"Move lot" pointer bug on the screen as soon as I go into a specific lot.
As soon as I open one specific lot I've been working on lately in Sulani (on building mode), a "move lot/house" pointer shows up and is not letting me do anything more after I click on the "check" button. Can't click on anything on the lot, the lot itself is completely frozen. Playing on xbox.12Views0likes1CommentMissing dlc
I recently transferred from the Xbox one to the Xbox series and was able to get almost everything moved to the new console, but 8 of the packs I paid for are showing up as unowned, when I went back to the Xbox one to check they were still available so how do I get them to the Xbox series? (I tried restarting, clearing local save, redownloading, and switching between profiles)20Views0likes1CommentEntire Game Lost After Save / Save Issiue
Hello, I am playing The Sims 4 on PlayStation 5. I have been using the same save file (“Save 9”) for several months. Recently, I created a new family and saved the game using the same save slot. After reopening the game, all my previously created families, houses, and progress were completely gone. The save slot is still visible, but all previous content has been replaced. I did not manually delete any data. I was not aware that saving over the same slot would permanently overwrite months of progress without any recovery option. I have already checked both Console Storage and Cloud Storage on PS5. There is no older version available to restore. Is there any possible way to recover a previous version of this save file on PS5? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.62Views0likes1CommentMy games keep getting deleted and I don't know why,

Playing on xbox. Recently purchased the rancher expansion, then pre ordered the royalty and legacy packs. Since I got the rancher expansion my game began to lag a little here and there. When the royalty pack downloaded it got worse. The game freezes or lags where the sims just stand there doing nothing indefinitely. I have to go to build mode or manage worlds to reset. I know there are cheats to reset sims, but it is very inconvenient to do so on a console every few minutes, and I don't think I should have to. Because it really is every few minutes. Also, in the royalty pack my sims consistently get stuck looping in the secret passageways. The more secret passageways you have the worse it is. I ended up deleting all of them for that very reason. The lagging and sims getting stuck just standing there for long periods of time is driving me absolutely crazy though, and I don't know how to fix it.SaltyCNA3 days agoSeasoned Newcomer58Views1like1CommentMy Library gone?

I am currently unable to split any of my funds from my main household to the new household. When clicking the arrow to transfer funds, nothing happens. When clicking on the box to manually enter the amount of funds, you’re able to enter an amount when the keyboard comes up but when hitting enter the funds stay at 0. I am playing on an Xbox series s. I do not/can’t use mods. My game is fully updated to the latest version.angelripper12347 days agoRising Newcomer46Views0likes0CommentsCorrupt pop up on my ps5 game

I'm not sure if I should post this here or in bug reports but I've been having this issue for while (probably at least a year). I've only noticed this problem in one of my save files. When I try to upload a build to the gallery (either publicly or just to my library), it seems as if it has successfully uploaded, but when I go to my library the build isn't there. There is no error message of any kind. I don't have any mods or custom content or anything like that. I play on xbox. Is there a way I can fix this without starting over?Totalnerdher8 days agoSeasoned Newcomer60Views0likes3CommentsCity living won’t work ps5

I'm not able to play the game since yesterday, I'm playing with Cloud subscription with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. I have tried from my Samsung smart TV and PC with cloud, after i log in into my Xbox account screen freezes charging the game, it can stay like this for minutes and then game stop working. Since I started playing it, I have had crashes that would unexpectedly end the game and force me to play from my last saved game, but this latest problem has made it completely unplayable.maizorin978 days agoSeasoned Newcomer80Views0likes4CommentsGlitching
Since I started playing with the Royalty & Legacy game pack this week my game has been coming to a glitch getting stuck to where I have to restart the game. I can't save it or go out of the household or anything and this week I noticed this. Last week I wasn't having this issue. Has anyone else experienced this issue?75Views1like1CommentMy Game is Broken

Hi, I’m having an issue with my game on PS5 (digital PS4 version, no disc). Every time I launch the game, it behaves like it’s the first time opening. On every launch I get: EA User Agreement Screen adjustment calibration Sims Delivery Express (SDX) notification “Welcome” popups for expansion packs (sometimes all packs) My saves persist correctly and gameplay works normally. Households load, manual saves stick, and DLC remains installed. I have already: Deleted the game and all saved data Reinstalled fresh from the PlayStation Store Restored licenses Rebuilt database Confirmed Console Sharing is enabled Started a brand-new save after full wipe Even after a completely clean reinstall, the issue continues. Is this a known issue with the PS4 version running on PS5? Is there any workaround for the repeated first-launch sequence? Thanks.kendratti10 days agoNew Novice64Views0likes1CommentDownload to use?
