Title: Late Night - can't load any neighbourhood Post by: anaelir on 2010 October 28, 15:53:13 I got carried away in this particular topic ( http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,19367.0.html ), but I'll detail the problem here.
Right, so I installed The Sims 3 Razor version, World adventures - reloaded, Ambitions - vitality and Late Night - reloaded. Installation went perfectly, I encountered no issues. However, I first tried to play the game with my old custom content (hairs, clothes, stuff like that) and saved games in place, but the game crashed while loading one of my saves. I thought it was because of my custom content, so I deleted the Sims 3 folder in My documents, and tried to start a new game, but the game crashed yet again while loading the neighbourhood. And this doesn't happen just with Bridgeport, it happens with the other neighbourhoods as well. I reinstalled Late Night, but nothing has changed. Any ideas as to what might be causing this? Thanks in advance! Title: Re: Late Night - can't load any neighbourhood Post by: DJKID on 2010 October 28, 21:09:50 Have you tried uninstalling, reinstalling everything and starting clean?

That seems to solve most loading/world loading problems, and you *should* be able to transfer your save files over.

Title: Re: Late Night - can't load any neighbourhood Post by: anaelir on 2010 October 29, 12:00:14 Actually, I've managed to find out what was causing this. It was the crack. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled everything, but I didn't crack Late Night, I kept the image mounted in Daemon Tools and that solved the problem. All custom content and my old saved games work again. Generally speaking, the game runs smoothly (if you ignore all the glitches).
Try renaming your The Sims 3 folder in your documents to something else and letting the game generate a new one. That seems to solve most loading/world loading problems, and you *should* be able to transfer your save files over. Well, I didn't rename it, I blatantly deleted it (I had a backup on another drive anyway) and the game generated a new one. Still, it wouldn't work. Where do you keep your mod/package files? In My Docs or in the game folder? I keep them in My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods, but when I was trying to get the game to work, I removed the 'The Sims 3' folder altogether.

The game still asks for a game disk when trying to run without the image mounted in Daemon tools, although I have AM, so I'm sticking to what I think.

What an admirable stance in the face of all available evidence.
