Crash to desktop

<< < (5/15) > >>

alisoniam:
For anyone having the same issue as me: I completely uninstalled, re-installed the game, patched, installed EA cc, re-downloaded and installed Delphy's monkey, used it to re-install all my mods, and the game now works with all mods.

Thanks for the help. And yes, next time I will try doing all that in order before asking.

Minimizing to Desktop may be caused by AVG 9. If you recently updated, try to turn off Optimized Scanning. AVG is aware of the issue, but they haven't fixed it.


AH HA!!!  I am indeed running AVG 9. and it is a  real bitch to turn off. It keeps turning itself back on. I will try what you suggest. You guys are awesome. TY

Try another .dll file from else where, the one you have may be corrupted, and don't forget you also need the resource.cfg file.

I am running Windows 7 64-bit and am using the same .dll and resource.cfg file I got from Delphy's Monkey Installer Helper way back with the base game, and no problems.  I just did the copy and paste to replicate the same .dll and.cfg files into the same location in the WA folders and like magic, everything worked first time.

My suggestion, uninstall everything, completely, re-install the base game, run Delphy's Monkey Installer, patch, install WA, patch again, then copy the .dll file and .cfg file from the base game (where the installer helper will put them) to the same location in the WA folders.

Also check MTS as Delphy may have updated the installer for WA, I don't know because I haven't checked recently.


Thanks! I didn't think of that (using the monkey installer) since I've always just done the manual install from the framework (yes, with the resource.cfg) linked in the Awesome mod download thread. Maybe after finals I'll get to give it a go :).

Don't forget to delete the cash files (4 of them) in you My Documents-Electric arts-Sims 3 folder.
I've also found the inteen, gainskills, potty train toddlers, leave baby alone, and coworkers speedups mods conflict big time.

I have had this problem every since I first instaled WA. I did a fresh intall of Windows 7  and Sims 3 and WA. on a secondary boot and still had the same CTD at random. So after Awesome Mod was updated for it I installed it and still had random CTD with no other content loaded other than Riverview. But after switching to Awesome Story Mode I have not had a CTD in 2 days. I am not sure if it is sometthing inthe EA story mode or not but i would like to Thank J. M. Pescado for all his hard work on trying to fix EA bugs!!!!!! :)
