What I have come to find out guys, that it is the custom content really screws with the game. Once I disabled the custom content ...the game worked as normal. This is probably EA's way of only allowing their content. As most content comes from gamers and the best stuff is custom!

Happy simming!

What you said Abrais what you said is right on the money... It is going to take me hours to tract down what downloads are conflicting my game and my downloads are in proper order! individual rooms down to the recolors! I will try to take out the hacks and see what happens but I agree with you...AL has altered a whole lot more then previous add ons and its really doing my head in! there are many more bugs then I have had with any of the other ep's come to think of it I haven't had too much problem with bugs until now... EA Games have a lot of explaining to do! and I hope they come up with some patches sooner rather then later...

For some reason every time I have chosen a room mate, their faces pop up as an NPC (and I can see all of their needs and such) but they never enter the house? and I never actually see them as a sim on the lot. Is that how its suppose to be? I thought I was suppose to interact with them? aren't they suppose to live in the house?  

Please someone help?!

I dont know but you tell me...If you have downloads (which I have MANY) the houses dont load? Not to mention that I saved the game in a different location, and it still wrote over my families...they seemed to have disappeared!! Is anyone else having this problem? If so what should I do? If I uninstal APT Life will I get my families back? or do I just remove my downloads and add them back slowly? suggestions guys?:sad4:

Well after reading the debate about Securom I am going hold my purchase of the new EP until it is reviewed.

I agree with both of you completely!

Truly I don't think my computer can handle another EP ! as I am avid Sims player...what they need to come up with is a system to handle all the downloads   so you can run the game without all the crashes and something to handle the files so it shortens the hours it takes the game to load! However they really got it made! as I am totally hooked and all of the above probably wont stop me from buying the new expansions! What do you guys think?

Shouldn't be a problem when I have loaded neighborhoods in the past I had no issues no matter what expansions I had, Just when you decide to play that saved neighborhood you will have to (+) on the new ep's I would recommends numbering in the correct order..N001,N002 etc.

OK... I put it in the download folder and the screen changed...but it was all wonky... I couldn't see the sim...it was behind the mirror... any idea's of what I'm doing wrong?

Has anyone downloaded the pregnancy Hack from ModtheSims? does it work or has anyone had any problems?

Does anyone know where there are any good links to Pregnancy clothes?

Yes!!! The REIA that sound right!! More... more give me more!! I will try and Google it as well, but any help from someone who has done it would be great!

Oh... and what do you mean put the CAS in the download folder?? under what? You mean take the CAS folder from the main files and put it in the download folder???

No... the Plus sign is for when you create a neighborhood. I have already done that...(created the neighborhood) I want it to move around in its neighborhood box like Pleasentville.

Ok...

Question # 1
You know how when you load Sims 2, the first three neighborhoods move in their little boxes? (you know before you click into towns) if you make your own town... How do you get that one to move in its box?

Question #2

I am trying to change the CAS screen when creating my sims... every time I rename the new CAS file ... the old one keeps popping up... Why?

I would suggest putting them into a sub folder as well, that way when your game crashes... You will know first where to start to remove files. I would also suggest you get to filing/cleaning your download folder and get "Delphy's organizer" if you like to download a lot like me... its wonderful! also the more downloads you have... the slower your game will run. I am finding that right now. I have had to start breaking down my custom content downloads. Just a tip... I'm sure the others would agree.

You may or may not have done this already... but after you reinstalled... did you restart your computer? I know it sounds stupid... but the dirty components need to clean themselves from your computer.
