Latest female hairs crash problem !

A few of simmers said in their post that the latest female hairstyle crashed the game,
although most simmers didnt meet such problem and these hairstyle work perfectly with
their game. But after deleting some hacks in packages folder, the conflict disappeared.


As to this issue, if u meet any similar trouble, please post here with details or screenshot.
Thus we will solve it as soon as possible.
I installed the hairs and within a few moments of them being installed, my game crashed. I don't have a screenshot, but it seems to have issues when you zoom, or move the game screen too fast.

mine works fine...in all probability, it's some hack that conflict with the hairs...or your computer requirements is too low

I know for sure that it's not my computer, because I built it and it's primarily a gaming comp, so it must be one of my hacks that are conflicting... I'll try figure this out.
in all probability, there is some hack that causes conflict with the hair.

hi simmers, I've tested these hairstyles on multiple computers and under various situations,
such as installing all hairsyles simultaneously, and with lots of patchs/hacks, and together with
numerous items from EA STORE, and adjusting graphic quality; and zoom in/out rapidly and
frequently; and playing continuously over 2 hours and etc, but all are fine. All the hairstyles work perfectly.

So here are the possible reasons for crashing we speculate:
1  conflict with one or some hacks/patches
2  insufficient computer requirements

If u have any other clues or ideas, plz let me know.
Yeah my game crash when i use your great hair to. And its a bummer cause i just love it. I dont have any hacks... atleast i dont think i do.... mostly hairs and clothes that is downloaded... dunno why. Yeah ofcourse just a few cause im always one of few that have problems lol. Hoping ill figure this one out but i dont have a clue. im one of those that dont know anything about comps and just gets amazed everytime i see all the great stuff ppl make. Anyway... great site and lovely things in here so keep up the great work.

/silly dilly swedish one of a few.

UPDATED 23.07.:
I've been tested new peggy's hairs for about 2 days and must say, that they are not crashing the game. I added hairs one by one into the game and the game didn't crash anymore. But one hair I didn't put back- that was one mail hair from the other website. I didn't have heart to put it back and test the game with it because obviously that mail hair was the "quilty" one and game run without problems since then. SO PEGGY, I MUST SAY TO YOU JUST THAT I'M SORRY TO BLAME YOUR BEAUTIFUL CREATIONS!

Did You try testing the game with changing households? Because my game crashes almoust every time when I try this (not every time, but ALMOUST every time). On the ather way, I can also play one household without problems very long. The game chrashes when sim with custom hair leave household very guickly - with the taxi, for example. Saving is okay, but when I change household, it shows up for few seconds and than game crashes. My PC is very powerfull and strong and the problem is not in PC. AND WITH THE FIRST HAIR THERE IS NO PROBLEM NOT WITH THE GAME ITSELF, NOT WITH THE HACKS.

Can You tell how to test new hairs with all mods (hacks)? I don't know how to do this.

I will test hairs one by one and I will see and let You know. i also have one mail custom hair from the other website - it's possible that this hair conflicts with new peggy's hairs. I will test this too. And with core mods too ... But this will last for a very long time, I think. But maybe so the problem will be explained and solved after some tome, I hope.

Because most people use core mods - hacks- (without them is almoust impossible to play game) this and future hairs must be compatible with them. Will You please think about this problem too?
I had the same problem with my pc crashing. It would crash when the camera zoomed in or out. I decided to delete my mods folder and start all over again with installing any custom contents or hacks by installing one item at a time and playing the game to see which it was causing the crash. I didn't have many so this was not a problem. I'm very wary about installing any custom content with my game since I had the same problems with Sims2. My pc is the latest in gaming but there can be conflicts when combining hacks. I finally found the file that caused the crashes and it was not the hair files from peggy. I installed those halfway in the process and had no problems. It was the last file that I saved for last because it was one of the last ones that I had installed. It was the one that was conflicting with the peggy hair styles. I don't know why, maybe there are compatibility problems between the two. But since I took it out, I no longer have any crashes. Which I'm glad, but I guess I'll have to pay more attention to what I place in the folder and only place one file at a time to make sure the files don't conflict with one another.

thank you so much for your clue, azara. that helps a lot.
Hello,

I have the crash problem too, my computer is quad core with powerful video card so I know it's not the requirements. It crashes very often, when i zoom or scroll and the problem started upon installing the new long hair just yesterday. Now I have no hacks that I know of, what exactly do you mean by hacks? All mods are hacks or is it something else? All I have installed is some custom hair, skins, eyes from peggyzone and outfits from lianasim.
Would appreciate some feedback, thanks
