Re: After a couple of minutes of play, the game freezes indefinitely
Hey,
I've got some progress while digging deeper. Haven't solved it yet, but checked some other stuff.
Some other things I've tried:
- Did clean install of the game - nothing changed;
- Did SSD check and virus scan - nothing found;
- Moved the sisters to another lot (still Britechester, but other hood and the private house) - no issues anymore, so it's something particularly strange going on in Foxburry dormitory or in the Foxburry hood;
- Used bb.enablefreebuild cheat and replaced the dormitory for 14 sims to the one with 8 sims, much simpler and without platforms, to see if it helps - still issue is there, so the amount and the mod increasing it are not the issue;
- Found a backup save right before they moved to uni, created a separate sim, and enrolled him in the same Gallery dorm, with mods on. Strangely enough, it had some progress - sims weren't completely and irreversibly stuck this time. Although they still had simulation issues (stood without action, time was going on, needs dropping, but all were staying and complaining, Autonomy is on), reset helped for a couple of hours. I noticed this also happens while they try to wash dishes or throw away the trash (sinks and trash cans are there). That time, I removed mods again, and this helped (removing mods in the save with girls already in uni didn't help). I am looking into which mod causes it, but I am kinda confused that the issue is different, but still there.
So it might be the mod after all, but I am confused why the issue is different and why in the first case with sisters removing mods changed nothing, AND why this does not happen on a clean save. I will try to locate the mod, remove it, and try to move them to the dorm again to see if this happens again.
I'll let you guys know about the updates, but I am sorry in advance, if this was the mod and I wrote the report here :D
Lesson learned, having backup saves is a good thing.
