so that's why

Hmm, yes- it seems that 2GB RAM is not enough since Pets. Perhaps you could upgrade your hardware, you can check on the computer Support forum if you want to research that.

pedro_ve, the latest version of CAW is now for the 1.29 Patch, so you need to update your game.

Each time a new patch is released, EA update the CAW tool.
http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title...elp:Patch_Table

Current version is 1.13.7, try patching and redownloading.

I don't have Pets.

Thank you !

Cocoli- you need the latest version, so just go download it from the EA website.

Thank you again ! I've already tested this one out yesterday and it didn't work : the start up screen flashed before it shut down without giving an error message. I've already tried running the application as administrator (didn't work) and changing the DEP (didn't work either). I'm going to try to make the application Large Adress Aware and see if that works. Hope it will !

Edit : So I made it LLA and it didn't work. As a last resort I tried the fix given on this thread and it still doesn't work for me ! I don't know why it doesn't work because before I updated to 1.26 - then to 1.29 - it worked pretty well. I'm wondering though if the latest version available is really the one I should get as I don't have Pets. Won't CAW try to find Pets objects in my game folders ?

Cocoli, could you please let me know which EPs and Sps you do have?
Lab Assistant
#44 Old 11th Feb 2012 at 10:24 AM
Sorry for the delay. Errr... I've already said which EPs and SPs I have but just in case here they are :

World Adventure : 2.17
High End Loft Stuff : 3.13
Ambitions : 4.10
Late night : 6.5
Generations : 8.0

That's all I have. My Base game version is 1.29. Thank you again !

You didn't specify whether that was a complete list in your previous post!

As you don't have Outdoor Living, Pets or Master Suite, you'll probably find that the latest CAW versions don't work (see table in first post). Try version 1.11.10.

Oops. Sorry but I thought that it was obvious. And obviously it was not. Okay thank you I will try this one later and give some feedbacks. ^^

I was double checking, since the SPs are really relevant here.

#48 Old 14th Feb 2012 at 11:28 AM
Here are some feedbacks : I have installed CAW version 1.11.10 and it did the same thing : the opening screen flashes before shutting down without any error message. I tried disabling the DEP but I can't, I made the application LLA but it didn't change a thing, I tried running the application as administrator and it didn't work either. So far the CompatVersion and the worldBuilderCompatibilityVersion are the same in my Default.ini games files and in my CAW file. Any ideas ?

Hmm, try the 1.11.12 version perhaps? For the DEP, just leave it on the default setting- 'Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only'.

OK so if I have JUST base game and world adventure; update 2.6.11. do I use the second one or top one on the chart above?

I own others but not installed.
