I just went to go on The Sims 2 and continue with my legacy but it WON'T LOAD. I've never had a single problem with Sims 2 on this computer, and I've had it since August last year.
Basically I click on my Sims 2 icon, the box appears where it tells you all the EPs you have and what's available for download etc, and I click 'Play' as usual, and the mouse changes into the CD sign that shows it's loading as normal, but then NOTHING HAPPENS. I've tried about 7 times now, nothing. I restarted the computer too, still nothing.
What can I do?! Any suggestions? :'(
I clean the disk and it said something like 'Unable to load file or file is corrupted...'
Oh dear. I really don't want to have to re-install again... {unsure}
I checked my Sims 1 game and that loaded fine and dandy, so it's just something to do with my Sims 2.
that really sucks cassie!!!
are you using the latest EP
stupid question but you never know
OMG I'VE DONE SOMETHING TERRIBLE! I CRIED! :'(
I thought I'd take Sims 2 Apartment Life off in case that was the problem, and then once it was uninstalled I tried running Sims 2 again, this time on my Freetime disk. But now Belladonna Cove has gone... and that;s where my legacy lived. I forgot.
So now I've lost everything, all 8/9 generations I worked so hard on. Chrystal and Frankie from 'Your Longest Generation' thread no longer exist and neither do all their family before them. I'm upset I've given up on Sims 2 now, forget it, I'm taking it off the computer and never want to play it again as far as I'm concerned. Not until Sims 3 has come out. No way am I beginning all over again on my legacy. I loved all of the gens and it wouldn't feel the same beginning again, and I'll never reach my goal of 20 gens before Sims 3 anymore.
The only thing I was smart enough to do was save my Downloads (if you take an EP off, your downloads go with it). Kind of useless though, wasn't it?
So yeah... RIP Sims 2 and RIP my Legacy.
*hugs*
its ok cassie
i dont think you should take it off though
that really really sucks cassie
but what about your challenge to get all those generations
I was really enjoying going through all the generations but I don't want to start again. It sounds lame but I was so attached to those Sims and that legacy. I HATE my computer. Why wouldn't it load in the first place?
As for not taking Sims 2 off the computer... sorry but it's deleting as I type.
That's horrible! I've done things similar to that where I erase large mansions that I've worked on for weeks and weeks. And me, being a perfectionist, I give up if I've lost everything. I don't try to recreated.

Well, only a 100+ more days until TS3!

Oh, I'm sorry Cassie! It really stinks how that tends to happen at the worst possible times. At least TS3 comes out soon.
