Don't add the sims 2 to Steam?
First off I just want to say thank you again for the
http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?tit...lp:Game_Problem thing, it has saved my sims so many times. It's a blessing when you're totally lost and have 100% no idea what to do.
Anyway, I tried to add the sims 2 as a non-steam game to my steam library so I could take screenshots of it easily. It seems like that's a terrible idea, on the scale of makes the game stop opening/launching. Removing the cache files seems to have fixed it, but I also tried a reinstall before I remembered about the Game help game problem thing (so I'm not 100% which thing fixed my game). Sorry if that's already a known issue and I'm just an idiot for trying that. Also if someone else has gotten it to work, good for you. I'm not certain adding the game to steam was the problem, but I ain't risking breaking my sims 2 install twice in the same day. I just got all my weird CC (like the CEP) and the game's resolution working again, so I am not bothering to really figure out exactly what broke it or exactly what fixed it.
So in summary: MTS is awesome/helpful and don't add the sims 2 to steam, probably bad ju-ju that one.
