I am currently playing on season which I have not long bought and love. Only problem is it just wont save anymore. I have saved my game many time before on seasons but it has just stopped saving for no known reason. I have tried time and time again to save my game on all the different save options bit for some reason it just won't save!
Someone please help. I am getting sick of losing all my hard work.
I have a few things you can try:
1. Look in you Saves folder. If there is a file in there with the extension .bad, that can be the cause. Delete it.
2. Make sure you do not have any thing in the CurrentGame.sims3 folder
3. Remove your Saves folder (put it on the desktop). Start a new game (a new Saves folder will be created) and see if that saves. If it does, one of your Saved games is corrupt. Put your other games back in one at a time and test each one to see if they will save now.
4. This is directly from SimWiki and is a handy way to save your game before you actually Quit the game:
In your game folders there is a folder named CurrentGame.sims3
"This contains the data used in the currently loaded Save game, when The Sims 3 is running. During a save procedure this folder would be renamed as you specified and transferred to the Saves folder.
If at any time, the Save procedure results in an error or is stalled, you can simply copy this whole folder into the Saves folder yourself before exiting the game, and rename it to <Current>.sims3 or something that you'll be able to identify later. It just needs to be different from the actual name of the Save that you loaded". (note In your case, you might want to put that folder with your current game on your desktop first.
After quitting the game, ensure the contents of this folder is empty before starting the next game.
