Sims 3 Create a World tool Glitch help!

Ok. The strange thing is, when I try to start a new world from the height maps made by The Sims 3, I can't open any of them with an Invalid Height Map: Image is not a PNG.
However on the details, it says it is. The only maps I can get to work are the Tiny Maps, not small, Medium or Large!

Please help me!

Thanks!

Hello,

Have you tried this specific version: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t397-the-sims-3-create-a-world ?

No I hadn't. So I unistalled the old one and installed this one.
At first, I could open the LargeFlatMap100 and I was YAYing. However it said it had crashed. So I re-opened CAW up again only to find the same issue.

I ran across this myself. As far as I could tell it was a RAM issue
(not that I didn't have enough, but that the program wasn't able to use
what it needed).

I found a fix here: www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=477423

(I'm new so it wont let me post a link which I totally get but I'm not spamming so I'm circumventing - please rebuild the link )

Summary in case it disappears in the future:

CAW is a very
resource intensive program. I'm a computer nerd but far from perfect so
anyone who feels the need to correct me, please jump in. By default, a
32 bit program (which CAW is) has access to use 2gb of ram. CAW needs
more.

You can make it large address aware and give it access to 3.5. Do not use this if you have less than 3gb of ram.

As
I said this solved the problem for me, but I still can't import created
maps, the program craps out on me. They really need a 64bit version of
it.

As an aside, many thanks to those providing Sims fixes. They
helped me out a lot which is why i had to register and lend a hand when I
could ;-)
