Okay, I have an issue that's been plaguing me for a while, and I humbly come before the Immortal Dynasty mods for an answer.
What happened was that my game crashed, and when I pulled up load game screen, all the sims in the picture were seriously glitched out. I asked my sister who also plays sims what it meant, because it was really freaking me out and giving me a bad feeling, and she said that it meant my game was glitched, so I pulled up the backup save file that the game autosaves for you, overwriting my main game file. The autosaved file picked up almost exactly from the last place I remembered saving fully (one of my sims fishing at the graveyard). The issue that I'm having mostly is that I can't remember if I was saving when the game crashed (If I was, it must have crashed right as I clicked the button, because I don't remember the saving plumbomb popping up), along with the fact that since I didn't open it up before I overwrote it with the autosave, since I honestly believed it was broken, does it count as cheating, meaning that I have to start over?
Also, on a side note, if I put a portrait or statue of an immortal in my main house, can it not go into the museum later?
