@sweeyener This issue is usually not cc-related, but rather a problem with the game engine being overworked, or the save being corrupted. As a test, please start a new save and try to send a sim or family traveling. (The rich sims in Sunset Valley work fine.) Be sure to quit to desktop and delete the five cache files in your Sims 3 folder (the one in Documents\Electronic Arts) before testing. For reference, those files are:
- CASPartCache.package
- compositorCache.package
- scriptCache.package
- simCompositorCache.package
- socialCache.package
Let me know whether it works.

@sweeyener Do you have OneDrive enabled and set to automatically sync the contents of Documents with cloud storage? If so, please either disable auto sync or disable OneDrive entirely, at least long enough to test.
If that doesn't help, move your entire Sims 3 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. Launch the game, start a new save, and try to travel with a random family. Please do so right away, as in, within a few in-game minutes of starting the save. And don't use Create a Sim or Build/Buy before going—the idea is to see whether the travel transition works when the game engine hasn't had much work yet.
By the way, you don't need to leave the game on overnight to see whether it loads. In a new save, the travel transition should take less than 10 minutes even on the slowest hard drive. In a long-played and overloaded save, it might take 30-40 minutes, but even that is unusual.

Thank you again for the quick answer! I unistalled OneDrive and moved my Sims 3 folder to my desktop before launching the game. I took a family from Appaloosa Plains and made them travelled to China and it worked!
