@bxbytrishx Try adding NRaas MasterController if you don't have it already and running a town reset before your sim leaves. Click on City Hall and select NRaas > MC > Town Options > Reset Everything. This may take a few minutes to run, depending on the size of the world and the speed of your system.

It's still worth reducing the in-game graphics as well before traveling. That can lower the demands on the game engine to a significant extent. You can of course reimpose your usual settings afterwards, if the travel transition does in fact work.

If the University world has previously been loaded in this save, you could try removing the .nhd file for the world. It's possible the current instance of the world is corrupt in some way; deleting the file would force the game to spawn a new one when your sim traveled. The file will be in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Saves\[your save name.sims3], along with a number of other files containing save data. (Don't delete those other files.) It's easy enough to put the file back if this doesn't help.

If this doesn't help either, do you get any scripterrors in your Sims 3 user folder? If so, it's worth taking them to the NRaas site and asking for advice. A scripterror might describe a specific problem that you could address.

Hi, I deleted everything from my Sim's family inventory and his own inventory. Went in offline mode, and turned off memories. Whenever I install a mod I make sure I delete the cache files, I am able to travel my Sim to university but once I select a house for him to live in, the game doesn't load the UI.
