Pleasantview Soapbox ~ UPDATE 03/01 ~ FINAL CHAPTER
brittybe:
Thank you all so much for the positive comments. My sincere apologies for the long silence. Work has been absolutely crazy and the holidays took a lot of my time as well. I really needed a break from simming and everything else ;)
Now I have returned nice and tanned from a sweet little holiday on one of the canary islands. I also recently started playing the sims again, but I had a little accident. Yes, I broke my game :( And stupid me didn't have any back ups of my neighborhood :(
I really don't know what I did wrong. I downloaded a lot of stuff and then my game refused to start. So I removed my complete download folder and the stupid game still didn't start. I decided the best thing to do was to uninstall and reinstall everything. At the moment I nearly have all my EP's installed again. Because I was playing my Pleasantview neighborhood for the story I hope that with the help of some hacks (like inSIMenator) I';; be able to kind of recreate the whole storyline again.
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hopefully I'll still be able to post the rest of the sim story.

Oh no!! Poor Brittybe. *Gives jar of cookies.* I had a crash like that once, except everything on the computer died, everything, and when I tried to recreate any sims, I failed miserably. :cry:

Omg! I Love your stories of the Premades. I was doing something like this.. I wanted to make little stories about them. And have a few different stories happen and then keep them on the same track as Maxis did.. but I'm a huge procrastinator. T_T lol. I have so many things I want to do.. that I'm trying to do them all at once. lol.
Anyways... Hun. I wish I had seen this sooner. I think I have a solution to your problem. However, I "could" be wrong.. so.. :-/ maybe don't get your hopes up.
This happened to me as well. I always have to go on a huge downloading spree. And then one day.. I go to start up my game...
I wait. . . and wait. Hmm. thinks -- well, I did just download abunch.. soo it could be why it's taking so long... Nope. Never came up. :(. Then I thought.. well I'll just go into Bodyshop. Waited. Never came up.
By then, I was freaking out. I tried everything, system restore, removing my downloads, removing my certain neighborhoods. Nothing.
Then with the help of my boyfriend, we tried everything!
Nothing again. Then . . . I got to thinking.. wait a minute.
Bodyshop isn't coming up.. what was that thing... OH Yeah. I took this one shot to try and see if this would work: And it did! ^.^
Try this. Well.. I'm not sure.. is your bodyshop working? If so.. still try this hun, it could fix your game. Seeing as my game wasn't coming up either.
Go to:
Start
My Documents (Or where ever you stored your The Sims 2 game)
Ea Games
The Sims 2
Scroll all the way down. Or until you find a file called Groups.Cache. Grab the file and move it to your desktop.
Then re-load your game. Now, do not worry about that file. ;)
Once you start up your game, it automatically makes a new one. IF your game loads up. Your groups.cache file was corrupted. This happens sometimes. I'm assuming, it happens when you download alot. Just.. sometimes it ends up corrupted, I have no idea why. lol
You can also move your accessories.cache to your desktop too. Once your game loads up (if it does) you can check the folder again to see new ones. (And not so big of KB being used either) and then you can delete the "copied" ones from your computer.
Good luck, Sweetie. And I hope this helps you get your game to working again. :-)
It did for me.
