Sims 2 Homecrafter Plus crashes recently.

Are you trying to run it while you have the game running?
I notice that both it and bodyshop, along with the game too, they all use a
lot of memory. Maybe try shutting down some of the background running stuff
first.

Move everything from your downloads folder to somewhere safe and try again.
It might be a clash with some user made item.

Thanks, I tried that and wound up reinstalling it. Read the reply to
Bluegenie2 above. I believe I found the offender. I appreciate all the
help, very much.

This makes me even more suspicious of that patch. I haven't heard
that it does anything important except for people in Asian
territories.
