I'm playing a legacy and even though I'm on gen 1, like, this family has gone the second farthest any family I have ever had. So in conclusion you saved me from dying internally.

AncientGatekeeper [author] 10 Mar, pm. Hi there thanks for commenting! I have another guide up that covers error code Something similiar happens to my game except it says "Error code It only happens every once and awhile. Share to your Steam activity feed.

Just because you recovered from Error 12 once doesn't mean you'll recover a second time in the same session. By restarting the game or even your entire computer , it helps cleanly unload all game data from the RAM and gives you more leverage the next time.
Error 16 means that your neighborhood save file is larger than 4 GB and cannot be saved. This means your total file size of your current game, not necessarily just your current family.
Error 16 tends to strike with saves with a long history. After all, every Sim gets his or her own memories, own histories, own personalities, and own stats. For Generation-1 Sims, there is much less data to be saved. Some play styles, such as the Generation Legacy Challenge, require so much more data to be saved that medium- or low-end computers may have trouble containing all the data. Error 16 strikes old, long-played files regardless of whether you stay with the same active family.
Because every piece of data takes up its own amount of memory, you stand a larger chance of seeing this bug if you have many generations, large houses, many objects, many textures, many different textures within the same lot, or many clothes.
As a side effect of all the expansion and stuff packs, all new clothes, objects, and textures need to be saved to the hard drive if they're used in your game.
With few expansions or stuff packs, you will likely not see Error Conversely, the more expansions and stuff packs you possess and the more custom content you downloaded from The Sims Exchange , the more likely you will see Error Still, family size and the number of generations is far more of a factor in whether you see Error Even with all expansions and stuff packs installed, it's unlikely you'll encounter Error 16 with a Generation-1 family.
A stronger computer, especially one with more RAM, may help. However, given that the problem comes down to the file's total size, a more powerful machine may not be the simplest answer. Error 16 is almost sure to be fatal to the current save.
After all, if it strikes at all, it will be difficult to reduce the save file to under 4 GB. You can attempt to dodge it by reducing the sizes and number of houses and other lots, though it will take a lot of work and make your cities look hideous. The most reliable way to deal with Error 16 is unfortunately to pack up and move. You can then start a new game, place a copy of the family, and start over. Be warned that doing this removes all Sims' relationships!
You will get error code 12 if the game exceeds this upper cap. If you are getting the error message regularly, you can fix it by reducing the memory requirements of your game. This can be achieved by reducing its graphic settings.
To do this, you will need to twerk the in-game settings and reduce them in an effort to improve the performance of the game. The downside to this solution is that it will affect the aesthetics of the game, lowering the quality of the images. The following procedure will help you reduce graphic settings on your Sims 3 game:. Launch the Sims 3 game on your computer, and click on the three-dots icon on the lower-left corner of the window. Click on the Options menu and then click on the Graphics Settings tab to open it.
On the Graphics Settings window, set the screen size to a relatively lower setting. This is particularly necessary if you are experiencing low FPS, which is the case with error code 12 on Sims 3.
This window also has a number of sliders that allow you to alter such graphic aspects as Tree Detail, and Texture Detail. Depending on how serious the error is in your case, you may need to turn all those sliders off. In some cases, turning just a few of them will resolve error code Finally, you should apply the changes you just made and exit the window. With such settings, you will get lower quality images, but the game will be playable without any memory issues.
Some users have also reported that playing Sims 3 in Windowed mode reduces the likelihood of getting error code This is a quick workaround the error code 12 message on Sims 3. Instead of using the conventional save button to save your progress in the game, try using the Save As option.
You should then give the save game a unique file title that is different from anything you may have saved before. Again, you should not include any spaces or special characters on the saved game file title.
In some cases, the world save failure error code on this game may be triggered by corrupted game files. In such a case, deleting all the game files with a. To do this, click on the explorer button on the Windows 10 taskbar. On the saves folder, select all the folders with a.
Name the new folder Backup, open it and then paste the cut folders into that directory.
