Default AAAAAARGH!!!!! Help Please!
I am so irritated/frustrated/upset/you name it.

I am almost done with 2 worlds I have been working on for months. I now have crashes when try to open them in EIG. I have changed nothing from the uber many past saves and being in EIG. I read some and pulled out the DC Cache. Did not work. I took out mods even though just have RH rugs and 2 bluefunk items I have used for years. I even renamed my game, generated a totally clean one, so no history and no mods there and it still is doing it. I have done all the usual cache cleaning in the game and CAW.

One of the errors did show in Crash Log Analyzer as CC, but I know that CC is fine. I cannot find anything about the specific errors. Access Violation ones.

All help will be appreciated. It makes no sense that when I have changed nothing in the game that I have this all of the sudden and even in a totally new game.

Let's just get this clear-
What exactly have you done to the worlds since last loading them in EIG?
And, you can't even launch a new game now? Or do you mean new world in CAW, or what?
Sorry, just need to be sure I'm understanding what you are saying. Could you please clarify?

I have worked on them for months with no problems. Each time I am in CAW now, or the vast majority of the time I have gone into EIG. I have saved a lot from EIG and tend to save a few times in CAW so have several of the latest backups. Now when I open the world in CAW I can open it, and when I go to EIG the game crashes when the world is loading. I have not done anything in the worlds other than continue to do more work on lots in EIG when there. Right now I have the brand new game and my regular one and the last one with just the tiny CC are renamed so not active. The game itself opens from the launcher. I loaded up Appaloosa and saved in the clean one.

Let me do again and see if have the crash again? And let me go back a few backups on one.

EDIT: I am back. I was able to export both so they are not lost. Hooray. Was able to open one in EIG (yay!) and the other crashed. Will go back in backups on that one and see if any prior will not crash in EIG?

EDIT: crash. It sounds like that world is gone for EIG? I had hope to maybe upload here but will not be able to do if not totally finished.

Try: Clearing caches, both game caches and CAW caches.

Also, try running EIG from this batch file so that CAW is not opened also:

Thank you! I clear CAW and game caches all the time but will try that batch file. Will let you know if works or not for me.

Aha, I have never cleared those virtual files and on Windows 7 on this computer still. Will do that also. Learned something new there.
