sims 2 legacy collection randomly crashes mid-game.
Hello, The Sims 2 Legacy Collection runs smoothly and fine for me, with and without cc and mods. But after an hour or so (sometimes less) of gameplay, it will randomly exit the game without saving. No glitching, no pop-up from windows and no error logs in any of the files to help me find the issue either. I've tried running as administrator, configuring the settings to windows 7, applying the 4gb patch, removing custom content/mods, but nothing seems to fix this error. It is frustrating losing my progress and then opening the game back to see it running smooth and fine. Until it inevitably exits the game again. Are there any solutions to this?
EA App Removing Sims 2 and The Sims
Is anyone else having issues with the EA App and them completely removing the Sims 2 Legacy packs and the original Sims? I have added a screenshot of what EA says. I paid money for this. I'm upset. I can't find anything online about them removing them. The only platform I can play is on Steam but i would have to buy everything all over again. Can anyone provide some insight on what to do or what is happening? #EAApp
Sims 2 Legacy Windowed Mode
Hey guys. I bought Legacy version when it came up and it ran so beautifully. A few little hiccups but nothing too big. Then they started updating it. And then they updated it again, and now it is stuck in windowed mode and there's no way to change that. The UI is so small my old eyes simply can't read it and because it's forced into permanent windowed mode I can't change the resolution. I can do the alt+enter thing, but then it's in a windowed, window mode and although the UI is bigger I want it to be fullscreen. Now, when it's in this new windowed mode I can change the resolution, but that really doesn't matter when I can't make the whole thing be actually fullscreen. Has anyone come up with an actual fix for this? I'm really frustrated as I've waited almost a year for them to fix this and they haven't. Help would be great, it runs much faster than my Ultimate Collection, loading is quicker and the graphics are nice and smooth. Thanks.
Force Max FPS to 60?
I've noticed when I have the camera locked to a sim as they move around it's very jittery compared to how smooth it used to be. I checked the in-game FPS and it's all over the place mostly in the 200s. I attempted to fix this within Nvidia Control Panel and setting Max Frame Rate to 60, but the game is not enforcing this. Also the Refresh Rate box in-game is empty and the game is stuck in borderless windowed. Even if I alt enter it then goes to regular windowed mode, but Refresh Rate is still empty. Is there anyway to force the Max Frame Rate?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 Collection - Sims won't drive cars.
Been having trouble with cars the came been not allowing me to enter or use it to go to work.. it works only when the sim sits down in the car first but it can mess with the flow.. i removed mods i added mods it same results i am having trouble figuring out which mods are causing it. i removed each file few by few when i thought i found it it worked for like... a small bit... but then it reverted back.. so i reverted back my mods to what i had it at when it was still working normally and the results are the same. Mods Includes Story Progression Occult Mods like the one that makes ghost playable through trait in inventory.. the batbox and such. And cosmic mods like scene fit and well car meshes... i been having trouble pinpointing it even after trying "What Caused This" and Similar. i am unsure what i am missing removing mods and such i still getting it even with maxis made cars it's not isolated to one neighborhood but all.
Sims 2 Legacy Crashing - No warning/explanation
I bought the Sims 2 Legacy as soon as it dropped and have been playing it since then with very, very few issues. I mean, the Sims 2 and crashing go hand in hand, but it was never a problem that made it unplayable. You play for hours, you make sure you save, and then once in a while the program must terminate ya know? What can ya do! However, about a month ago, my game started randomly crashing by literally just disappearing as I was playing. The screen would just go away to show my desktop as if I minimized it and that's that, no warning or explanation. This had happened a few times since I started playing in February of 2025, but it would be after hours of gameplay and then I'd just restart it and it would play fine again for a long time until it decided it had had enough and closed again and I took that as a sign that I needed to walk away anyway. Unfortunately, it has now started doing it within 20 minutes, then when I restart the game, it crashes again after 2-5 minutes. I just tried to play today after giving it a break for a week and it crashed within thirty seconds of me loading into a lot. Obviously this makes it unplayable which is genuinely devastating. I know that I'm not the only person who has brought this up or is having this type of issue, but I have tried some of the suggestions to no avail. Do you think uninstalling and reinstalling would help? I do have mods but I've never had issues with them before and I've had them installed since I started playing back in Feb of last year. Someone mentioned that CC furniture specifically could cause this issue? Idk but I'm at my wit's end and any help or advice or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!
Error with Neighborhood Stories
I noticed The Belladonna Cove only generates 6 pages in Legacy Collection: Belladonna Cove should have 12 pages as per the Disc/Ultimate version: Furthermore, the Riverblossom Hills Neighborhood Story is broken in the Legacy Collection: Appreciate it if we could fix this issue. Have a nice day! :)
