Title: my families aren't loading. Post by: dokusouryoku on October 24, 2008, 11:04:11 am So, I've made a family, and everything has gone just fine. But when I go to move them into a house or apartment, the game stops responding. So I thought maybe it's just that I have a lot of CC on them, so I made a sim with zero CC and went to move her into a house, and it did the same thing. I'm about to give up on AL. My graphics card is amazing. Before I put my downloads in I wanted to see how my GC would do, so I played a family that came with the game to see how it would do. It was amazing. I just got this laptop on Tuesday, the 22. So it's got all the latest drivers and such. Help?
here's my dxdiag stuff: (http://i35.tinypic.com/x3edlg.jpg) (http://i37.tinypic.com/2417es7.jpg) Help is greatly appreciated. :) Title: my families aren't loading.

So it might be worth checking that out. :)
I don't recognise that graphics card series so I can't really say whether it's an issue with those unless it's just the drivers being outdated. Title: my families aren't loading. Post by: Jasumi on October 24, 2008, 11:10:52 am Do you have uintProp maxTotalSims # written in a cheat file? That can definitely prevent you from loading families if you don't re-type it in while in-game.
Title: my families aren't loading. Post by: dokusouryoku on October 24, 2008, 11:14:18 am I haven't used any cheats at all. I renamed my downloads folder so the game wouldn't read it, and my no CC sim loaded, but when I got to the lot, she was spinning. O.o I'm thinking about just uninstalling AL. All it does is cause me trouble. Depressing, but I would rather not have it than mess up my games. :(

But now when I try to bring up the cheat box, it's not working. :( So many problems. :( Title: my families aren't loading. Post by: Engram on October 24, 2008, 05:23:59 pm It's a HP and just about everyone with a HP is having this problem. Change the HP Health Check shortcut key combo to something other than ctrl+chift+C.

YAY! :D So after endless searching, I finally found something that worked. http://forums.worldsims.org/showthread.php?p=154183 ^^ muchas gracias to those people. apparently, with HP computers and laptops, you need to press ctrl+shift+WINDOWS KEY+c v.v well, at least my sims aren't scrounging for money and they can actually live life now. :) |
