Help with the Vampire T-shirt

Hello!

Ah, I see what you mean about the package number. Sorry it didn't really make sense to me at the time. If I am understanding correctly, the package number will be in C:\Users\(You)\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\DCBackup. If the package number isn't in DCBackup, you obviously can't delete it again so leave it.

I am glad to hear that your game has worked by checking the tickbox that says 'Run without custom content'. This signifies that it is probably something to do with Bad CC which is corrupting your game. You explained that you have a lot of store content which did not show up in the game when running without CC, but if I am honest I can't really make many accurate suggestions about that seeing as I do not tend to purchase items from the store, only from the exchange. My guess for now would be that certain store items are classed as CC, therefore temporarily removing them from the game when you check that button. It will probably show up again when you recheck the button.

Regarding the overalls... could you possibly print screen it and attach a photo to this thread so I can see? That way I can compare with mine (I also have Pets EP)and tell you which are CC. Perhaps that message mentioned that you cannot delete it as the kids around town are wearing those articles of clothing. If you could check again it would be a great help. The clothes (if they are not from Pets) obviously installed themselves when you downloaded something new. Again, if you can attach a picture then I'll look into it for you.

Honestly, I don't think it is the V-Shirt which is corrupting your game. When I had the problem it did not freeze or crash my game at all so it is probably some other Bad CC which you have (perhaps not voluntarily) downloaded. I know you won't want to always run your game without CC (especially now store content won't show up) so I will help you as much as I can!

As for now... attach the picture of the overalls so I can look into that for you; you never know, that may be the problem if I can confirm that it is Bad CC. I have some other ideas as to what you can do if this doesn't work! :lol:

P.S: Do you have any mods installed? Take a look in Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/ Mods and look.

Hi, just wanted to give you a quick updated, still working on trying to figure out what CC is causing this, I have deleted a lot of stuff from the exchange (didn't have much, but I believe a lot of them are downloaded with the lots I've downloaded from the exchange and maybe that's where it's coming from). Fortunately I don't use a lot of exchanged items and I purchase more than I download, however, they somehow have anything you purchase from the store listed as CC so when you run the game without it, everything you purchase is gone :( I suppose I could just save the game and then redo my master bath lol....but I'd like to get whatever is causing it off my game.

The thing about the Vamp shirt is, it wasn't there before the game started crashing and the only thing I downloaded was this lot (residential home) and that's when it all started happening and I was lucky enough to get into "plan outfits" and just happened to see this weird thing and clicked on it and it was the Vamp shirt! :evil:

The overalls, I can't put up a picture because they don't show up as overalls lol......all I know is that a pair comes with EP Pets and there are about 3 or 4 others that I can't delete due to kids wearing them. :roll:

I will get back to you later when I have a little more time today, going to do some things then try to delete more CC, but if you have some other ideas, I'm willing to check later and try those first!

Thanks again SO MUCH for taking the time to do this for me xo :D
