Okay so the town was going fine, a little freezing but none more than usual on my game. Then while I was making a new sim in CAS my screen went completely black. The computer was still on, I couldn't get the screen back. Anyone else experience this?
Most likely you overheating. This world is doublesized SV in a number of lots and sims so your processor and memory is highly used. Lowering settings usually work. If not - I really don't know then - I only have game act strange while in CAS when I download and edit Sim with store items I don't have, and UC don't have any.
@katluvr - I saw your comment about Cooper family in Swap Shop and it was clear they will live in your town house! Glad it worked
@Esther - I did had to set their relationships but it was a pleasure to do so - having them in UC along with other fantastic families is precius. About your card/PC and settings - poor graphic card means low graphic settings but you having 6GB of RAM will make up to it! I usually try to play it calm and not shift around too much, specially on 3.speed and on admin/mod hills - large lots with tons of objects loading at the same time will cause the lagging.
I was very carefull to use all the tips I could find to make the performance optimal, from organizing layers in CAW to marking unroutable areas along the grid. And many other things too.
@Chuckles if you want more details about inhabiting worlds PM me
And I can't tell you all how happy I am and all the top secret team for sharing it with you all. There is a street lamp I would move now and few more details, but with such an attitude it will never be really done - Hope we will update it with Show Time too!
Also, you'll notice there are only few flame fruits in the town, one deathflower and no money trees and life fruits, also no WA skilling objects or even tomb objects. No LTR's and that dynasty/legacy lot is priced as the one in SV - it has increased price comparing to regular lots that size. And there are skill books in a library LOL. There is just the right number of special spawners
One more about EP's and SP's - SP's don't matter, we didn't use TLSP Rabbitholes so no big changes will hapen, most likely it will all get replaced with similar objects you have. EP's are different, and before Pets you were able to load the world (and lot) with objects from EP you don't have and game would replace it but after, crashes are almost inevitable. That is why we provided the save file which is just the world loaded without any family selected. That way you'll get the message that some objects are replaced but it will work, even with just a base game - I checked it myself. Of course, it looks sort of wierd with oak trees instead of palm trees from WA but it works.
Are the pet spawners in world or on lots?
Only few lots have any spawners at all, and Pet spawners are only placeable on lots - still not available in CAW as others are. However, they do appear near other spawning points, like in all prePets worlds.
