Title: Latest Patch version, without Ambitions problems loading and more Post by: playintheleaves on 2010 June 21, 14:40:33 Apologies if I should've posted this elsewhere. I've searched and couldn't seem to find my exact issue. Point me in the right direction if I'm simply lost.
I'm running Sims 3 + WA. No HEL or Ambitions. I recently did a reinstall and therefor updated to the latest patch (whatever the WA equivalent of 1.12 is). I moved all of my CC to the new My Documents location (I am still using Windows XP) and the game seemed to work fine. When the latest Alpha of Awesomemod was released, I celebrated, downloaded, and put it into the packages folder in the new location. The game then wouldn't load. I did a force quit, updated the framework, and tried again. This time it took 45 minutes to load a quarter of the game (got past the initial WA screen fine, but once I selected a saved game to play, took forever). After it loaded the first quarter, it jumped to 100% and into the game. Just scrolling around had a lot of lag. I selected a family to move into a home with the freerealestate feature, the game started to process, and then crashed. I'm not 100% sure the problem is AM, but seeing as how everything works perfectly fine without it, it seems the most likely. Can anyone help me out a little? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

In any case, you might wanna post the specs of your computer. I've just installed the new patch and it did take quite a fair amount of time to load the save for the first time and that's even when my computer is pretty good.

You can start by giving the ass end of those commas some breathing space.

In any case, you might wanna post the specs of your computer. I've just installed the new patch and it did take quite a fair amount of time to load the save for the first time and that's even when my computer is pretty good. I did see that it was mentioned the first load might take forever. However, it is taking 45+ minutes to load every single time. As far as specs go: I am running XP pro, 2GB of RAM, GeForce 9800GT video card with 1 GB of RAM. Does that help?

Perhaps you should try compressing your CC. http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,15129.msg485447.html#msg485447 |
