Bon Voyage inconsistently refusing to load!
lemonfresh:
I've had this happen a number of times as well. It's pretty random for me though and spans all Eps. The solution seems to be equally random. Sometimes it's groups.cache, sometimes I've had to go to the cd and use the exe, defrag, move the Sims 2 folder and start a new game... never the same thing twice in a row. CC, hacks or lack of said didn't seem to matter a bit.

Something worth noting, I think:
Since I started using a no CD .exe after killing SecuROM I haven't had this issue once. If you aren't opposed to no CD cracks, that is what I'd suggest.
This would seem to support the theory blaming SecuROM for failing to load.
Yes, that's what I thought it must be. EAxis can deny deny deny all they want, but after a while enough people are going to come forward with issues like this and they'll have to do something or risk losing (all of) their customers.

It could be the cars. EAxis has published that it has redone the cars and to redownload.
Gwill:
I had problems while loading completely clean games (with no sims 2 folder in my documents at all), so it can't have been the cars then.
I'm not convinced it was just SecuROM either; I have stripped it completely from my computer but still get the occational no-load. With cracked EXE, CD image and Y.A.S.U it loaded every time, but the cracked exe made the game crash too often. With just the image and Y.A.S.U it loads fine at least 75% of the time.
I'm still baffled, but I can live with it for now.

You just might've had a bad .exe. You could try one from a different site, it might work better.
