deconstructing the 1am freeze

Unless the game actually FREEZES and locks up completely, I'm not going to see anything, because my computer is crazy-awesome.

Someone should donate a non-awesome system to you for testing purposes, though I somehow doubt you would condescend yourself to use it.
kuronue:
What would it tell him?That less resource intensive is better? Pretty sure he knows that. The exact threshold is going to vary significantly by system. If he cared enough, he's probably very capable of artificially limiting his system to arbitrary settings and seeing how well it performs to offer a revised "minimum spec", but hell, we're capable of compiling that ourselves just by comparing performance.
J. M. Pescado:
The problem with this approach is that in order to get anything DONE in reasonable time, I need an extremely fast-loading system, because if it takes 30 minutes to restart the game after a 5-second test run, NOTHING WILL EVER GET DONE.
Kitbug:
Hm. Thanks for the help guys. Motoki, yeah, I have the latest. I double-checked and redownloaded AM. I don't think it's worth it to upload the save, seeing as how I got this and I'm pretty sure it means my neighborhood is screwed.
I posted it in the FSE thread, but no response, and since it's related to my problem I thought I'd put it here. So, assuming this does mean my neighborhood is screwed, is it reasonable to guess that the game might work if I just start a new neighborhood and don't uninstall and reinstall the entire game?
