    Hi,
    Do you have all the required expansions?
    If not the world will not load.. i think WA is the expansion that you need the most.

    This come from the offical setra thread :
    "I've been seeing a lot of people who are experiencing crashing issues when trying to load the world. Remember: you need ALL expansion packs up to and including Pets for the world to work properly."
    So it seems you must have pets for it to work properly :( sorry

    Well i have setra downloaded and installed and works fine (i have all expansions)
    so i dont see why it would'nt.
    One thing though, setra is a big world so you must have a good pc in order to play it lag free, if you post your dxdiag i can look over it for you

    Usually the creators only reply on their own threads - so if I was you I would do a search for Setra and post in his thread - I just know with Setra you need All ep up through Pets and at least 6 gigs of ram to play without problems as it is a very big and detailed worlds with a big population - but you want him to answer - you really need to post in his thread. Also he does not hand around when he is not working on a world here - he has a life and a job and is very busy - so it might take him a while.

    Last a world cannot break your pc period. If your pc broke it was just time and the world was too big for what equipment you have - that is why it is important to find a world thread before you download and see the requirement and you need to meet at least what the creator lists. But no world can break a pc - technically.

    I know this thread is pretty old but I'm having issues with this world. I have all the required expansions packs loaded although one time I mistakenly opened the game without WA active. This is my first time running across this problem because it used to work and would load. Now it just crashes not even halfway through the loading screen. I've tried reinstalling it thinking maybe it was just corrupted but I don't believe it worked unless I didn't uninstall fully in the first place. Can anyone help me? I really would like to play this world again. :(
