@irishdragon7 Could you please remove MCCC as well, delete the localthumbcache file, let the game create it's own LE (delete the ones you have) and upload the file you get (create a rar file to upload)
Hi crinrict!
I have attached my LE. Just so you are aware, every time I would test the game, I would delete the following: cache folder if present, onlinethumbnailcache folder, avatarcache file, and localthumbcache files along with any LE files. This LE has no mods and I had the game generate a new mods folder. I cleared the cache files (listed above) and cleared the EA app cache before launching.
I hope you are doing well and I thank you so very much for all of the help you provide to all of us users.
- @irishdragon7 Are you using continue or does load also not work ? When you were able to load the save, did you ever try a save as and save under a new name ?
Hi crinrict,
When I first tried to play after the updates, I tried to resume my save but that resulted in an endless loading screen. Since then and after the updates, I am loading the game from the load menu. Because I have been trying different saves to find one to work, that has been the only way I have been getting into the game recently. I also did try a save as when I got into one of the games and then I exited, cleared out the LE and cache files, reloaded and tried to get into the newly created save. Same error occurred, although I do not believe I ever got the endless loading screen with the newly created save. But the LE was still getting generated. I have the original saves all backed up from before the patch, so I will try to just do a save and see if that works. I will let you know my results.
Thanks again!
Okay, so I opened another previous save file (this is the one I use to do a 50/50, so only mods used are those for the creation of the sims themselves, so the lot itself does not have any mods or cc. I do not have my mods in the game for this test. I got the LE on my first entrance into the save. I hit save and exited. I attached the LE to this message. When I loaded into the game again (after clearing the cache files and moving out the LE), there was no LE generated, but my sims both had two birthdays in a row and death appeared, so apparently it sent them to their deaths.
Not sure if this LE will be helpful, but at least you can see another one that my game generates with no mods on a different save from the one I sent you earlier.
I admit with the rapid aging thing, I am nervous about trying this with my other saves. Thankfully, I have the originals all backed up so I can try it, but I would prefer not having to go back to game repair with the save files in the folder again if at all possible.
- @irishdragon7 Do you using custom age settings normally ?
Did you also do the save as again ? Do you see anything happening in the game ?
Also, always make sure to turn off your game and restart before trying stuff on another save game.
