Game crashing
Tenshii~Akari:
It's a possibility... sometimes the game does that to certain files, regardless of EPs. The best thing to do is to move those files out, even if they are in use, then test them either in small groups or individually. It's a big pain... trust me, I'm still trying to find the one download (or maybe more than what I think it is) that broke recently...

Thank you very much TenshiiAkari12. I will remove everything and get right to work on testing. I'll report back if/when I find the problem.
EDIT: I just removed absolutely everything from my Downloads folder and deleted the groups.cache file. I tried loading the game. Still crashed. What's the problem? Is there something else I still need to do?
2nd EDIT: When I removed the files from the Downloads folder, I kept them in a Backup Folder in my Sims 2 folder. I moved the Backup Folder out of the Sims 2 folder and it loaded. I'm now assuming it's a corrupted file or bad download if removing the files from the Sims 2 folder altogether allowed the game to load. Now I'll gradually add them beck in to see which file(s) are causing the problem. Thank you.

If you want to have a backup folder for your downloads, keep it out of the sims 2 folder. The game will read all .package files it finds in the sims 2 folder, with the exception of projects I believe, and try to use them.

Well, I found the problem and removed it. Just played about 2 hours. Ran perfectly fine. Thank you both very much. The thread can be closed now. Thanks again.
