FFS Debugger - Clearing Gossip freezes while SOLVED

[twistingsims]

<snipped>

New glitch: When saving, I've been having the game freeze up on me sometimes during the save process.  I am now saving every 5-10 (real life) minutes so that I don't have to keep replaying the same days over and over and over again.

I suspect it may be related to "clear gossip" on the batbox, as it only does it when I've finished playing the lot and I try to save (I routinely clear gossip before I move on to another lot).  Doesn't seem to occur during my "just in case I can't save later" saves.  I tested this theory by "clearing trash" and was able to save, then I nuked attraction markers and was able to save.  After these successful saves I immediately cleared gossip, and got a freeze during save.  I'll try playing a few lots without clearing gossip and if I get any more frozen saves I'll update this post.

The game-hangs-on-save-after-clearing-gossip thing happened to me, but only after I also had witches in the family. I cleared gossip once before and saved fine, after making two witches and clearing gossip saving the game froze my computer. And of course I only remembered I oughtn't have done that after it happened. 

I am having the same problem as the above members (no witches in my families) and I haven't seen this addressed as of yet, if it has, I haven't seen it and apologize in advance.  I have the latest version of FFS Lot Debugger (09/02/208) and I have used it on brand new lots and the game still freezes when saving. 

Thanks

I am consistently unable to reproduce this issue, and there is no reason why it should do that. It should not depend on what lot you use and I have never been able to freeze it. Therefore, it must somehow be your fault, so quit messing with it. The Lot Debugger is not a toy.

i having the same thing but nothing to see with FFS Lot Debugger, i think is AL borkingness, my game freeze 10-20 seg. before start saving in special with apartments and i dont cleaned the cleared gossip.

As I said in the AL bork thread, mine froze and crashed while saving too. I don't have the lot debugger and no sims were on the lot while I was building. It's something to do with AL. The exception said it committed an access violation.

i am not expert but you problem seen ( beside AL bork ) somethiing is corrupt, the lot o may be your savings, if this happen one time not if big problem but if you try again a and happen then  something ( i think  ) is corrupt.

Well, I can consistently reproduce this issue and I KNOW its not a toy and I am NOT "messing with it", I wouldn't even KNOW how to mess with your mods.  I am using it as per your instructions for this mod.

I have a completely fresh install from scratch.  The only mods I have (from the most recent "moreawesomethanyou" zip) are the following;

alfixes.package
antiredundancy.package
antiweatherreaction.package
ffsdebugger.package
ltwvariety.package
nobabyharassment.package
noeatcrap.package
nostrayrespawn.package
notownieregen.package
nowhatsthis.package
phonehack.package
phonehack-talkmodule.package
sshack.package
table-thinkingcap.package
vacationfixes.package

I removed all other custom content.

I also included quotes from two other members who have had the same issue, so I am not the only one.

I have reproduced this issue several times with different lots, all AL playable lots.  When I use the Lot Debugger by pressing the menu options, "clearing trash" and "nuked attraction markers" I am able to save.  I then use the "clear gossip", a pop-up comes up saying "cleared 136 something" as usual, I then go to save and it just hangs and hangs until I have to go to the desktop and end task.

I have Sims 2 Double Deluxe as my base game, would this have anything to do with it?
