I need help. My game gave me an error this afternoon, error 12 or 13, I can't remember. Now when I look at the saves (where we have our hundred hood with one playble family) it says


Mitchell.sim3.BAD
arquivo. BAD
41.987KB


*Mitchell is my family
**arquivo = archive in English

I know there is a way to save my hoodbut I can't remember how.
Can you help me, please? Thank you

Delete the .bad file. Rename your Mitchell.sim3.backup to Mitchell.sim3 and start the game. Save as soon as your hood loads to make another backup file. You'll experience some data lose depending on how often you save though. I think error codes 12 and 13 are two of the most annoying bugs in the game. I get them far too often but occasionally defragmenting the saves folder seems to help a little bit.

Thank you!! I'll try that


Edit: I lost some data, but it was better than losing everything

Thank you again
