Game won't load

Hi, I always try to google my problem before I ask for help but i'm stumped this time. I downloaded the last expansion from here days ago, I have not been able to play at all. My game will get stuck at this loading screen perpetually. I have reinstalled the game and try to play without any cc or mods but I still can't make it past this screen. It's really frustrating because I followed all of the instructions like I normally do. Thanks in advance for any assistance

I am having the same **** problem and it's annoying. Except I think this is a in-game problem since you've initialized Sims 3, hopefully someone can find the fix for this bullshit :p

Does anyone have an answer for this? I still haven't gotten to play at all.

Hello,

Try backing up (!) and removing this folder completely: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\

Hi, thank you for responding. I have removed that folder several times, I have also uninstalled and reinstalled about 5 or 6 times. I have no idea what the problem could be. I'm not using any cc at all at the moment and I never had this problem until I tried University expansion. Does it matter that my Late Night expansion was downloaded from amazon?

This is happening with me as well, I have already tried everything listed on the forums before.

I attempted to load in Sunset Valley as well as Moonlight Falls. My green bar does not get past 1/4 full before it crashes.

Hello,

No, that shouldn't make a difference.
Please try this first: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t1171-must-read-how-to-install-the-sims-3-correctly
DO NOT skip any steps and RE-DOWNLOAD both the manual patch and the Ultimate Fix.

If that didn't work either, try GameBooster from: www.iobit.com/gamebooster.php

Please open your own topic, so we can help you. Thank you!

Hi, I have already tried that and i've been using game booster for a few years already. The loading bar while fill almost completely up then stop but the game tips will keep rolling. I've left the game to load while I went out for errands and it still hadn't loaded when I returned home hours later. Sorry to be so troublesome, I just want to play

Hello,

It's OK, we're here to help.
Are you 101% sure that you actually RE-DOWNLOADED both the manual patch and the Ultimate Fix prior to applying them? They get updated regularly, so it's important that you re-download them!

Hi, unfortunately I did try those things but it's still doing the same thing. I am a bit discouraged at this point because I have uninstalled and reinstalled soo many times only to get the same result. Thank you so much for your assistance, you can close this thread now.
