Nope, I haven't... and I didn't know that. (Ya learn somethin new every day. :lol: ) I'd hate to have to reinstall, but if ya gotta, ya gotta (and if it doesn't work, I gotta). Now here's a good question: is this advice for the Bun profile, the Margaret profile, or both? :lol:

And good luck in trying to figure yours out. (I'd offer to help, but if I can't figure out my own issues, there's no way I'm gonna figure out anyone else's.)

Okay, I took all CAS stuff out of my downloads (on Bun) and it's still crashing. Here's the odd thing, though... I can go to any mirror and change thier looks, I can go through InSim and change thier facial structure, and I can go buy things at the stores... but I just can't make anyone in CAS. I have no earthly idea what's going on with that one.

On the Margaret one, I found that it is most likely what ancient said.. CC.. and this is due to something I found through playing yesterday. I simply wanted to give my sim a different job and right after I did, I sent him to bed. I immediately thought, 'Oh damn, it's gonna crash', and I waited for the sound of crashing game... but it never came. Turns out, the bed is a Maxis bed with a Maxis bed set on it. The other bed in the other house that crashed.. is a custom bed.

Thing is, (also on the Margaret one) in another community, it took me about five tries to fully furnish a Maxis made house because it kept crashing. -sighs- This is really confusing and really frustrating, but I'm willing to try any suggestions that are handed to me. Thanks for the help so far, guys.

On Margaret:
I try not to get CC that doesn't go with an EP I don't have, but I suppose I could've overlooked something in the process.

I may sound really stupid asking this, but... what's a binary search, and how do I do that? Would going through my files in Clean Installer do any good?

I'd hate to have to do that, but if it comes to that... so be it. :lol:

On Bun:
By the way, removing the cigen.package didn't work. (Darnit.) I also tried removing cigen and everything that has to do with CAS out of my downloads (save for a few skins made by Louis and a set of teeth made by the Merco site), but that didn't help either. If this makes any sense, it stops loading at the fifth line of icons (from the left of the screen), stops for awhile, then crashes.

First of all, thank you for replying. Second, I will definitely try deleting the cigen.package on that account... I thought it was something important, so I left it in. :lol: I'm the type to go by the "if you don't know what it does, leave it alone" saying. :lol:

Third, on the Margaret account - if I remember right, it doesn't crash when I go to build one.. only when I go to furnish it.. but recently, I went to play a house previously built and furnished (by me), and it crashed when I went to put the parents to bed. I was working on putting a pair of twins through college, and the girl was sleepy, so I told her to go to bed - and it crashed. It seems to be different triggers for different things, I think. For instance, I tried playing another house, and it did just fine until I went to move a ceiling light that I had just put in. Whatever my issue is, it's getting annoying. :lol:

Thank you for whatever help you can give me, though. It's much appreciated.

I know this is a problem that has probably been covered a zillion times, but I'm still not sure on what to do for my specific problem.

I have two profiles on my computer (one labeled "Bun", one labeled "Margaret"). The Margaret one is my main profile, the Bun one is a backup of sorts.

On the Margaret one, my Sims2 loads just fine (I have Sims2 Holiday, Uni, OfB, and Nightlife). It has all of my CC and my custom communities on it. With this one, the main issue is this: I can CAS just fine, but when I go to build a house from scratch or furnish a house, it crashes (this is using both Maxis and CC objects). Also, I can play a house that's already there (like one I made before all this started), but I can't go into build mode ... or it'll crash.

On the Bun one, I have the same EPs and again, it loads just fine. It has very little CC, but no custom communities. On this one, I can play a house and buy anything I choose (I haven't tried making a house from scratch yet), but here's the kicker - I can't go into CAS. I can edit through a mirror, I can edit using the InSim.. but can't make a person in CAS. Oh, and recently found out I can't go buy anything in a shop (like clothing)... it crashes then, too.

I know all of this is very confusing... if anyone needs clarification, I'll be more than glad to tell you what I know. I don't have the net at home, so I'll be replying to any responses weekly through the library's computer (:lol:). Thanks SO much to anyone who can help.

Oooo.. a Poison shirt for my simmies... thanks a bunch! Great work, by the way.

Love Styker and Uri... they look great as always!

Thanks for this, Squinge! I can't stand it when they stand up to watch tv instead of using the chair when the only thing wrong with it is the angle its at.

These are the first simmies I've felt good enough about to post here, so I hope you ladies enjoy. From the left to right, we have Caine, Kyogi, and Myogi Satara. Caine is thier only son (so far lol) and this is just before he grew up into an adult. He looks JUST like Myogi, except for the eyes.. he takes his pretty blue eyes after Kyogi.

Nice work, Arcia! I loved Fang in Vane's book.. he was so adorable.. and the boy could talk anyone's ear off.. it was too funny. Thanks for the simmie.. he'll be perfect in my lil makeshift New Orleans.

I've made a human form of Simi, seasons.. she's available for download here on insim.. just look in the Sim Honeys thread.

Also, Arcia, I went to unpack Ash and I got a message that I'm missing some sort of expansion pack data. I've heard that when this happens, I need a clean installer.. how accurate is this, and where can I find one? Thanks for anyone that can help!

Edit: Nevermind on the clean installer.. I found one.. and YAY! I finally got Simi's Akri into the game!

Ok, I told Arcia I would do this as soon as I got the time, so here she is.

This is (supposed to be) Simi Parthenopaeus from the Dark Hunter book series. She is Acheron's "daughter", and she is also a Charonte Demoness. This is her human form; her demon form has red skin, red wings, black horns, and red eyes. Well I included the red eyes and black horns. I couldn't find a good enough pair of wings.. plus the bat-like wings I did try kept getting in the way, so I did away with them.

Anyhow, here's her info - almost all of her is custom content, and I apologize in advance for all of the downloading you guys and gals will have to do. ^.^;
