HUGE Thank You!

As most of you have read, I was having some major memory issues when it came to CAS to the point my game would crash while creating/editing households. After 9 days of updating my mods folder and adding so much new cc to the game I couldn't even get through two outfit categories before my game would crash. My simself was stuck in an infinite loop of nonexistence because I couldn't save her. LOL.

Thankfully, my rants were read far and wide. Thank you to everyone to felt my pain and a special big thanks to the people who imparted the best advice for me to move forward: @danplayssims, @dyeawkwardsims, @smile4me-sweets-blog.

If anyone is ever having issues in CAS and has a lot of cc in the game, you should already have NRaas Master Controller mod. Click your sim, click NRaas, click Settings, click CAS, scroll to the setting where it says Show in Compact Mode - change all the settings to True. That way it will compact clothing, accessories, and hats so when your computer's memory loading all the cc it won't crash or lag because compacting the cc saves some memory. You'll see once you try it out.

Thank you to the community for being so helpful. <3

Dragon Age Origins

Those darn PS3 era games can be so annoying on Steam, you have the ones without subtitles, you have the ones that will only use an Xbox controller, then you have the half way broken ones, this is one of them. With FFXIII, it would stutter unless you plugged a controller in for me but with this one, it doesn't even take a controller.

Upon start-up, it informs you that the dlc in the ultimate edition needs to be ported via the cd keys page on Steam but that doesn't exist anymore so I started thinking I got hustled but there it is in the menu, already there, false alarm. I go through character creation and- crash. Try it again, go through character creation and black screen. Skip what was supposed to be a cutscene and it's still black. Troubleshoot. It's because I have another monitor (drawing monitor) but that's never been a problem before so I unplugged it- crashes again.

Troubleshoot again and others had this problem but usually after playing it already with mods installed, which I hadn't even started the game at this point. Disabled V-sync, disable frame buffer effects, disabled all online stuff. Went to the cutscene but still black. Was it because I picked human rogue? Because that means it blocks me off from experiencing certain stories, even if I chose it random. At this point a mod might actually save this game like it did FalloutNV but there isn't one that does that really.

Uninstalled, reinstalled, changed resolution settings, went for an elf run. Worked. Which one, dunno, but it did.

Now I want you to understand, this is a roleplaying game. Not an RPG or JRPG that you're used to, it's straight up something you could see in Baldrs Gate, you can do the top down perspective, equip stuff in the bottom menu and click on where you want the character to go. One handed. Now these are options, you can also get behind the character and play it more like you would The Witcher but it's not a Fantasy Mass Effect just because it's Bioware. You more or less heal after each encounter though which is cool and you can pause it to give commands.

I named my character Daelin and got about an hour in after rescuing some girls from a douchebag in a castle. Aaaannnddd it crashed again, couldn't get it to get past the menu. You guys know me, I hate prerequisites. I downloaded a 4GB patch which is supposed to fix crashing, that's when I got that error picture (yes, I'm just as surpissed as you that it's real). Then I resorted to the ancient ways of the manual .exe boot-

And hear ye, it worked!...And it crashed again...Son of a-! I put this game off now, officially. I enjoyed what I was playing of it and I had a fun time but I've had it, I've tried all these home remedies but nothing wants to work to make this an enjoyable experience. Good thing I got it on sale. Buy it anywhere else but PC. (for all I know, it's just as broken) This is that Bioware brokenness I got with KOTOR, I don't blame them, surely it was EA and porting but who decided it was acceptable to leave it like this?

So I got a do-hickey (ratchet)that makes my thing-a-mabob (back cloth beam)turn but something doesn't feel right to me about how it is rotating or the sound it makes

I was expecting that it would loosen the tension and make the back beam more simple to turn like the front one is but maybe because it's under tension this is correct?

The possessive half in your AU's relationshps?

In poly-Afterdeath(Death/Error/Geno), Recall's the possessive one(well he lost reaper once, pretty sure he wont want that to happen again)

In Autosearch(Queri/Auto), it's Auto apparently

In Brailneak(Jailbreak/Brightness), it's Jailbreak obviously

In Troubleshoot(Error/Anti), obviously Error. Sansti there is too chill for shit

In Panic(Matic/Pinq), matic's emptily possessive

In royal Aftermath(Error/Geno), it's king error

The other's are either just clingy or not really that harmfully possessive and is in a pretty healthy relationship

Hi, The Masterlist link in the pinned post does not work for some reason. (At least for me) if its not to much trouble, do you mind putting the links to the masterlists in your bio? Thats how I was getting to the masterlists before you split them up. (No worries if you don't!)

Hello! I just went through and updated all the masterlist links, so they can now be found in both the FAQ and my bio. Hope that helped! Let me know if it doesn't.
