Southampton still not working!! 25/01/2017 at 14:41 #91767
Johnson 3 posts	Hi. I am not new to Simsig but am posting for the first time. I have attempted to reinstall Southampton on my newer machine. I have no problem running other sims, both .exe and loader ones. But I seem to have the same problem that has been reported before with this sim about it coming up with for 4 different errors when you try to run. Did anyone actually come up with a reason as to why it does this or am I alone? Any help and advice would be appreciated. Log in to reply

Steamer 3986 posts	Could you confirm a couple of things: 1. You've downloaded the version currently available from the site and installed it 2. Your operating system. I've just downloaded Southampton, installed and it runs fine on Windows 7. Are the messages the same as the ones reported in this thread?

postal 5265 posts	I'm now on W10 but have southampton.exe from my XP days. The file properties give the version as v2.201. I've just cranked it up using the default compatibility settings and it opened with no error messages. The title bars of the various windows show Southampton v3.2.3. Can you get far enough to see if you are getting the same version numbers? “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply

I think it's this thread and these errors. Though it would help of the OP could confirm that or post the errors they are actually having. guidomcc in post 34527 said: I am having problems with Southampton - v2.201. I have run it fine before - got a pile of saved games - but when I load up the program, I get an error message: "Exception in initialisation phase 1." I click OK, hoping all is well, but up pops another one "Exception in SouthamptonData.Init" If you're going to make your programs not work, they can at least do so in queen's english :silly: Clicking OK brings up another box "Exception in SouthamptonCode.Init" Clicking OK to this makes nothing happen, but a visit to Task Manager later and the process was still running. Quite a few of them from all my attempts, in fact. Any guidance on what's gone wrong?

postal 5265 posts	Would that be the thread Steamer referenced in post #91768 of this topic at 15:01 yesterday? “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Last edited: 26/01/2017 at 14:40 by postal Reason: edit Log in to reply
