Problems with loading my Save [SOLVED]
Starler:
In case you aren't familiar, you should use Nraas's Porter to move your family if that's your decision. If you want to stick with vanilla worlds, I suggest checking out Ellacharmed's world files with routing fixes over at MTS. Personally, I use Legacy Island III from the exchange, but that one does have some serious routing issues, meaning I have to reset the world with MasterController every four in-game weeks or so to keep everything working correctly. If I don't reset, I start to get time stutters.
I should note though that I have a very beefy rig and run TS3 off an M.2 SSD, so take anything I have to say with a grain of salt. I should also note that I no longer use AM, only because I was running into an issue a while back that caused my Universities to be empty. I believe this issue has been fixed since I stopped using AM, but I'm presently happy with my Twallan combo.
Neon:
I think I'm going to try out Brooklyn Heights. Looks awesome and well made.
I also got the porter, but - of course, this would have been too easy - it crashes the game when I want to pack my family. I click on pack, the window to select the households opens (I see some of them, but it appears busy loading more), a short time after the game crashes. Maybe there are households the mod doesn't like.
I already wrote at NRAAS about this, but I'm not expecting any help tbh. I don't blame anyone, it's my problem, if I want to play such an old, buggy game. Do you have other ideas transfering my family? What speaks against moving them by phone? Or maybe some manual trick moving with s3pe?
EDIT:
I think I'm through this now. So, as a conclusion: If you have problems with loading your savegame, consider moving to another town. Use the NRAAS Porter or, if that crashes, use the NRAAS traveler. My family is in a new town now. Using the Sims 3 Library system, it wasn't a big deal to bring the old house with furniture along. Here are some links for people, who find this thread in the future:
NRAAS Porter Mod (for packing one or more families and placing them in another neighborhood)
NRAAS Traveler Mod (for traveling to any other neighborhood as if it were a vacation destination; there is a feature to set the vacation neighborhood as your home neighborhood once you've traveled there; see the next link)
Traveler FAQ: Switching Homeworlds (follow the instructions to let your family set their vacation neighborhood as home neighborhood)
Porter Issue: Crash on Pack (a maybe helpful thread about the issue that makes the porter mod crash if you want to pack your family; also further information and tips for switching from a bugged town to a new one)
Thanks to Starler for their help here.
