Heya lilaposta

Is this happening in a neighborhood that was created after today's patch?

You'll need to move or delete the Neighborhoods file in Documents -> EA Games -> The Sims 2 and a new Neighborhoods file will generate when you launch the game again.

If so, could you provide an EA Error Report ID and DxDiag for tracking purposes?

    Hi!

    This happened both with a neighborhood I created when the game re-released and with a new one I created today after the patch. Deleting the Neighborhoods file didn't solve it.

    Here is my report ID: 5cd319cd-fcc2-4096-987a-b935ddfd75e7

    And here is my DxDiag file.

    Thank you!
