I have been trying to load one particular lot in my favorite neighborhood, but the loading screen always stalls and nothing happens. I have let the game sit there for up to 20 minutes, and all it does is play music with that little hourglass turning around. I finally have to use the Task Manager to close TS2.
So I looked in my Error Logs folder and found 10 (yes, 10) errors from that lot, all from one day a couple of weeks ago (which I think was the last time I played the lot). They basically all say that there is an error with that one trellis catching on fire. I must have had an invisible fire on the lot, then saved without even realizing it. Now the whole lot seems to be borked.
I have found a couple of threads about the trellis fires, but there does not appear to be a fix for it yet. (I read through all the bug fixes from Seasons P3; apparently this particular bug was overlooked
) So, what can I do? I found the lot file in SimPE-- is there any way to delete the trellises from there? Should I uninstall Seasons? Am I doomed to lose all the cool stuff that I've accumulated on this lot?
Thanks for your help. I'll attach one of my many error logs if requested.
