Sims 3 crash
I tranfered my sims game from my laptop to my new desktop. For some reason my game keeps crashing after playing the game for a while (maybe around 30 minutes?), I have a very powerful PC so I'm not s...

Thank you for these responses I appreciate it. So I took the mods out instead of nrass and other ones I needed because it would break the game if I removed it. The game actually crashed not long after it loaded, I went into map view and it crashed. That is something I did notice, all the random crashes happened when the camera was moving (going into map view or switching to a different sim). I was watching the rap usage, when the game launched it was at around 2 gb of ram and crept up as I played until it crashed. Also my save is in Hidden Springs.
@MisterSidternay How much RAM was the game using the last time you looked before it crashed? 2 GB is fine, and 3.0 GB should be fine, but 3.5 is the beginning of the danger zone.
Separately, what other mods are you using that you can't remove?
It never reached 3 gb, max I saw was like 2.5. The other mod that can't be removed is kinky world.
@MisterSidternay That mod might be the issue here. It's known to cause save corruption and also to be incompatible with a number of NRaas mods, in various ways. I don't know that you can fix the save from here, although there's no harm in trying.
I would suggest though that if you're willing to play without it (and I know the alternatives aren't quite the same), that you use a new Sims 3 folder to do so. I've read previous reports of KW corrupting user folders and affecting new saves even after it's removed, although that may not be an issue anymore. Still, it's simple enough to switch folders, and transfer your Store content if necessary, when you're starting a save that's not going to use the mod.
But I had the same mod folder with kinky world on my laptop and I had no crash issues, how would it have problems on a much more powerful computer?
