Over the holiday, I wanted to test-install The Sims 2: University on my father's desktop, to make sure the new activation code I got was working. Of course, once I installed it, I couldn't resist playing a little and created an impromptu little family using the legacy challenge rules. Once I was playing, I started missing all the added options that Nightlife gave me. My couple didn't even have turn-ons or chemistry!
So today, I brought over the Nightlife expansion and installed it. Smartly, I backed up my entire neighborhood folder, against the need to uninstall and return to the Uni-compatible version of the files, right? Right?
WRONG. I was only semi-smart enough to back up the downloads folder (although it did not get deleted during the installation like I expected) and the one neighborhood I'd set up my legacy household in. Then when I loaded the game to start playing, everything seemed all right, until I realized that I could not play more than twenty minutes or so before the game froze. I'm guessing my dad's processor isn't strong enough.
Rats.
