Default SuperCaw doesn't opem
Hello! I have recently had a lot of issues with CAW. I've been wanting to revamp midnight hollow, but the version of CAW I downloaded won't open it. So I tried to download SuperCaw, from here https://cawster.wordpress.com/2013/04/01/supercaw-exes/ but the exe. doesn't open. Even trying the patch and exe versions, the worldbuilder just doesn't open.

Instead, please download the pre-compiled versions of the SuperCAW executable.

To install, drop the .exe in your CAW folder ([Install location]\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Create a World Tool) to replace the existing executable. Click to run SuperCAW.

That one is ready compiled.

Well done, have fun!

Sorry to bother you again, but I'm running into another issue. It involves the beta has crashed, attempted to read or write protected memory. Is this because I'm editing Midnight Hollow, an EA world? Or is it because I replaced the terrain textures of the world in s3pe? I've done the LAA fix and the 4gb patch. I have also added the two UNKN resources as well as remove the necessary WPID and UNKN resource. Even with prior versions of my Midnight Hollow edit, it either crashes or says it cannot open the file. CAW can open any other untouched world just fine...
