The Sims Gallery is all red crosses and tattoos fully black out my sims
I try open the gallery and nothing will load, can't even save sims to the gallery either. Just says "this item is corrupted" but its every item. And I want to place tattoos I've used before they aren't cc and they just fully dye my sims pure black. Have no mods, no cc. I had this issue a while ago and restarting my computer helped but now its not.
Royalty vs uni
Hi! I have a strange problem with the game. I bought a new Royalty expansion pack and started to play. I created a sim that was a normal one, in high school she found and read a book about dynasty and it turned out her uncle or something was a royalty. So I chose and she started career as a royal. When she turned adulthood I was trying to sing her for university (I chose 4 semesters history) and when I accepted her royal career vanished and she became a footballer. I tried it 2 times and every time it cancelled her royal career. I don’t understand why , does anyone had the same problem?
No romance interactions
The 12 May 2026 update just came out but I didn't update my game yet due to all the mods I have. As I was playing, I noticed my married sims don't have any romantic interactions except for offer a massage. I've had this problem before and it was the family tree that somehow changed them to siblings. I didn't know how to fix that so I had to delete my family. Now, when I click onto family tree to check if it's made the same error, the whole game freezes and crashes and I have to restart my laptop. Is it because of the update? If I update my game will it be fixed, or what?Sims constantly going to sleep
Every time I check a Sim they have decided to sleep somewhere random! Would it be possible to tune how often sims decide to nap or sleep during the day? Playing on normal lifespan autonomous play No mods happening over many saves. Sims will autonomously take naps constantly during the day without being in the red. Sometimes Sims will go to sleep during strange times and there is barely a need for sleeping usually the other needs are already met. Could it be tuned so Sims only nap autonomously during typical nap time in mid afternoon or early evening and only autonomously sleep during typical sleeping hours? I'm getting tired of this! 😄
Save problems
When i finished creating a new family and try to save it, it keeps loading but never ends, also, nothing is saving, every time i open the game i mute the music on settings save the changes and when i open the sims again the music is there, every time i delete and old save, they come back the next time i open up the game. Also the gallery dotn work for me anymore. Im really sad because i was just starting on the sims😟Lady Bridgerton Event is not working (Gnomes trying to fix message)

The first couple of times I sent my sim and her boyfriend (who lives on another lot) on vacation, this was not a problem. After an update - not sure if it's related - uninvited sims appear on the vacation lot when the screen loads for the first time. It's incredibly annoying! They eat of the food my sim prepares and sleep in the beds. I've tried clicking on them to see if I could send them home, but that wasn't an option. Is this a known bug? I've searched the forum but not found any other posts about this issue.Several Issues with my Legacy Save File
When I travel to a lot, it shows on the map but is empty when my sims arrive as if I had bulldozed the lot. This happens with both lots I have placed from the gallery and EA created lots Some of the lots where I have replaced the default house with a lot from the gallery have reverted back to the original lot on the map. Some of them still have the new lot's name on it and some have gone back to the original lot name. I have filled almost all of Newcrest with lots from the gallery and none of them show up on the map. The names are still there but the lots look bulldozed. This is a very large save file as I have played with this family for 10+ generations. I have I think 3 residential lots placed in this game. No CC or mods.
A whole neighborhood gone.
Since the update I have not been able to find any of my builds in Newcrest, I spent two and half weeks building everything and everything was there two days before the update. There was no custom content, I was able to find two of them but they said that the content was not downloaded to I can't place the lots. I have all most all the packs. please help. I tried to repair it, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. I am not a tech person but I lost all my hard work. It is so frustrating.
Gallery Freeze
So i tried everything but my galleriy still keeps freezing after around 3 seconds. I tried to use other internet source, i tried reinstalling or repairing. I didnt know when exactly it startet because it was a long time ago. But i wanted to fix it now. But even with chatgpt i cant figure it out. I would really appreciate some help.
I can't do anything with my Sim.
Every time I try to interact with other Sims, I only see the option to give a gift, but it won't let me have any other interactions. Besides that, I can't level up any skills because every time I start an action, it's automatically canceled. It won't let me use items unless I'm converting them into relics. At first, I thought it was just one of the thousands of bugs everyone was experiencing, so I waited for the update, but nothing changed. Then I tried repairing the game, but that didn't work either, and I don't have any mods installed, so I don't think that's the reason. I don't know what to do anymore.
Can't access cheat bar
Since the recent update I'm unable to access the cheat bar in the game. I tested several different things - I checked if my mods were updated (they were), I uninstalled the mods, I disabled mods, I used a new save file, I made sure my keyboard was working. Nothing helped that's why I'm here. I'm playing on windows.
