1. Are you using any CC or mods ?
NO
2. If you are using mods, are you using any of the ‘big ones’ like Awesome Mod or Twallan’s mods
No
3. If you’re not using mod, did you never use them or did you take them out for the EP (as you are supposed to do)
Never installed mods
4. What EPs do you own
Sims3, World Adventure, Out Door Living, Ambitions, and Generations installed in that order ALL as a fresh install.
Please note we had to use the Download manager 5 in order to download because the new download manager will NOT download anything no matter how many times I have uninstalled, reinstalled, and patched.
Our only resolution was to manually patch everything.
5. What patch level (game version) are you currently at. I need the version of your base game. You find it in your launcher when you hover over the basegame icon.
8.0.152.011017
6. Some basic Info about your Computer (please NO DxDiag, can’t read them anyways). Processor, Amount of RAM, Graphic Card and Operating System (Mac, Win 7, Win XP, …)
3.2ghz, 8gb Ram, NVidia GForce 9800 GT, Windows XP 64
7. Did you start a new game for Generations or are you playing an existing ones
Tried existing game first and it had faces down the left side of the screen with no access to build mode, options, etc. Tried again with a new character and the same thing. Uninstalled Generations and tried again with the same result. Appears to be an issue with the update.
