1  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Re: Ambitions and SURPRISE! - CTDs on: 2010 July 19, 05:33:49
Indie Stone slipped my mind, I honestly didn't even think I still had it in there since it really didn't serve me much purpose with awesomemod. It was the only bad, and conflicting CC.
The only other real game changing mods I had were slider hacks, and yes, I made sure they were compatible/updated.

Anyway, it seems to be relatively stable now with the LAA, so I'm hoping this will offer a fix for now.

I've been having shitty CTD happenings, just like everyone else here. I patched to 1.14 with base game, updated awesomemod, loaded up the game. Everything worked fine, it loaded and I went into my neighborhood. I grabbed the family I had been yearning to shove into a house and went to purchase/place them in one. The game shows that slow loading circle quite a while, then crashes to the desktop. No error warnings or anything, of course.

I'm using a pretty shitty laptop, but it's played the Sims 3 fine for over a year now (on full in-game graphics ,too). It's a Windows Vista, with 3 GB of RAM.

I tried the DEP trick---didn't work. Tried deleting my excess cache files---didn't work. I did download the LAA and set it to use more RAM, as well as the extra steps Vista users needed to take. I loaded the game up again and it crashed to the desktop at the same point as before. So of course, I tried again, but first ran the LAA and saw that the section was set back to false (per default), and not true as I thought I put it. So now I'm loading the game up again in hopes that it'll actually work, but I'm doubting it.

Anybody know of anything else I can do? I couldn't even tell you if it happens in buy mode cause I can't make it into a house, though I'm pretty sure it's not bad CC. The game actually didn't work before when I patched it until I realized I still had an old Indie Stone mod package.

Ahh, I see. These responses have been pretty helpful. I guess I really don't need Delphy's installer, though it did make things easier. I have Vista too, and have had confirm most actions before it would go through with them (Delphy's, for example), but it's never inhibited the installer from working. I'm just really ticked that I had to update my game when it was working fine otherwise.  I've never had to take AM out, too. The game starts fine with the launcher, but I cannot install anything with it any longer, and all of my Sims3pack CC appears to be gone. Well, atleast the makeup, as I saw.

Oh well, I'll keep searching for an answer.

Thanks Tever.AM now works and the my last save loaded after about ten grueling minutes. However, I now have a new problem. Much of my CC, particularly makeup(lipgloss) and Delphy's body mods do not work. I went through the motions of 'How to install the framework...'
Now, I'm not surprised that Delphy's don't work, but I'm still unsure as to what to do about my makeup not appearing, and I'm not entirely understanding why it won't.

Edit: Also, when I move to install any new download's with Delphy's Helper Monkey, I get an 'Access to the path C/program files/electronic arts, etc.' is denied.

Edit, again: Updating the resource file also produces an error,saying that access is denied and to check the path. I'm on an admin account, too.

I'm now realizing that. I guess it sort of slipped my mind because I've updated awesomemod, as it's been updated to work for different patches, WITHOUT having those patches installed for my game, and it's always worked fine. I suppose this will now force me to update my game, though I can only imagine the world of hell that will be released from doing so. Thanks, though!

No, I don't think that's true. Seeing as how I said I've used it fine, through all of it's updates up until now, I don't think it's incompatible.

I just retried loading the game only with a slightly older version of awesomemod and it loaded. I do get the flagrant system error though, and I know that's obviously because it's expired. I'm concluding that this awesomemod update might not be compatible without WA? I figured that in the first place, since it was added to be compatible with that game, but I had to update it because my old awesomemod was going to expire.

First off, I don't have WA installed and don't plan on getting it anytime soon. I have game version 1.3.24, and have not updated/attempted to update since then. I haven't experienced any major problems because of this, and frankly I couldn't be bothered to patch when Awesome mod assuages any major problems, for me.

Recently, my game launcher stopped working. I only use it when I'm forced to download a Sims3Pack, and I've never had a problem of it completely freezing and the installation terminating until now. The small screen for the installation progress pops up, but just stays black and freezes before the download even starts.

Secondly, the game simply won't load. I tried loading from both the .exe and the launcher, and I cleared my cache files. It loads until the intro, then crashed straight to the desktop. I took out my entire mods folder, but to no avail. I think took out the past few downloads I downloaded since my last gameplay, and that also did not work.

I'm kind of lost here, any help will do. Than you.

Edit: I downloaded the most recent awesomemod a few days before this happening because the game reminded my current version would was outdated/

Ho ho, these look good. I'm especially liking the cherub one, the sport one is a little too close to an already in game hair, only with much nicer textures. Hurrah.

Indeed about the poor layouts. The whole site used to freeze my computer just from loading. I agree about the overly shiny bodies and I'm having that problem with nearly every skin I've tried so far. Still, I'm keeping them around to match the faces for now until I find something more neutral.

I use ASE's male faces and bodies, as well as their female faces. They look pretty nice in my game, the lips look good especially. They're still yet to release the female body, so I'm forced to pair them with Peggy. Hers are too light though, and don't really match. I'd recommend the ASE's male bodies especially because they're not too muscular and slightly toned, pretty realistic. I guess it's all up to your tastes, though.
