Save error issue in EIG, CAW

Hi, for some reason, after posting this, I couldn't find this posting on my profile. Looks like it removed by unknown reason. so I'm posting again.

I downloaded a custom world. after that, created a new fresh Sims 3 folder by opening the launcher. (No cc, No mods). and then, I worked on s3pe and imported the custom world into CAW for my personal use. After that, selected 'edit in game' in CAS menu, no problem to load edit in town in game. 

I deleted only a big park in edit town mode. then tried to save the game. The screen got dark without saving plumbob icons and it took a few mins. 

After that, I got this error alert. No idea what is showing as I'm not good at understanding these computer related terms.  so I'm wondering what I'm missing and doing something wrong.  All helps are appreciated Thanks.

  • aodoherty​  I replied to your other post, but I guess it was removed as a duplicate.  So here's what I wrote, more or less.

    The errors are all saying the same thing: that the various layers of this world couldn't be saved.  Why that is true is unclear though.  So I would suggest trying with a different world, maybe a blank builder's world to keep things simple.  If that doesn't work either, create a flat map and try saving that, with just a couple items added to a couple layers.

    Thanks for the help. There were a couple of the store venue that I don't own. Would it cause this saving error? 

  • aodoherty​  I don't know, sorry.  I've never used CAW myself and haven't done any research on how it works, or doesn't work as the case may be.  That's why I suggested some experiments.

    If you want, I can move this thread to the Creative Corner section to see whether any world builders recognize the error or have more targeted suggestions.
