Sims 2 legacy - suddenly crashing no error message
I have been playing my legagcy game without issue since october. Then suddenly yesterday, it randomly crashed with no error message. Yesterday, it was during game play. Today, it is whenever i try to go into any household. I can load to neighbourhood but not beyond. I do not have any new mods. I think my computer may have done some random update that I didn't approve. I am assuming it is due to this but I have no idea how to fix it. I tried chaptgpt but it has been beyond useless. Anyone have any ideas?Sims 2 Legacy crash with no error code
The game randomly crashes with no warning and no error code associated with it. There is no lagging before the crash it just closes itself. This will happen within minutes or opening the game, after 20-30 minutes, or after 1-2 hours. It gets worse if I try to open the game again after it crashes. This is what I have tried to fix it but nothing has worked: No mods or CC installed Disabled “Optimizations for windowed games” Turned shadows off Regenerated Sims 2 user folder Forced NVIDIA GPU usage in Windows graphics settings Added Windows Defender exclusions Tested administrator mode Applied 4GB Patch to Sims2EP9.exe Installed DXVK (d3d9.dll, dxgi.dll) Switched from NVIDIA Game Ready Driver → Studio Driver Closed ASUS/Armoury Crate background services Switched ASUS GPU mode from Hybrid/Standard → Ultimate (dGPU only) Deleted Sims 2 cache/thumbnails files Added Sims 2 profile in NVIDIA Control Panel Capped FPS to 58 Set Power Management Mode → Prefer Maximum Performance Enabled VSync Repaired the game through EA App removed Sims 2 folder and created a new one This has been happening for months. I did not have this issue when it first came out, but after the last 2 updates this started happening.
Sims 2 Legacy resolution scaling off
Hi all, I have had issues with the game's resolution being incorrect and being unable to get my in-game resolution settings to stick once the game was restarted, but with today's patch the resolution is still off (game is sized wrong and is cut off to the right side of the screen), and additionally the resolution options are grayed out in the settings. I have repaired and reinstalled my game, but this did not fix the issue, any ideas what it could be? Screenshots attached and PC Specs.

Hello, When a launch the game, all the neighborhoods are completely missing and the game is empty. I already checked my Documents folder the game doesn't create any save folder at all. I have already tried to reinstall the game, run it as an administrator, and use the repair option in the EA app, but nothing works. No folder is being created on this computer. Could you please help me fix this ? Thanks
Game Crashes (without warning or error message)
Anyone else finding that their game will crash without warning after the new update? In the past whenever I've experienced the game crashing it has always come up with some variation of an error message and then I have to close it. This time the game loads generally fine (other than being a bit slow when The Sims 2 loading screen is displayed), it allows me to pick a world and start playing with a household and then without warning the screen will go black and the game shuts down. Then I'm left with the EA App still loaded like nothing had happened. This only started happening when I updated the game yesterday.
