Hey everyone
First off, I searched and there is this poster in the archive who had the exact same problem but apparently they did not manage to solve it :
http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=261289

Here is the problem : the game runs fine, I played on a particular lot a lot, never had any problems, and now it won't load.
The game always crashes at the exact same time, i.e. at the very middle of the loading bar. I tried moving my family out and entering the lot in build mode, and it crashed at the same time. When I try to package the lot, the game crashes.
Every time I get the usual
"The application has crashed. The application will now terminate."

Every other lot loads fine, and when I put my family on another load it loads fine.
I do not have any custom content whatsoever, I tried removing the SavedSims folder anyways, but that did not help.

I realize this is very likely just a corrupted lot, but if so can anything be done so as not to lose the tombstones and rewards? Any idea of a fix is welcome, however extreme (buy another EP, start praying to a particular God, anything)

I hope I did not do anything wrong with this post, and I will post my spec if you think it could be useful but I doubt it since I did not change anything before the crash started happening, and the other lots are still fine.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry. Something on that lot is bad. Do you have a clean copy of the lot in your bin?

Nope, I know I should have made back ups but I did not...

I had a similar problem with the really big house near the water in Pleasantview, and with the Delarosa household in Bluewater no matter which hood it was attached to. It turned out a piece of CC was interfering with a maxis object and when i took out the CC, everything worked perfectly. Note that I had never loaded either of those two lots so they were still pure maxis when they crashed. So try taking out your Downloads folder and see if the lot will load. If it does, then you just have to ferret out the offending CC.

I tried moving my lot to just another area on the road and it worked.
