I downloaded the new update today on my PS5 and it keeps saying to login to my EA account to use online features. My Internet is working fine so this has to be an EA issue. Is there a way to fix this? Also, my Sims on my home screen have been stripped of their clothes and my female Sim no longer looks pregnant. I'm scared to fully load into my save. Help, what do I do?twizted_orifice5 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer659Views6likes37CommentsGame keeps crashing after update (xbox)
Ever since the new update for consoles on 6/17 the game keeps crashing. Is anyone else having this problem? It doesn’t freeze or anything the screen just immediately goes black and crashes. I use an Xbox. This has to be the sixth or seventh time for me and I’m sick of it. I’m no longer playing until this is fixed. It wasn’t doing this before the update. Sometimes it crashes 10 min in and sometimes it crashes an hour in. But it’s crashing, a lot. I’ve been trying to play still but at this point I don’t see why I keep trying. Can this be fixed?Chaotic7Cam9 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer44Views2likes1CommentThe sims 4 keeps closing out during gameplay after update
After this most recent upload I noticed it. I will be in the middle of playing and every 15 minutes into the game it would just crash…So I read something that had said to remove some things I downloaded from the gallery so I did that. And all I noticed was that it allowed me to stretch my play 30-40 minutes. I even cleared my cache, reset my x box, I don’t want to remove the whole game and put it back on but MAN I don’t know what to do. Any suggestions?? Advice??20Views0likes0CommentsThe gallery and game crashing
My gallery is not working . I have reset , unlinked and re-linked my EA account, my internet is not the issue what so ever. All I can see is my library, I have tried countless times restarting my game & console and still nothing. Its been a day now !!? Ever since the recent update for console it seems to make the game run WORSE !!! my game has been crashing as well not as bad as day 1 but nonetheless my game is not running smoothly at all19Views0likes0CommentsGame crashes when saving on PS5
The title is self explanatory. This is a really frustrating issue where the game crashes during saving specifically and I lose all progress each time. This has been happening for a few months now but it’s to the point where I can count on a crash almost every time I save. Totally defeats the purpose of playing. I have every expansion, game, and stuff pack. I also have a good amount of kits but not all them. Obviously no mods, since I’m on console. Please help.iam_BritNicole13 hours agoRising Newcomer47Views1like1CommentConsole Still Crashing with Update 2.13
I can't say all PS4, I can just say mine is. At this point what in all the world is really going on. It's not our playstation for a absolute fact so this suggestion that we should send out playstations in for manufacturing repairs is not going to fly or a fix... Its happening to the PS4 I can't speak for Xbox I don't have one. What I do know is my sister has the PS5 and she has no issues with playing sims 4 on it. I've watched her game stream for 7 hours without a single bleep. This is not criticism this is a concern and down right confusion at this point and we have so many things coming such as the nature event that its going to make it impossible to play with this buggedout ps4 update I use to say it can't be that bad when people would tell me they was having issues and I would say It can't be that bad..well.... I want to apologize I completely understand now.QueenExtreme13 hours agoNew Traveler28Views1like0CommentsError while saving
I play on an Xbox one and ive been having issues for over a year with saving my game. While saving the file im currently on I'll get error 08 or 00 and I think 01 too where itll delete my file which I then have to resave on an empty "new game" file which then blacks out all the photos my sims have taken. I love taking photos of my sims but its gotten to the point where I feel like I shouldn't bother. It just happened again after I had my sim have a birthday shoot and im so irritated rn. Ik saving on a new file is blacking them out but does anyone know why this is happening?VaeHoneybun13 hours agoRising Novice14Views0likes1CommentAll login event items gone

I logged in to play sims and I got a pop up window saying there was content uninstalled and that if I saved the game it would be gone completely. For some reason, my City Living Pack is not installed, despite it being shown at installed in my PS5. When I click on the pack intself, the purchase button says “You Already Own This Pack” so I’m not sure of what could’ve caused it to get removed in the first place.Solved1_GR1M_R34P3R_122 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer249Views0likes3CommentsEA app authentication failed message
I'm getting the message "EA app authentication failed. Please log in to EA app to enable online features". I checked my account on EA, and it shows it's already linked to my PS 4 account. I checked my wifi and even reconnected to the internet to be sure. I cleared the ps 4 cache. It won't fix the problem. I didn't get this issue until after I installed the new update.Bbwolf202 days agoRising Traveler59Views3likes0CommentsThe Sims 4 on Console - Feedback Thread
Sul sul, This thread is intended to gather any feedback you have for The Sims 4 that specifically relates to console versions of the game. Any feedback you wish to provide on performance, controls or the UI is welcome here. Please do keep your feedback constructive, as we can do so much more with "I don't like X because Y" than "X is a stupid thing that is stupid" ALL CAPS and nonconstructive posts will be removed.

I have been building in oasis springs most of the day. Now I can not -save game, build a platform, build a fountain. I have restarted the game twice now, and lord knows that takes forever since I have almost all the packs.Solvedsparkledeecorti2 days agoSeasoned Newcomer62Views0likes3CommentsSettings and online Gallery
I play on ps5, I had recently just wiped my whole system to factory settings and deleted all saves and such (horrible I know..) because it seemed my game has nothing but issues and potentially corrupt files. Well I just downloaded everything fresh and new, but now trying to play TS4 I am unable to access the online gallery or even maxis gallery.. I also cannot access some settings in game options, like environmental settings, pack settings, even gameplay settings. I have nearly all the game packs(not including kits) for the game and they all are downloaded(including kits). I even checked if the game needed an update. I've tried restoring licenses, powering down my system and turning it on, deleting and re-downloading the whole game and all saved data again. Absolutely nothing seems to be working. Im not sure if my system may be corrupted and causing issues with server connections but my internet is Absolutely perfect too(meaning i did a internet test). I even thought maybe it was my extended storage so I wiped that clean too...(thats where TS4 was stored originally). I even tried playing with my sims disk inserted and without(i have the disk version and the console store version. They basically count as the same version no matter which i use.)97Views1like4CommentsNew update broke build mode?
I wrote this earlier, but I think I might have put it in the wrong forum. Is anyone else having issues with build mode after the new update? I cant place any items on a lot at all. If I try to place an item it immediately disappears like I never clicked on it. Also, I have been having an issue with my sims or pets turning completely black if paint tool has been used on them for tattoos or to make the pets look more realistic._itsVEEplays2 days agoRising Newcomer64Views0likes1CommentParenthood GP not showing up in game
After updating my game, I opened it and realized everything from parenthood was missing I thought “oh maybe it got uninstalled” because that has happened before, but when I went to manage game and add ons, it was checked as being installed. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, but the content still isn’t showing up and it’s saying I need to “download to use” I think this has something to do with the update, but I really need my pack that I paid for to work.
