My savefile cannot process through week one, it always crashes around 7 pm sunday. I only have nraas (overwatch, master controller and error trap) and smooth patch mods installed. Removed them but the same thing still occurs. It also appears to happen in every save file i create. Also tried uninstalling the game, but it didn't help.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
banshee1917 Do you have a scripterror with a time stamp from exactly when the crash happens, or a real-time minute or two before? I don't care about the ones that generate when you first load the save—they're probably correction logs and/or notes about a routing error that only happened because a sim was en route somewhere when you reloaded.
If you do find such a scripterror, open it with Notepad (not a browser), copy the text, and paste it into a reply here. I'm not sure I'll know what the problem is, but I can at least look.
If you don't find a scripterror from that time, add NRaas DebugEnabler, and 5-10 sim-minutes before the crash is going to happen, click City Hall and select NRaas > DE > Options: City Hall > Dump Alarms. This will create another scripterror listing all the "alarms" that trigger going forward, which is helpful for trying to figure out what's happening that's causing the crash.
Take this scripterror (the one from Dump Alarms) to the NRaas site and ask someone to look at it. You can create a new thread, then drag and drop the file itself into the window where you're writing your post. I could in theory look at this too, but in practice, I'm probably not going to know what I'm looking at, at least to the extent that I can figure out what's broken.
puzzlezaddict Yes I play in Sunset Valley and I don't get on-screen notification when this happens. The game freezes and just crashes. I installed the mods pack and nothing changed. The same problem is present.
And Yes! There is script error file in my sims 3 documents.
banshee1917 What world are you playing in, and does this happen in Sunset Valley? With the NRaas mods present, do you see an on-screen notification about a scripterror before the crash? Do you see a scripterror in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3 with a time stamp from when the game crashed? You'd likely see one or two from when you loaded the save, but those wouldn't be relevant.
Please put back ErrorTrap, Overwatch, and MasterController, as they make troubleshooting easier in cases like this.
