Hello and thank you for this amazing program
I'll give you a back story here as i'm a bit confused.
When I got ST i was experiencing staggering/freezes and crashes in SS, but as many people seemed to have issues i didn't pay much attention. I noticed though that I usually crashed after a successful simfest , which by the way were rare for me , as they would mostly reset for some reason. Looked it up and found out Twallan's SP was messing with simfests. I took the mod out and went ahead to update and then test my world for ST. No staggering or freezing at all here. I assumed that the world was more stable than SS and moved on.
2-3 days ago a friend of mine told me that with the new version of SP, she was no longer having issues with simfests. So i plop version 218 in my game to test it out. staggering and freezing came back, and I finally get a hard freeze and a crash during a simfest. I immidiately blame game memory leaks and SP pushing the issue more, as at the time of the crash i had 88% memory usage ( computer with Norton Internet Securty , Norton Utilities (idle),Vista side bar, several backround tasks running and opera with about 5 tabs open uses about 25-30% tops - when the game is not running)
Then I come across this program.. And all hell breaks loose in my head...
As soon as it run the log file it tells me that several of my EPs and SPs are not up to date...How is this possible? Even if i missed a patch ( i know i never did) I got the latest SUPERpatch from launcher. I know that at some point we were getting patches that patched only the latest EP/SP and base game, so maybe something there went wrong. If i Had LN for example when someone else had OLS his OLS would be patched and mine wouldn't because the patch would patch my LN only.
I then save the file in a txt and go to bed. however after checking the file again today I noticed something that didn't show up in the program yesterday. Besides listing my "missing " patches, as a crash reason it instead has [WARNING CUSTOM CONTENT].. So what the heck is wrong? is it SP? or my patches?

I'm trying to gather as much info as possible on these issues , so i can give more info to Twallan, if this is indeed an SP issue
