I cannot make my game stable with cc.

@Seera1024 I play the sims 3 and with the cc I can play and I am using the HD mod too. I got no problems. I barely have problems of crashes except of course the creators who made them horrible in cas.
In the sims 2 it's not possible at all to even create a house with cc. It is always crashes, crashes and crashes sometimes it crashes when I enter an empty maxis lot to tell you. I did the 50/50 method, I found two bad cc in the misc decoration catalog. I have been so happy because I thought my nightmare was over. Nope, once again, the tv and computer crashes, and so others and others. >:)
So matter of stability.. sims 2 is lame !
And matter of loading with cc it lames too it takes more than an hour and it's slow. But this game does not use a lot of ram half a 1Gb to tell (the sims 4 itself without cc takes easy 2GB)
I am not a sims 2 hater, it's still one of my favourite equally with the sims 3 and I love creating with it. I am just a angry I am bitter and a bit jealous of people who can enjoy creating fabulous houses without crashes.

Sims 2 is the most amazing game to decorate house, it's my favourite activity here I even don't play anymore such I am always with new ideas of houses.

The 50/50 methods sometimes does not help . I surely got something wrong as @Pary said , I might have something that conflicts so hard with my game because it's not normal at all I feel this.
The game runs without cc but that's not my cup of tea anyways. I just can't play.

@Pary : thank you very much for the insight, I'll download it.

And I've got over 6 GB of CC in my Sims 2 game so Sims 2 takes CC. I've got 150+ Sims decked out in CC proving that the game allows for CC. I've got CC objects and CC floors and CC walls. Sims 2 has no issue with CC. I like very few Maxis hairs so I've got defaults for as many hairs as possible.

The 50/50 method does help. The more CC you have the more likely that you have more than one piece of bad CC. So if you just stop after you find the first bad file and then add everything back in, you may still end up with issues. Especially if you've gone in and deleted duplicates. You may have deleted files that other CC files that did not have duplicates rely on in order to work properly.

I know there are CC stairs that require you to have one version in your game for the others to work. I'd imagine there are other pieces of CC furniture that are like that.

If the hack conflict detector doesn't find anything you've got a few choices:

1. Stop trying to find whatever piece of CC that's causing the issues and stop playing the game.
2. Stop trying to find whatever piece of CC that's causing the issues and start the CC collecting over from scratch being more careful with what is downloaded to avoid problems in the first place.
3. Do the 50/50 method to try to find the problematic CC items. Yes this is tedious to do it properly.

Personally with the amount of CC you have, it may be best to just do #2 and start fresh. Sims 2 CC does still exist out there.

But to do #1 without even trying #2 is not something I would suggest as I could understand with having as much CC as you do that doing #3 is just not worth it if you don't even know if your conflict is in build or buy or CAS items.

And what do you mean by tv crashing?
