THANKS THIS IS GREAT

I recently re-installed AM and I'm having a problem with the sound. Every now and then, the game's sound will start re-looping one sound over and over for several game hours. After a while, the looping will stop and the game will "vomit*" out hours worth of sounds all at once in a matter of seconds. I will hear tons of clicks, phones ringing, cars driving, laughter, snoring all glopped together and then the sound will go back to normal for a few game hours, only to get stuck on some other sound loop. Usually, the sound is some background noise that would normally go unnoticed, like general outdoor sounds. Sometimes it will get stuck on the washing machine or a car engine. Once it got stuck on a cell phone ringing.   

I removed all of my packages except AM, and the sound glitches continued. When I took out AM, it went away.

THANKS THIS IS GREAT

Hello.

I have that same kind of issue. Awesomemod opens a window tells me there's a non-core issue with another mod which is not answering the way it should (translated from French by memory, sorry if it's not correct). But, thing is, I tested the game with ONLY the Awesomemod and NO OTHER package - as I had just reinstalled my games -  and it says just the same...

If I click "Quit" then it quits after the loading, and if I click "Ignore", it works fine until I try to enter the CAS. When I do, the game crashes.

(I have all extensions up to Master Suite Stuff)
If you're getting that particular message, it means your SimIFace file does not match the version AwesomeMod expects. This means one of 3 things:
1. You are using someone else's. Very few people modify that file. But you have no other packages.
2. You have the wrong version of either AwesomeMod or the game. Patch your game, update AwesomeMod.
3. Your files are corrupt.

I would think so if it was just mine. I have a little bit of CC. The only thing my girlfriend has is,

awesome.package
aweconf.package.

So whats to conflict? We both have every Sims3 expansion and Stuff pack game.

You need to make sure you are patched to 1.29. If you install Master Suite Stuff without patching your patch level is something like 1.28. I can't remember the exact number, but it's not 1.29. So, check your patch level. Also, my sims skill just fine with AM installed.

It's not even just that: the game has what I think of as 'hidden' patch levels - i.e. there are patches that need to be applied to individual EP's. If you install everything in one go you may miss one of these patches and I advise checking your game with the patching tool available from MTS.

Really? Is whatever was fixed in those patches now fixed elsewhere?

Did you enable the "ScaleSkillDifficultyToAging" in the config, or maybe increased the "RegularSkillingDifficulty" multiplier?  Either of these would increase the time it takes to skill.  You never said if the skill bar showed above their head but didn't move, or if it didn't appear at all.

Your problem has nothing to do with AM. If you play the game long enough after having removed AM, you'll find that the freezing and sound issues will begin again. I started having the sound and freezing issues after the 1.29 patch was installed into my game. After reinstalling the game and avoiding 1.29, I have those issues no longer. Unfortunately, that means I can also no longer have AM in my game, but at least I can play without freezing and crashing again.

It shows the bars, they just don't gain not even slowly. Ill do another config and see it is the problem. If it is enabled by default then that is probably the problem.

Duh. You're suffering from an old know bug caused by bicycles. AM makes it a bit more frequent because of the needed processing and it's easy to erroneously blame AM for that sound glitch.

Okay, stop advising people not to patch.  This is stupid, pointless, and counter-productive advice.  Unless you plan to never install another EP, SP, or store object in your game, you WILL end up patching.  I'm sorry you apparently can't get your game to work with the patch, but troubleshooting fail =/= faulty patch.

This isn't even entirely correct. You can completely remove this sound bug from your game with Overwatch because it turns off the eight bajillion TVs and Stereos that sims keep on all the time. Frequently using AM's fixall helps as well, but you have to remember to do it; Overwatch is automated. I recommend TFM's STFU mods because the game has too many annoying sounds, but you can clean up sound bugs without them.

Overwatch allows you to edit its automated commands so that you can add, for instance, "fixall."

AwesomeMod already includes its own anti-TV-spam, although slightly less zealous than Twallan's.

I have to thank you Madame Mim, I came here to make a post about an issue I was having with AwesomeMod core error and no world edit tools, but I saw your post and decided to do that first, and it fixed my problems!

If you're doing a fresh install, I think you still have to patch them up to the point they stopped making the individual EP patches.

Yes this is true. I just reformatted my PC and had to run a reinstall. I ran the latest patch thinking that would be it, no I was wrong, awesomemod almost blew up my game haha (no world edit tools, ctd AND core mismatch), so I read what Madame Mim said and got the patcher from MTS, and it downloaded and installed all the patches (it was so fast o_o), and my game is now working better than it did before.

Is AM still supposed to fix the reset bug when using the Spell Book from the store? I experienced this problem today and I am running AM. I fixed it myself by combining simon's fix with kissingtoast's MagicItems fix. Here's the script error log, if it's any use at all.

Hoping to get this right from the start....let me know if more info is needed.

Awesomemod appears to be causing a game crash.

I only recently got Pets, and updated all mods and objects carefully. The crashing definitely dates from that change; the game ran fine pre-Pets.

I'm using the most recent published version of AM (dated 30th Jan), and am patched to 1.29 with the intermediate patches as well.  I have all EPs up to Pets, no stuff packs. Currently installed are Riverview and two CC-free custom worlds (Neverglade and Niua Samoa), both of which have worked fine until now. The only CC is store stuff attached to Riverview, and of course Awesomemod.

The crash is occurring at random intervals in live mode, on any speed. The screen goes black for a moment, then comes back (but frozen) for another few moments, then crashes to desktop. The errors are usually 0x00000030, which the Crashlog Analyser interprets as a corrupted save. I have had some reports of faulty CC as well, with various error codes. I can't spot any correlation between crashes and any game activity - I installed Twallan's Errortrap but it didn't catch anything at the right times.

Sometimes the game runs for one or two sim-days before a crash, sometimes less. Using a previously crashed save will crash much faster, but restored backups still do it after a couple of days. My current game is in Neverglade, a large world, and involves an eight-sim household and their stuff, but I believe my system should be coping with that.

Crash log info that could be useful:
