Wow, so I totally thought that the icon on the self-sim page was the sim. They are like, identical. O.O I wish I was that good. I made a self-sim of me once, didn't turn out very good. :/    Amazing job.

If I take out my downloads my sims will not show up right, and neither will any of their furniture. I have a lot of CC that makes up my sims. I rarely use any of the stuff that comes with the game. Isn't there any way to fix it without taking out my downloads? They are all organized and everything.

I don't have any hacks at all, and I've always installed my games in order from the most recent to the oldest.

I've been playing this family for quite a while now, and they wanted another child. But when she got pregnant, I keep getting the error messages with only three options: cancel, reset, and delete. It only started when I installed freetime. I have nightlife, university, pets, freetime, seasons, and apartment life installed. This is my favourite female sim.  Help?

PROBLEM SOLVED!
YAY!

So after endless searching, I finally found something that worked.

^^ 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.

How do I do that? >.<

PROBLEM SOLVED!
yay!
I found out that it was inteen making my game not work right.
I'm so excited. But now when I try to bring up the cheat box, it's not working.
So many problems.

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.  

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:






Help is greatly appreciated.

i'm so excited! i didn't really think very many people would like her. yay! i'm working on maybe making her brothers and sisters. that'll be quite fun.

I present to you, Zaharia Kisslinger.
Age: 23
Biography: Zaharia is the youngest child out of her 7 siblings. She has 3 sisters and 4 brothers. Her parents were very family oriented and insanely rich. She dropped out of high school at the age of 16 and ran off to the other side of the country. She was a very rebelious girl and got her first facial piercing at the tender age of 13. Her first piercing was her septum. Which she loves dearly, as it was done by herself with a safety pin on her bus to school one day. She was an aspiring artist. She is very creative and loves to do simple drawings of everyday life. Some people clasify her as a "cyber goth" when really, she just loves the platforms and skimpy clothing. She's interested in both men and women. She is single, too.
Sex: Female.
Zodiac: Libra
Origin: Romanian.

OH, if you have pets, she has a dog. His name is Nae. And he's a boxer. Taurus: doofus, hyper, independent, aggresive, finicky. She loves him mucho.



Big thanks goes to all these lovely creators. Zaharia wouldn't be possible without you. <3

not too sure if I did this right, if there are any problems with downloading her, message me and I'll try to fix it. she really is lovely.

more pictures to come hopefully.

well, now it's only doing that when i move new sims into a house. but after they've moved in and the game has been closed and reopened, it's just fine. so it doesn't really bother me all that much. but i'll probably end up giving my al to my best friend since she wants it for her computer. although her's is a bit old and may not run it either. bummer. thanks for the help anyway though. i'll update my drivers and such and see what happens


OH also, if you're good at making sims, i'd like to have a self sim done. i've done one myself, but unfortunately forgot to save my savedsims file when i uninstalled al, thus deleting myself. v.v

well,
this is a brand new gateway laptop.
here are the specs:

i hope that helps.

so, when I installed apartment life, it worked fine up until I loaded them onto a lot. that's when it went haywire. my sims were all dimented and what not, so I uninstalled and tried playing without it. I still had my families and such, but when I loaded them up, it had the same problem. it didn't do that before I installed apartment life. it worked just fine, but after I installed it and uninstalled it, it's all rawr with me. here's what I'm talking about when I say dimented.

it's frustrating. >< help?


add (5 minutes later): btdubs, that big white thing is my dog. O.o and my girl is headless for some odd reason.
