Is this common?
invaderzim:
I'm having a bit of a problem, and its got me scratching my head.
I found a site today that I'd never seen, and they have some great sets that I wanted to use to create a new shopping district. For some reason, every single item causes my game to crash on startup. I thought maybe it was a compatibility issue (I have base, UNI, NL, OFB).
That wasn't the problem though, because its even happening with sets and items that only need the base game. I've tried the full set in a folder, and then went so far as to try each item individually.
Its very odd, but every one of them crash my game when its about halfway loaded. It happened ONLY with the items from this particular site.
Has anyone had this happen, or heard of such a thing?
ladymiriam:
Never heard of that myself, I'd like to know what site you were at, though, just so I know not to get anything if I do come across it. At least you can easily get rid of them if they are all borked. Sorry, I can't be any more help.
rwills:
Strictly a random thought, but are you sure it is a Sims 2 site and not a Sims3 site?
Engram:
What site is it and what sets did you download from there? There are certain items known to crash the game (eg. Tiki side table from TSR), but we need to know what you downloaded in order to take a look at it and try to find out what the problem may be.
gazania:
I had that happen with a bunch of Sims 2 stuff by this particular creator on TSR. (Can't remember the name .... sorry.) EVERY item from this creator crashed big-time. And these were Seasons items, and I had Seasons. They were obviously based off Maxis Seasons items. That was the last time I ever downloaded anything from anyone at TSR.
It's also happened to me with a bunch of furniture from another site. Once again, I don't remember the name. It wasn't a well-known one ... I do know that. It wasn't ModtheSims, Insim, Tarox, etc.
So while no, I don't think it's common, it does happen from time to time. Good thing you could find the items quickly and get rid of them!
