Sim Fail
Hey guys! I announced this at my site, but I'll announce it here too since I know not everyone checks over there. My Sim game is broken. The saved game is still there, I just can't get to it. It's also saved numerous places to make sure that I don't lose the Lunes. Basically, I had a problem with the animation skipping backwards and repeating. So, I shut down the game and left it for a couple days because I couldn't get it fixed. I went to go back into it last week, and I can no longer get through the loading screen. Great. So, I removed all CC, removed the saved games, cleared all the caches and all the backups, and it still would not load. Double great.
I've moved since I first installed Sims 3, and I can't find my original game, so re-installing was not an option at the time. I have since borrowed my brothers copy of the Sims 3 and un-installed and re-installed the game. Then the launcher would not work. Fine, whatever. I could just send the screenshots over to my laptop and upload them from the working launcher on here (the laptop is mine, but runs Sims a bit slowly, the desktop is my husbands and runs Sims amazingly so I prefer to use that to play). But, I couldn't even get the game to start from the executable file, so off I went again to un-install and re-install the base game.
That time it worked and I could load up the game with no problems. I've now re-installed Ambitions (which is the only other Sims 3 pack I own), but I don't have all my Sims3Packs installed yet. It's been a fun week.
