The trouble I had with The Sims 3 Late Night
Hello peeps, in the last blog I wrote, I was debating on buying the Sims 3 and finishing a paper. Well I finished that paper and have sinced graduated from college with my bachelor's degree. Yeah for me! Anyways, I also bought the Sims 3 and all the expansion packs. Now her is the trouble that I experienced with the sims Late Night and I hope that this helps someone or maybe it won't.
So I bought The Sims 3 Late Night and loaded it onto my computer! That's when the trouble started. It seems that the new update for the game has done something to the sims 3 game launcher. Everytime I click out of it or click to play the game I get an error message that the launcher is not responding. So that was my first problem. Once I finally started to play the game it would crash after a minute. By this time I am frustrated and angry that I bought a game that I couldn't play. I decided to unistall all of my sims 3 games and the original sims 3 to see if that would fix it. It didn't and I can't even count on my fingers how many times I unistalled all my games and reistalled them again. By this point I am hoping mad so I go online and research and fin out that there are many people that are having the same problems with the game that I am having. I look up ways to fix the problem through recommendations that other people used to fix their game and still nothing works. I finally try one more fix, which was updating my graphics driver but it was still having problems. At this point I have given up. I turned off my computer and didn't turn it on for a couple of day.
One the third day after I had purchased the sim 3 late nigh I decided that it was never going to work, so I was going to unistall everything, however, I decided that I would try to play my game one more time and guess what.... It worked! As soon as I went in to play some random family I saved imideately, exited out, restarted the whole thing then went back in to play that family and I no longer had anymore problems playing the game. I still get the error about the sims 3 launcher but I just click out of the error message and play my game.
After going through all that I went through, I figure one of those things I used to fix it worked ( though I'm leanging more towards the updating of my driver) so now I love the new expansion pack and have been playing it nonstop since it stoped crashing. So like I said in the beginning I hope this helps anyone who may have had trouble with the new expansion like I did, if nothing else know that you were not alone. :)
Happy Simming Everyone,
