Well, I'll have a go here too.
1. Are you using any Custom Content or mods ?
- Yes, Twallan's mods and CC from the store and TSR.
2. If you are using mods, are you using any of the 'big ones' like Awesome Mod or Twallan’s mods
- The answer is up there, but yes.
3. If you're not using mod, did you never use them or did you take them out for the EP (as you are supposed to do)
- I removed my whole mods folder, which also has most of my cc since I unpack most of my sims3packs and turn them into .package files. Also Emptied my Downloads folder, DCCache and DCBackup (this did not prevent the issue - I even removed the complete 'The Sims 3' folder in my documents and made the game generate new ones - same issue)
4. Did you update the mods you put back with a compatible version ?
- I did not update my mods yet, as far as I know Twallan is still working on the updates, and I did not put them back in game yet.
5. Do you have Supernatural or just the Patch ?
- Just the patch
6. Which Patch Level are you at ?
- 1.38
7. Did you start a new game for Supernatural or are you playing an existing ones ?
- Opened an excising one first, unplayable, started a new world, also not able to play.
8. What town are you currently playing ? EA or Custom ?
- EA Town. First (currently playing one) was Riverview, second one was Appaloosa Plains
9. What is your Operating System (Mac, XP, Vista, Win 7)
- Windows 7 with a i7 2600 k - Radeon 6850 videocard 8GB 1600 RAM
Now for my actual issues :
- Can't open the options menu
- When I load an existing game I load in but am unable to interact with the game, game won't let me open the extended part of the UI (with the mood bars) Wishes don't show up, moodlets aren't visible
- Go into buy mode and the catalogue won't load at all, it won't even open. all I see are the icons for the different shop modes (by room, by object, fam inv. and collections)
- build mode DOES work
- Trying to start a new town and open an existing family ended up in just staring at the town view with no interface (and the game supposedly trying to open the family)
- Create a Sim won't open
Basically my entire game is broken. As I said above I tried removing the complete sims 3 folder and that didn't yield any results either.
I personally don't think there is an 'easy' fix for this :(
