My game crashes, please help!

<< < (9/10) > >>

Kristof:
It works perfect with folder 1, 2 and 3 in the downloads folder.
I'm trying to put there folder 4, so it will load with 4 folders.
Will see.

Kristof:
here are the news, I put there folder 5 + 1 other folder

folder 5 + folder 1 = OK
folder 5 + folder 2 = OK
folder 5 + folder 3 = OK
folder 5 + folder 4 = OK
folder 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = CRASH

I removed some stuff from folder 5, I'm loading the game without them. From the 600 MB of folder 5, I left there 400 MB, and I removed the rest 200 MB.

EKozski:
You've got a conflict in one or more of those folders.

Try different combinations with those folders. Hopefully that will narrow it down more.

gazania:
Are there any modded objects in Folder 5? Ones that regulate or encourage certain actions, such as a special sofa or bed? That might be a place to focus. This may NOT be the cause, but you might want to be particularly aware of these objects. They can cause a lot of trouble! In my case, it was a modded bed. It clashed with another modded object in another folder.

So ... 1, 2, 3 and 4 work OK without 5? I hope so ... your job would be easier then. Right now, though this is far from certain, it looks like certain items in Folders 3 and 5 might not be cooperating with each other, which is similar to what happened to me several months back. If folders 1 through 4 work fine without 5, then you would probably have to do the 50/50 with 5. Continue working with 5 with the other four folders in the game until you can narrow down the trouble item in 5.  Note which item it is and remove it to another part of your desktop or My Documents temporarily before deleting it. Then try the game without the item.

You might also want to try Folder 3 again with that one trouble file and narrow down which item was the troublemaker in that one, if you want to know what item in 3 had been giving you heartburn. It might be in that second half of 3. Then you might have to choose whether you want the Folder 5 item or the Folder 3 item, for instance. It doesn't look like you can have both. If the item in 5 wasn't important, I suppose you can skip this step.

Occasionally, you can look at the comments for that trouble item in 5 on the download site. If you go the item from here or Mod The Sims 2, for example,  you might find what happened if you read the comments. That's how I found out about one clashing item. If you're really lucky, the creator might have already known about the conflict and has a brand-new file for you to try. Make sure you have the right expansions/stuff packs for it.

It might not seem like this, but you are narrowing things down. :)

Theraven:
If you have mods/hacks/modded objects in multiple folders, then test these on their own.

Also, did you try the thumbnail thing?
