Island Paradise Stops Working. [SOLVED]

Okay so i had a huge issue my game wouldn't start it would turn to a black screen when i tried to start it and then it would say not responding and i would have to use task manager to close it. After reading through the forums at other problems with this i eventually solved it after clearing my game cache and doing the DEP thing, and lowering my screen resolution and the game resolution. I even am using the game booster. Now that the game works however it keeps doing this thing i'm not exactly sure what to call it since its not turning off and its not saying not responding. Everything around the sims will move and work sounds music tv's but all the sims stop moving. It only does this when i try to check into the Sparkling Sands Resort. I have stayed in the La Costa Verde resort before so its not all the places. As far as i am concerned the game runs smoothly unless i try to check in there which sucks because i wanted my sims to stay at all the resorts. If you have any solutions to my issue please let me know.



I do think that it might be all my custom content that is making it so hard to play this game. However i NEVER had an issue with playing the sims or getting it to run before i installed Island Paradise. I think its unfair for me to have to delete what makes my game special even more since some of the items i have i cant get anymore since your mediafire account is gone and your new site for downloads doesn't work as well as the mediafire one. I am wondering if there is an issue with maybe the actual game? I want to find a solution that doesn't involve me having to delete my sims games and all my current game settings which is what happens when i delete or rename the sims 3 folder in My Documents.

Hello,

Problems with these resorts are well-known. Some have suggested that this is due to the carreers of the sims (who check in). From what I see, this is NOT related to incompatible mods or custom content.

If you really want your sim to quit the job, then feel free to try that. I have also tried to check in, and my game freezes after a while then. However, I don't recommend quitting the job. At the moment, I can only suggest to you not to use resorts.   This glitch will have to be fixed with another patch.

Thank you for these suggestions i gave both of them a try now Okay So it is the jobs. I will just have to have them quit there jobs before staying in resorts from now on. Do you have any idea what jobs dont make the game freeze when checking into resorts? If it not then i can always use the cheat to get them back to the same level they were at before and just let them quit. Thanks again.
