I've been trying to get The Sims 3 working for the past few days and just when I think I've cracked it I get error code 16, it says to check the read me but I can't seem to find anything in my documents folder.
I'm using 0 mods, the saves are literally less than an hour old. First save goes fine but then when I try to save again, I get error code 16. When I right click on the first save folder it's about 30mb in size, so super super small. I was playing as a single sim household in the standard Riverview.
My PC has 32GB of RAM, i5-12600K CPU and NVIDIA GTX 1070 GPU. I've followed the usual recommendations to get my card recognised which says it's found. My drive has about 300GB free so plenty of space.
Game Options:
Windowed mode, 1920 x 1080
Enable Object Hiding, Enable Animation Smoothing, Enable Advanced Rendering - on
Reflection Quality - off
Edge Smoothing - Low
Draw Distance - Medium
Visual Effects - High
High Detail Lots - 6
Lighting and Shadows - High
Texture Detail - High
Tree Detail - Medium
Sim Detail - Very High
Shop Mode, Lessons, Memories, Interactive Loading Screens - off
Has anyone had this problem before? Ideally, I want to eventually add mods in but right now I'd just like to play it fullstop :D
Looks like the Moderators merged your thread to the thread I was linking to previously just look up to one of puzzleaddicts posts to find a possible fix.
