Bathroom Controller: In Soviet Russia, Bathroom Uses You!
J. M. Pescado:
Every time? It just crashes? Next time you're on the chat, I'll give you some test builds to run.

Yea, I've been having this happen too. I'll go into a lot, and within minutes of any activity starting on the lot (I usually save when everyone is asleep), the game crashes to the desktop.
At first I thought it was because my good video card died on Sunday, and I replaced it with an older, flakey card so I could send it in for warranty repair. Game started crashing right after, but now that I think about it, I also downloaded a bunch of updates from here and installed them first. Got a new video card today (different brand) -- same problem. So I tried it on my laptop version, with an exact duplicate of my desktop's Downloads folder, and sure enough, it crashed minutes after the family woke up, and right after the first family member came out of the shower. Between the two, it looks like it might be happening sometime around when it issues the command to kick the sim out of the bathroom.
The weird thing is that the AppErrors log on both machines is full of audio errors, complaining about a duplicate resource. Here's a sample:
ERROR TSAudio: Duplicate resource instance id found ff7bc078 with existing 0b9eb87e:2da1f2e7:ff7bc078
.\source\TSAudioResourceManager.cpp(1073)
And I have noticed that the audio goes into a repeating loop just before the crash.
I'll down load and try out the new version to see if this goes away.
Edit (about 15 minutes later): nope, this new version has the same problem; soon as a sim is kicked out of the bathroom, the audio goes into a loop, and then the game crashes.
Edit #2 (another 15 minutes): dropped back to the version in the latest moreawesomethanyou.zip (dated 1/31), and the problem goes away. So something changed between then and now.

I dropped back to the 3/4/06 version and the problems have ceased. The 3/6/06, 3/7/06, and this newest all cause the crash for me.

There's a new version in the nl/hacks directory dated late yesterday; probably the fix?
J. M. Pescado:
I split the versions for now. The NL version is now a seperate object from the OFB version, which has been dumped to its own directory.
