For what it's worth, if this all started 2-3 days ago, before the July 10th patch it may serve to think back those two to three days and remember if you did anything to the game or the machine. That this just abruptly happened "out of the blue" something is clearly different. Did you install any other software in that time frame? Checked for malicious software? At this point, since you have tried all the fixes and resets and the CC people assure you their material is fine, then another factor is in play here. Are you the only one who uses the particular device on which you play your game?
Not to make light of your situation which is no doubt frustrating, what you have here is somewhat of a mystery and, well, in the spirit of the venerable Sherlock Holmes, you need to look at the "impossible". Rule that out and what's left, "however improbable, must be true."
EDIT: I must confess I merely skimmed this thread so perhaps I missed it, but before anything else, did you try to restore/run a save made before all this started happening? Kind of like the Windows troubleshooting option of "Last Known Good" run of the programme. If everything runs properly you may have a buggered-up save. But that is a mere wild guess.
@catitude5 I think I read you correctly about "disable patches" If that's the case, "bravo!" I do that as well. I refuse to let the patches run (by launching "offline" until I know the major mods that I depend on to render the game playable for me such as MC Command Centre-- are properly repaired. )
And now that patches seem to be popping up more frequently than once per month, even,-- I wait all the longer. We, myself and my roomie who play separate games on the same machine, did not allow the "Pets" prep patch nor anything thereafter run until late May. By then all the mods and such were fully updated beyond "hotfixes".
