So it all seems to be working ok but are the paths on the intersections supposed to look like this? (see attachment)

It kinda spoils my house because an intersection has apeared outside my front gate which happens to be a drive way lol

One of my sims wanted to be a chess master, but sims he called to come over and play chess with him often failed to turn up. I'm guessing it was a routing problem, and I'm thrilled to have your fix. Thanks for making it and for sharing it with us.

You're probably trying to download too many things at once; I get that message if I try to download more than 5 items at the same time.

Gnasher316,
yes, we have been discussing it here http://www.modthesims.info/download...68&goto=newpost
Same suggestion for you as well. Do the fixes yourself with the routing resources files in that thread, while skipping the Intersection files.

thegoldengeist, TickleOnTheTum,
using Download managers of any kind that set to download more than 3 chunks at once? Are you making sure to download one file at a time, with one part chunks? And renamed them all as instructed in the Overview? I just downloaded them all and they extracted fine.
Sometimes, once you get download failures, you need to clear caches and history, or even logout before doing that.

ps: on the gaps,
Unless there's a majority's consensus that I should take out the Intersection fixes in this .world upload, I'm afraid the gaps are here to stay. That's why I gave a couple weeks for the resources thread to collect feedback before I upload these crazy-ass-longtime-to-upload rar files.

Next time, speak up earlier!

the teleporting cat is a "playing in the bathtub issue" only base game and ep bathtubs do not do that. there is a mod available to prevent your kitty from autonomous bathtub activity.

Is it possible, that S3PE has destroyed my AP world file? I'm asking, cause I have downloaded resources for AP, from this thread and I have apapplied it by myself. AP started to work a bit faster, but the game also started to crash to desktop. I didn't know it's because of that, but today I have downloaded Appaloosa Plains.world file from this thread, and game works exellent! What I did wrong, that mine world file with resources gave me those crashes...

I know how to apply the fixes, I did it myself to other towns, and they work OK... No crashes at all.

Alright, I'm sure I'm missing something. But I've extracted the world, and it loads, and I see the little crosswalks everywhere and all the extra fences. But my game still pauses like crazy. I'm open for suggestions if anyone has some.

@Lolthien, you need to read the Intermittent Freeze wiki FAQ, which is linked in the World Routing wiki FAQ - at the top of the Wiki and also towards the bottom of the Wiki under "Related Pages"

After 1K+ downloads? Uh, I hope not!

Revert things back to original? Does it still happen with the original .world file?
What is the exact FULL path you placed this .world in?

Is this save a vanilla Appaloosa Plains or another downloaded, user-modified version based on the original AP?
And it affects ALL AP saves or just one AP save, created before or after having installed this fixed .world file?

Did you also test without other mods and only have this fixed .world file installed, just to establish a baseline?
And of course confirmed on 100% vanilla settings with clean user files and no fixed .world files anywhere? What is the status of this test?

This path is wrong. Please reread Wiki and Overview for instructions on correct path.

And this?

"Fixed world, no CC: ... but the name was normal. ... Sorry for wasting your time."
Thanks for confirming all is A-OK with this download.
I'd check any mods that have a custom STBL - with custom descriptions and new names and such, or do the 50% method as shown in Game Help:TS3 Finding Problem Custom Contentwiki to weed out the culprit.

"is there a way to force immigrants"
Both of these mods can do it I believe, but you have to read up yourself on what commands to use
- MasterController (may need an add-on), or is it SP?? &
- Awesomemod.

Is your game installed to the default Origins path, @dreamcatcher2009?

I have the defaults as reported to me documented in Game_Help:World_Routing_Lags#Originwiki. Is yours not located there, if you chose a default install?

My game has been freezing like described in the Help section and I already tried the mentioned mod to remove memories altogether, but my game still starts to lag after playing for a while (since Pets).
Trying to fix world routing was next on my list, so I'm really glad that I can download an already fixed world Thanks a lot for this

EDIT : My game is running like before Pets now, so apparently the routing issues were part of my lag issues. Thanks for creating this fix!

@Kniga, I learned from the members who shared their expertise in Editing Premade Worlds, and its predecessor.
Which incidentally is linked in the Wiki.
