Hi,
I've been reading this forum for a few days and I've tried a few things out and I was able to get a few hours of play last night. I put The Burbs into a lot and started editing their house before the game crashed (with the standard "this application has crashed. it will now terminate") and now I can't do anything except load neighbourhoods. Here's what I've tried so far:
* Re-installing the game
* Playing in Window mode
* I've downloaded and added the Video and Graphics card sgr. files into both config folders.
* I read one thread to do with the 4GB patch but I don't know where that needs to go.
* The game isn't being played in Compatibility mode and I'm running it as administrator from the desktop shortcut.
*I was able to fix the "Not found in database" line on the config. text file.
*I've tried lowering graphics to the lowest settings.
I should mention that graphics wise, I don't have any issues. No pink flashes, no shadows underneath Sims. I can get reflections on the water in Plesantview and the trees look very clear. The graphics are pretty good really. When I was playing the game I had the graphics to full effect with no lag issues whatsoever. I don't know if that helps in any way.
I was thinking of maybe restoring to an old update, currently I think I have the 1709 update, (I've done so in order to get The Sims 3 working back when I was using a CPU to play the game) but I'm not sure if that will help. If anyone can give me some tips or take a look at my config file that would be great! =)
