Sims 3 launch

★★★ Newbie

So basically , sims 3 loads. Usually it loads to where I can pick a family sometimes it doesn’t but no matter what family I pick or if I make a new one it gets stuck at like 85% done, I’ve deleted cache files and tried to play without custom content ( that just turned the screen black) and I really like sims and I’m upset Frown

Re: Sims 3 launch

@LiddleLolly  Try dragging your entire TS3 game folder out of Documents and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game again, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  Can you start a new game now?  If so, you can move your saves and other content from the old folder to the new one, a few files at a time.  Test after moving each batch, just to make sure the game still works.  If it doesn't, you'll know that one of the files you just moved is corrupt, and you can split that last batch and test again until you find the culprit.

 

If you can't load a new save even in a clean game folder, please run a dxdiag and attach the results to a post here.
