I found a temporary solution to Error code 12. I am also going to try the mod she mentions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB_FMUR5BNg&index=1&list=PLwW3tq1z2--lnhYTpNmPcasOQJaCfu7ww
Error 12 on 64 bit is rare, but it can happen.
Is your save really big ? Can you check on the RAM usage when you play the game ? If it gets over 3.7 GB, that's the error you'll get cause it' an out of RAM crash you're seeing.
It was pretty big! It was a full neighborhood with lots of houses and residents...etc.
I don't know how to check the RAM usage (I am a bit dumb about those kind of things)...thanks for the info though!!!
Put Sims 3 in Windowed mode then when it runs, click on the task bar and choose the task manager
That should give you the RAM usage for the programs running. Find ts3.exe and see how much it uses

I used to get this back in my Mod-free days when I made the mistake of enabling EA's "story progression" know more commonly as the EA bugfest only to find it overfilled towns way too fast and even caused EC12 to come up frequently on saving.I had to get into NRaas Mods to stop that and other issues I kept having.
NRAAS is where I got a fixed version of story progression from and this one has never caused any problems that weren't my own fault from using the wrong settings on it.
