the Visual C++ runtime for 32 bit ( required for both 32 and 64 bit!).Don’t forget, you may need to install the pre-requisite software, if you don’t have it already.Download CCMagic_2920_Setup.zip to use the installer program.CC Magic Installer, available atModTheSims.To complete this Tutorial, you will need: It will make organizing your CC a breeze, and will significantly reduce the amount of time you spend organizing it yourself. I highly recommend CC Magic to anyone who has a significant amount of CC in their game. If you’re not sure about using CC Magic, check out my recommendation: Recommendation: CCMagic (it’s true, I’m a Late Adopter). This tutorial should also be of interest to people who have tried to use CC Magic in the past, but were frustrated with process, or for people (like me) who panicked when they used CC Magic for the first time. If you’ve never set up CC Magic before, and you’re nervous about using it for the first time, this tutorial should be a great help.
It’s up to you to know how to do that (or ask in the comments, or on my simblr). I will not focus in-depth on downloading and installing CC Magic.
This tutorial will teach you how to set up CC Magic for the first time. So if you update to 8.1, be ready to re-install your graphics drivers, at the very least. It seems that many drivers have some compatibility issues with 8.1, including some mouse/keyboard drivers. While I was trying to find out what Windows 8.1 could have done to my computer, I found many articles where people were having issues with drivers after updating to 8.1. Then I reinstalled the drivers and CCM is still doing fine. So, I uninstalled my Nvidia drivers and CCM launched fine. So finally I went to the event information viewer in Admin Tools, and found that d3d9.dll was listed as an issue with CCM. Something was shutting down the program before it could finish launching. Nothing worked.Īnyhow, after going through the logs generated by CCM, and combing through a bunch of different logs posted on the CCM forums, I noticed my log looked incomplete. I tried all kinds of voodoo, like uninstalling and re-installing the C++ redistributables, adding CCM to my anti-virus, seeing if a DEP exception would help.
CC Magic would start launching, but immediately shut down. Then I tried to launch CC Magic, and that’s where fine ended. For some reason, I didn’t think much of this and just turned off the setting and my games looked normal and everything was fine. If you update to Windows 8.1 and start having trouble with your CC Magic launching, re-install your graphics drivers.Īfter Installing Windows 8.1, my graphics driver decided to turn on Stereoscopic 3D as default.
