just went to check on the time of the currently installed version. Updated twice yesterday - last one says 6:25 pm (this may be my time - EST). I'm in the U.S.

Check the thread below this one in regard to save game issues.
Error 12 is completely random and you get it without AM or SupComm and has been reported since the game was leaked, before AM was around. For me it usually starts when the save games start getting bigger, such as having a large household with lots of objects. Once you start getting it, it seems to keep showing up unfortunately.

Thanks, Anach! I just thought it might be related to having enabled Supreme Commander, since the long save times and freezing (forcing me to quit the game via Task Manager) only started when I enabled that option. And I really hope it can be resolved so that I can continue to use it. The legacy family home is large and does have a lot of content. Also, one of the daughters married Mortimer Goth and so that house is also (slightly redone) active in the game.
