it might be just me but this morning there was some update for the demo (Wednesday) when i launch it's fine until the loading screen loads up until it gets to the female in the yellow top the music stops and the screen did not move until after 6/7 mins (yes i timed it) the loading screen then proceeded to continue to the rest of the launching once it did finally launch i quit
i always have my antivirus set to silent gaming mode when playing my games just in case it was that i turned that off restarted the computer relaunched the Demo and the same thing happened again
i normally launch origin first then click play on the demo i have even tried to just double click the demo icon to launch the same result upon launching the demo
the next thing i tried i disconnected from the Internet (offline login) and launched the loading screen launched all the way then i quit reconnected to the Internet while still having silent gaming mode off and the same issue the loading screen and music stops in the same spot for about the same amount of time then finally launches
again just to be sure once the demo launched i quit disconnected from the net and it launched all the way no stopping in the same spot the only thing about that is if the demo is launched while the net is disconnected in order for to go online in the demo one must quit the demo as origin gives a message must quit active game to go online i reconnected to the net and tell origin to go online launch the demo and it gets stuck in the same spot again but leaving it running it finally finishes loading
this one in the demo launch once it gets to her the "freeze " happens after the unfreeze it jumps to this sim then finishes loading
on the upside in offline sims can still be created and saved to the library
edit i omitted tried
@RellyJack I had that issue when I was disconnected from the net. I re-connected and I then got that message. After closing and reopening the household I could upload. Does it still not upload for you ?
@rumbutter I get that too since the last update. For me it's only a very short interruption <5 sec.

cheers crin at least i'm not alone i'll try the demo again later today may be it'll sort it's self out if not i'll edit this post with an update either way
edit i stil get the freeze in the intro video but doesn't last as long as the first few times
- 12 years agoI'm away, so I haven't been able to try it since Wednesday. But I had checked turned on off the internet connection, restarted my computer, downloaded sums from the community and tried to reupload them, remake and try to upload, and as of Wed. night nothing worked. I still received the same message. It only worked for half my play session on the first day I had the demo. What do you suggest I try?

FIrst I would check firewall and antivirus if they interfere.
- 12 years agoI did try that because I saw it in one of your other posts. I only use widows defender and windows firewall. I shut both off and went back into the Demo and still got the same error message.

Uh. Have to look into it tomorrow. Late here. There's just not enough solutions around yet.
Did you try googling the message to see if someone else has the same issue ?
- 12 years agoYes, I tried googling but couldn't find a solution.
