Actually, I uninstalled it without any CC; I got it all actually off my computer by saving it on a disk and wiped it all clean. I use Clean Pack, too. But thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks. I'll try this. I'm just mad this happened. I'd love to have never bought that EP, but I'd never had a reason to distrust them before.

I have a brand new laptop with great specs and I never had a lick of trouble with the Sims until Freetime came out. It crashed constantly. So I uninstalled Freetime AND all of my old Sims games and reinstalled all of them except Freetime and they still crash, which they had never done before. It crashes with CC and without.

I haven't played in forever and I'm really mad that my games are all ruined now. Any advice? Freetime seems to have ruined my game.

Well, this long and still the same. Very rarely, I can get it to play for a night, but it's unpredictable and usually takes a bit of time to get it working. No CC at all can be added in. But it's the inability to actually PLAY it without an hour or so of reloading and freezing that gets me. I've never had a problem with an EP before. I think I may uninstall it. I just wish I hadn't bought it.

I bought it at a store.

And it's been since it came out, I have zero hacks or CC and I still cannot play. This sucks.

I've had FT for days now and while I love the ideas and the extra stuff, it's just so unpredictable. I cannot  have any CC at all in my game, even ones that have been updated for FT.

After taking out all CC and hacks, it STILL crashes and won't load the only house I've been able to play. I've turned off firewalls, I've updated drivers. I can't do anything else. I can't play any houses now. Ugh.


...Sorry, needed to vent.

Thanks guys. I can at least get it to run now.

But I can't have one downloaded thing in the game! The second I put any CC in the game at all (even a hack that's been updated for FT) I crash trying to open a neighborhood.

Anyone else have this problem? I mean, it's interesting playing the game mostly as is, heh, but I miss at least the hair and makeup CC I had. Plus a few other hacks.

Sorry. It crashes and stops responding. It's been a long day. I wasn't really thinking. This is also a new computer, so requirements are not an issue. Like, the screen goes black then it just stops responding.

Ok, I have no hacks or CC in my game anymore. Anytime I've gotten an EP I've always just left the downloaded stuff and never had a problem. This time I do it right and I can't play... Even with it all gone! I played it at first with the hacks and such put back in, then it quit. I removed it all and I still can't play! I've been trying to make one family for about 4 hours now.

I've never had a problem with an EP before. And I always just left my hacks in when I installed it.

So I took them out this time. And I was able to play it after I installed them, and then it suddenly stopped.  So now I have to take them out again, I guess.
