I ran into a situation very like this over the last couple of days. I have a household of four in which the adults are 1 human male sim who licensed two songs on the guitar, and 1 (female) mermaid conservationist who filmed a documentary and tried to license it. I use MCCC (and no other mods) and IL is the only DLC I have. I saved the lastException file, but the error pops up consistently every morning when the mail is delivered. I was waiting on some postcards and elements and things.

    I am having trouble submitting a reply with an attachment. Let's try this again.

    I'm trying to edit the attachment in.

    Maybe in Chrome? 

    Okay, I couldn't paste the text here because the markup isn't valid, but I dumped it in a draft document here: https://draftin.com/documents/1389598?token=0Dz-BOg5SRUgQaI3U4FeZ9q0I2kb7OThaj-F0Cf2m7SfcsoXdfyQlyfwimWHJkeKGXxWqElDF9sY7HzvhqjdcIw

    Not an ideal way to share information I know, but it's the best I can do right now.

        Okay, I feel a bit silly because the button for posting code is right there in the menu bar and I missed it completely.

        Anyway, here's my update: I created a separate save and split the household into two. Yesterday I played the main save with the human musician and everything went fine, no lastException or anything. Just now I played the household with only a mermaid conservationist, and as soon as she left for work I got this exception:

        </root>

        This is on PC, with just base game and Island Living installed, and my only mod is MCCC, which I triple-checked is up-to-date. For my next experiment, I'm going to try replaying with an empty mods folder.
