Stupid
Saving neighbourhoods did not work. Crashed the game utterly. I am going to have to reinstall everything and start yet again from scratch.
Worst part? I didn't think the unistall of Sims 2 Uni removed your EA games folder from the My Documents folder. Thankfully, most of my downloads are backed up on CDs, but I think I may have lost a lot of pretty doomboot-related downloads.
Hello, Mod the Sims 2...
[Edit: 2:15 a.m. I think I got all the important stuff, plus a few other things I didn't even know were there. All to the good, say I, though I'm sure I'm missing some stuff I really liked, plus the new downloads off Sims 2 Resource I picked up today. Oh well. It's the start of the cycle so if I really feel the lack, I can just go download them again, I guess. The worst part about this is that the Frankenbox takes offence to the amount it's being asked to copy off CD (two and a half CDs worth of downloads, all laboriously collected and much loved) so every so often, everything else just crashes. Like the Frankenbox is telling me, "I'm cobbled together out of other bits of people's computers! SPARE ME!" or something. I love anthropomorphising machines ... unless they're yelling at me. The third disc should be easier because there's less on it, but all I can do is hope that the damn game works when I try running it again. Well, at least there's this much to be said for insomnia -- I'm not losing any sleep over this because I wouldn't be getting any anyway.]
