Elder men cause crash

[LynnMar]

I  can't get my elder men to cycle through their clothes.  They can do all the gorilla outfits and others but when they come to the sims2 clothes they will crash.    In the game and in  bodyshop.  The elder women are all right.

  Did you ever hear of this happening before.  I am up to BV now but they sent me a dvd and I ordered a cd because all of my other sim discs are cd's.   

   I am trying to contact the seller and get a refund.  I got this from the UK and the time is all messed up,  it does not say 2:00 or 3:00 am, it says 22:00.   I am not in the navy,  I don't know how to read that kind of time.     

  also after I installed the BV, my neighborhood with the seasons people disappeared,  I forgot to back them up,  I tried to transfer the neighborhood from the Seasons folder but then the game crashed.

   I hate dvd versions, I had one once with sims 1 and I took it back and got the cd version because I had so much trouble with it.

   Do you think it is okay to mix the cd and dvd versions?   What can I do about my elder sim men?   Should I get a hack and hide all the maxi clothes or what?        thanks

Baleet all cache thumbnails?

[LynnMar]

thanks dollbaby       Did you mean all casthumbnails  that are in the thumbnail folder in your sims documents,  thumbnails or something else?

No,  that did not work, he can get all the way to the count dracula outfit and the grey sweater that comes next and then he crashed the bodyshop again.   

okay now I have a  bodyshop text doc. in my sims folder and it says:

does that help you to figure it out?   Sorry it was so long.   

[J. M. Pescado]

No, this is mostly meaningless. Try chucking all your groups.cache and other thumbnail things. Does that help? Perhaps one of those is bad.

[keirra]

If you want to change the time in your game there is a tutorial here.

[Marhis]

If the thumbnail deletion doesn't work, there has to be a corrupted clothing;have you tried removing your Downloads folder?

A similar thing happened to me in my early days of play, when I was young, innocent and without a clue; I spent months deleting pool ladders, diving boards and hottubes whenever an elder female was around, because if they change in swimming suit the game would crash. It turned out some of the original game files were corrupted, and a reinstall solved the issue. Playing TS2 in those conditions was a PITA.

[nekonoai]

Old men. Tight Pants. Coincidence?!

[LynnMar]

thank you all so much.  I am getting ready to fix the language in my regestry.  Very good tutorial. 

 Would the corrupted clothes be an outfit of an elderly man or just anybodies clothes?   The elderly men are the only ones that cannot cycle through the clothes.  If taking out the download folder does not work,  I will have to reinstall.   No one has ever told me yet if they still had the original seasons hood after they installed BV or does everyone lose it?   I have the three original hoods again,  pleasantville, the alien hood and the victorian hood.  I will try it without the download folder and report back if this helped or not.   Thanks again everyone.   

I know my spelling is off today but I don't have a spellchecker.  sorry.


Yeah, he is fixed and I just had to remove one of his outfits and my clock is fixed now too.   You guys  ROCK !!   

[Jasumi]

I have had this same exact issue. But I found the culprit (in case you ever run into this problem)


The file is around 6mb large. It's a hex code file that begins with the letter "e" and is about 32 letters long.


So keep a look out for those types of files.

[Zazazu]

The file is around 6mb large. It's a hex code file that begins with the letter "e" and is about 32 letters long.

That file name is automatically generated by the game's default installer. This is why you should use Clean installer. As it is "long hex code" doesn't really help.

[J. M. Pescado]

The file is around 6mb large. It's a hex code file that begins with the letter "e" and is about 32 letters long.

All files with names like that should be summarily deleted without exception.
