Help with saving Sims 2 lots

StaceyUK

I am playing the Ultimate Collection. I want to save a lot to file to use in another neighbourhood but when I try to do this I get the hourglass cursor but nothing happens. When I go to Windows Task Manager it says the game is not responding.

Can anybody help me save my lot to file?

Hi

How long does the timer spin?
How much CC is on the lot?
Did you build the lot?

I built the lot. If you haven't little cc. Store items and baby monitor. Spinner lasts over 10 mins.

Are Sims living in it? That's a bad idea if they are. It would corrupt your game.

Yes. I originally wanted to move them to a new neighbourhood. Read that's not a good idea, so I didn't.

Do not, under any circumstances, move your sims to a different neighborhood. You will corrupt the old and new neighborhoods.

Dont save a lot that has been lived in to your lot bin. I build and place in bin first. If I discover I left out lights or something, I pull a fresh one out of the bin, fix and rename or delete old one and resave back to bin.
