Hi, I don't now what to do anymore, I had tried my best so far to not make this post (because I know it may be annoying), but I need some help here :cry:


I was installing some packages, as usual, then I saw this tutorial (http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files), so I started to follow these steps. I also did everything from 'Old way to New way' tutorial (http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Old_Way_to_New_Way) (except that I didn't found 'resource.cfg' and 'd3dx9_31.dll' files, so I didn't delete them).

I downloaded the SuperPatcher, and it said that it was already installed. Them I kept going through. When i finished, I clicked at the icon of Sims 3, but it didn't work, appeard a message that I had installed something that wasn't updated. Then I tested ALL the packages, until I deleted some sliders mods, then it worked. But, when I finally was going to play, the game crashed when was loading the neighborhood.


I hope somebody could help me, if is not too much to ask. And sorry for the bad english, I'm brazilian.
Thank you ;)

After you deleted the sliders, did you clear the cache?

No, I deleted the cache before delete the sliders, I will try that right now, thankss :D

@Edit
It didn't work. The game is still crashing at the neighborhood loading page :(

OK, it is possible that there is more CC that is causing trouble. Have you tested without any CC at all?

If so, try the next step in the Game Problem FAQ. ( http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Sims_3_Game_Problem )

Yes, it was, but I didn't found out which was the one that was causing trouble. I deleted all of them, except the hairs xD
Thank you for helping me!

That was probably a bit extreme, since it is possible to track down the bad CC with the 50/50 method, and most of it was probably still good. But if you didn't want to spend the time on tracking down the bad CC and you are happy without the CC that you deleted, that works just as well. :)

I'm glad you can enjoy your game again.
