Application quits with NL director's cut installed
Quinctia:
I've also had some issues...I just installed NL and so I went hogwild with some MATY hacks last night, including ACR. Not the director's cut, I just picked and chose from the directory using the RTFMs, some Maxian weirdness doesn't bother me as much as others.
I even took out my folder with a couple other things (hacked objects, InSim, kitten killer), to check that it was the stuff from here on its own and not a compatibility issue.
I have my main issue (game crash when unpausing play mode) narrowed down to two files--romancemod and Teen - Adult Attraction Fix--two files I downloaded to "go along" with ACR. ACR works on its own. I'm going to go figure out which one caused the crash, edit this post to report which, and then put everything else back in the game in batches, just to make sure they don't cause any additional problems.
My computer absolutely can't run higher than NL and my new laptop isn't scheduled to arrive for a month, so I can be a NL guinea pig for a month!

@Quinctia: are you using ACR3d? I found 3c to have too many problems so I use 3a (I think). Do you find they reset when they try to sleep after auto-woohoo?
I remember having problems with romancemod too but when I put an old version in it seemed fine. Unfortunately I moved all my DLs to check the new woohooltw and dramafix so everything is now dated Sunday. ::) If I dig out my external HD I can have a look at the dates later.
Quinctia:
I used whatever the latest one was in the thread, so I'm assuming it's the one with the later letter in the file name.
Here's the weird thing, I narrowed down the ACR stuff tonight:
ACR alone - fine
ACR + romance mod - fine
ACR + Teen - Adult Attraction fix - was fine for a couple of minutes, then the game crashed
any combination of any hacks where I have both romance mod + Teen - Adult Attraction fix - everyone is standing at attention like an EP installation, everyone's wants spin once play mode is unpaused, the game crashes instantly
Now, I read all the documentation on the ACR stuff, and the attraction fix was not only compatible with the kitten killer, but supposedly an improvement when put along side it. I would think there might be a compatibility issue, but no, this was crashing the game when I had no hacks but it and romancemod. I don't really need it, so I'm not bothered by taking it out, I'm just surprised by how much my game HATED it.
Since I had the wants spinning, I immediately pulled out all of the stuff pertaining to wants. I got sucked into actually playing a bit on my legacy family tonight when the game loaded sanely (since I'd been wanting to play since last night), but sometime tomorrow I'll see how the rest of the stuff plays with that Attraction fix out of there.
And whatever version of ACR I've been using has actually been playing nice with the game so far. The only issue I had with sleep after autowoohoo is that the first person to go relax turns the TV on first, and the TV wakes them up! I'll have to take it out of the bedroom now.
Lana B:
I'll try ACR3d. Maybe I'm lucky and have a special type of borkeness in my game, TJ didn't think he could help me out.

The teen/adult attraction fix is liable to be wonky on some NL installs. There is no reliable way to know which NL installs though, it's luck 'o the draw. ACR & romance mod should be fine.
