So far I've tried the workaround fix by deleting the lots, I've tried no CC, I've tried the trick to make a backup of my sims 3 folder in documents to see if it's user files, I've tried launching without the launcher... I still keep crashing as soon as I try to actually play a household.
Not a single thing has worked.
Going crazy here... the ONLY thing that I think has made a difference at all was when I disabled edge scrolling... it took a little longer to crash after panning over the apartment.
I've tried everything on page one of this thread as far as crashing is concerned aswell.
If anyone has any other ideas, I would REALLY appreciate it. I just want to play the game I payed for.
