Plumbbob startup = crash to desktop

[simmiecal]

Whew! At first I thought my neighborhood had already blown up.
I start-up the game, it plays its stupid little movie and then when it gets to the "Open for Business" screen (where you wait while it loads your custom content) I would get an error saying that the application has crashed and will be terminated. I panicked, removed all downloads - still crashing. Went under another XP user ID - able to load, so no problem the game files are ok.

Retracing my steps as to what I recently changed - I remembered that I put in the plumbbob cheat in my start-up file. So, I remove the cheat and the game fires up fine. Just to double check, put the cheat back in, and yep - crash to desktop.

You can have the cheat in there as an alias but not the cheat directly. (I hate the plumbbob and always wanted it off.)
