A Sims 2 crash that no one seems to have except me. Me and my wife recently purchased Sims 2. Everything installed fine, it loads quickly, everything ran perfectly. About 2-3 days into playing my wife complains about the game crashing when she moves her sims into a certain house and starts playing them( it would say the game crashed and it needs to terminate). It was just that particular house, so she chose another home and the game worked just fine. Then it started happening in that home as well. To keep a long story short, now it happens in every home she moves into. Also, I decided to create a whole village, just for fun, worked fine, I made all the lots and effects, then it was time for me to make the homes and buildings. The first place I made went just fine and dandy, then I decided to create a building on another lot. The moment I place the "wall" pointer on the lot and press the mouse button to make the first wall of the building, it crashes with the same error message. I've looked all over the internet for people with the same problem and haven't found anyone experiencing this. I need help or my wife will destroy me!
Help? Is there anyone who can help me with this problem. A reply would be great. If I posted this thread to the wrong forum, it would be nice if someone would let me know.
I'm not very technicalogically minded and can't assist, but you're in the right area. Check out the FAQ's and post your computer specs, then when someone who gets online who knows what they are talking about might be able to help you better and quicker. Here is the link to what they need: http://forums.worldsims.net/showpost.php?p=94222&postcount=2 Hope your problem gets solved, doesn't sound like much fun!
Hope you get back those the technical details, Kavin. Also please confirm that you not playing with a "no CD" untility like Alcohol or Daemon. You need to play the game with disc in the drive -- this the main cause of build-mode failure. As to the to the other problems ... well the more detail the better. Anything that ibvolves a sequence (or series of events) should be detailed in clear chronological order with an indication of the time scale involved. The FAQ's are linked to in my signature. I must get around to adding some more items. Problems are amazingly easy to solve when the person with the problem supplies the right information. You might think this reply with no answers (and too many uncorrected typos) is long but a brief list of the possible causes of the trouble you're having would a hundred times longer. Most problems are answered within 24 hours almost all get a reaction within 2 days. LOL Waddaya expect, blood? It helps if you make sure the setting in your profile is set to allow other users to email you. Many itmes I ahve wanted to email someone directly because I am not sure they are picking up the replies on the board but they have disallowed the receipt of emails. Of course I could email you anyway because the staff can do that kind of thing except that it be unethical since it would violate your privacy. People have no idea how frustrating it is to see these oprhan problems. Part of me cares too much and the other part wonders why I bother. I'm still waiting for Pixellated hwes to notice that I solved his/her problem two days ago ... :(
