Final Hallows update soon
Nov. 30th, 2009 07:56 amCross-posted to DW and LJ.
As some of you may have noticed in the main Sims 2 comm on LJ, I'm having what's turning out to be major problems with my TS2 game. There appears to be some corruption to core game files so I am going to have to uninstall and re-install. Because my motherboard is also throwing IRQ errors and occasionally giving me the BSOD, I don't know if I will be able to re-install once I uninstall.
I have played through about 3 or 4 days of the next week of the Hallows. Not enough for a full update but it's enough to post SOMETHING. It's been slow going due to the heat we've been experiencing so I haven't been able to play every day like I had been planning. What I will do today is grow up the Hallows kids using cheats. I already extracted all 4 of them before my game corrupted so there are no worries with that - I have the files necessary for them to be passed on and they are fine and unaffected by anything happening right now. This morning I made a backup of the Hallows hood so if I am able to re-install, I can keep playing and pretend like the forced growing up never happened. If I can't re-install, then at least we have some sort of conclusion to the generation.
This means that my status with regard to the Landon round robin and my joint legacy with Nadsy (on LJ) at the moment is "uncertain". I know I could have just uninstalled and tried to re-install and thrown my hands up in the air if unsuccessful and said "oopsies" without clogging up your friends and reading lists, but I thought I'd post about it since any disasters my PC is experiencing at the moment affect quite a few people due to me being in so many joint projects.
