Please help me - FIXED

(1/4) > >>

AxelVal:
I have every expansion pack + Teen Style Stuff and I just installed Ikea Stuff a few days ago and since then I have been unable to play.
My game freezes at one of two points:
1. On the neighborhood screen when I click on a house.  The Family Information box doesn't come up and my game freezes.
2. After I click "Enter House"  If the Family Info box does pop up, I can't enter a house because I can't get past clicking the enter household button without the game freezing.

The first seems to happen most often.
Could it be a CC glitch?  Maybe a hack?
Please help, I've tried many times to play with the same results and I'm at my wits' ends with it.

rwills:
Absolutely sounds like a cc incompatibility or conflict.

First thing to do is to make sure all your EPs and SPs are patched.

Second thing to try is to temporarily move (don't delete it, just move it) the Downloads folder in My Documents--EA Games--The Sims2 to someplace else on your computer. If after that the problem goes away when you run the game (and don't Save those test runs, just Quit the game without saving instead), then you definitely have either incompatible or conflicting files in the Downloads folder.

AxelVal:
My games are fully patched, darnit...
My game always does this when I get new anything  :-X

Thanks.  I'll try the whole "half downloads in" attempt.

caffeinated.joy:
If you have your hacks in a subfolder, or know what they all are, try with the hacks first.

it would also be worth it to try deleting your cigen.package and group.cache

AxelVal:
Thanks, CJ.
I tried everything I could think of but no luck except this:
I have a test family in another neighborhood - no CC of any kind.  They'll load up no matter what, but I've only tried two families (them and the family I'm playing next)
I can't find my cigen.package but I'll delete the group.cache.
