[OPEN] Game Crashing when Placing Retails/Lots with mannequins [ Edited ]

[crinrict]

@SandyBee3 Could you please make a separate bug report for these ? Seems something else is going on here and it's best to keep them separate.

Thanks. I've merged your posts from the mannequin thread over here. Also merged a post from GD

@crinrict When you tried to place the Lot yourself, did the game crash too ?

[crinrict]

@SandyBee3 same as for you. I was able to place it (I was also able to turn it) but when I placed another on top (even when bulldozing it before), the game crashed.

@crinrict Than this really is a game bug. I hope EA releases a fix for that fast. It’s already 2 months. Maybe they don’t know what causes it yet either.

@SandyBee3 There have been lots that crashed the game for a while now (longer than the reports) but I haven't paid attention if those were mannequins lot or not.

The Grand Movie Theater crashed my game as well when trying to put another lot on top of it.

Perhaps it is remarkable that in my case the crash was introduced by a series of music dropouts. Didn't we have a bug with sound-related crashes in certain situations when Snowy Escape was released? 

PS: The crashing may also be caused by a lack of RAM. I have only 8 MB

@alanmichael1 8MB ?? You mean GB ? me too, i never had any issues playing the game.

@SandyBee3 Yes of course, 8 GB!! I have played around a bit with the Movie Theater and it always crashes in different ways. Sometimes I can place it, sometimes not, sometimes it even crashes while bulldozing. The creator themselves issued a warning that the lot may have too many items, that's why I thought of RAM. That may also be the thing with the mannequins, perhaps the amount of outfits and accessories plays a role.

@alanmichael1 I have 32 GB and it crashed mine too. Did you monitor how much RAM it used ?

I've done this and the game still crashes. I've tried repairing my game. I've tried new and old saves. I don't know anymore. I have no mods or cc.
