Default After I installed this EP, Sims became more hardcore.
I can't trust my sims to go outside without dying Stephen Stotch died of freezing into little bits, I had to reset my game because Kenny McCormick died due to wearing the wrong clothes in the hot summer, and Wendy's best friend Bebe got caught in a sudden flame while Ms Testaburger was cooking a meal, and now Cartman's mom died for no apparent reason, and I just selected them after having fun with the Testaburgers.

I have to say... this EP won't stop killing my whole town. What do I do? How can I prevent this from happening all over again?

I think the main question is, who put their hoohoodilly in Cartman's mom's chacha?

It sounds like you may have a mod that is taking your Sims temperatures to extremes (I vaguely remember that Awesomemod could do that, but I may be wrong I don't use it.) My Sim never get too hot or too cold(Unless its a Nraas mod that is protecting my Sims from extreme temperatures.)

Yeah you must have some sort of mod issue; I've had Seasons for fucking ages and it's never massacred my towns.

I deleted Awesomemod way before I had Seasons. Also, I have another problem, my sims won't talk to each other while they're sitting down in addition to not being able to save their relationships and having that first time message of activation EPs everytime I start. I don't have that much mods, really and the majority of them are tweaks to teens and children and NRAAS mods.

Something is definitely off in your game. I noticed there are both the Summer Fun & Holiday Cheer moodlets in the panel which shouldn't be possible since one only happens on Leisure Day and one on Snowflake Day.

Also the mood meter is the wrong colour (it's that bluish green that I usually get when the UI is broken) and doesn't reflect Cartman's mood anyway (it should be in the deep reds like his portrait thumbnail but it shows a level that is almost in Elated) and Grim is missing his head.
In addition freezing to death takes ages, first they would have to freeze solid and then starve to death while frozen, meaning that they will have to lie around for at least a whole Sim day. So it is next to impossible to have this happen accidentally and so unexpectedly fast.
I would say that something is terribly broken in your game.

Edit: There's actually more after looking at that screenshot again:
- he's sitting on a couch while his mother dies; he should actually have come running and mourn her
- there's a cat living in the house but doesn't show in his relationship panel; that's not normal either. Even if he had no relation with it, household members always show up

Nice observation. I wouldn't dispute a thing.

Also wanted to point out Cartman's mood. His thumbnail is supposed to be red only if he's Very Hungry. Right now his moodlet is only Hungry, so it's not possible to be red (it's supposed to be orange, at least).

It could be red if he also had the moodlet of having witnessed the death of a relative. It really looks as if the moods of the Sims are in accordance with what happens but the UI is stuck in some odd state and doesn't reflect the actual circumstances.

Go for it, I think you didn't uninstall awesome mod correctly and it fucked up you're game.

Unless I missed it, it doesn't look like you have the base mod for Nraas Story Progression, just the extra modules. The base mod is required for the extra modules to work and that may be whats screwing your game (unless someone else can see something I can't.)

Some of these mods are almost 5 years old. Have you checked them for compatibility with your current patch level?
And as regards AwesomeMod: unless this is a game that you started before you pulled AM from your Mods folder I doubt that this will be the reason.

Edit: Orilon, yes, you're right, I can't find the base module of Story Progression either on that list.
