Line 18:
Some mods can corrupt objects or even cause malfunctions in the game code, resulting in one or more of the neighborhoods disappearing, which requires the game to be re-installed completely. See [[Load game error]] for problems related to neighborhoods. Some Mods can also cause a [[Game Crash]] or [[save game error]].
Many mods, when installed, conflict with other mods. This is especially true for core mods; only one core mod can be installed at a time. A mod designer may or may not be aware of these conflicts, so it is important to be careful when installing multiple mods.
Additionally, some mods may corrupt saved games or game data if they are uninstalled incorrectly which will either result in a [[load game error]] or [[Game Crash]]. If a mod must be uninstalled in a particular manner, the documentation that accompanied the mod should explain this. Mods that add additional skills in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' are known to cause damage to Sims who have earned a skill which was recently deleted. This will cause the player to have to delete their saved game.
Also, players are advised to check for updates every time they buy a new expansion or stuff pack. Out of date mods can cause save game files not to be [[Load game error|loaded properly]]. Also, there is a chance that the game will be destroyed if it is ran with and out of date core mod. ''[[The Sims 3/Patch 18|Patch 18]]'' fixed the issue at some rate by not prompting the player if any out of date mods are installed.
