New Update Deleted All of My Save Files
I just hopped on my Xbox One to check out the most recent updates and found that every single save file has been deleted. All downloaded content, thousands of hours of world-building and gameplay over the years - gone. What is this nonsense? Can they even attempt to fix this or am I permanently deleting this game? I’m pissed off beyond belief.
Packs
I play sims on my Xbox 1 series x and I have alot of packs bought. When I go to manage game and add ons it shows all the packs which I have bought but in the actual game it only shows a few of them and it doesn't acknowledge that I have bought other ones. I have factory reset my Xbox and i don't have any other accounts just this one and I don't know what to do.
[Resolved] Game Renews on Each Start (Xbox One)
I just installed the Sims 4 on my new (for me) Xbox One. However, every time I run the game, it acts like I'm opening the game for the first time (has me accept the terms, adjust screen, tutorials are reset). My save game remains, however. Any idea what's going on? Update: The issue resolved itself. I believe it may have been a result of my saving and existing to the main menu before closing the game once.
Sims not saving as of 21st August 2024 xbox series x
All my save slots changed to autosave and goes back to the last time it saved which was 21st August, I keep trying but it never saves. Ive lost game play so there is no point in playing at all until this bug is fixed. Ive tried offline still the same. Cleared cache etc nothing helps. I have every pack. I am really upset i have played sims 4 since the start and never had this happen before.
Sims 4 PS4 saves disappeared
I'm playing on playstation 4 and for some reason my Save file disappeared, I have never seen this before, I played everyday this week and the only day it keeps saving is August 12. I even try making a new save but it disappeared and I can't even repair it because I don't have that option on playstation 4. Is there anything I can do the next time I make a new save?
Sims 4 Crashes July 2024
I’ve just recently started back playing sims 4 after about a year, - I have Xbox console. All was going well and now I’ve had to constantly reboot, I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I have all expansions besides “growing together”, and I did install the new “lovestruck” the other day. I have kits and packs I have tried uninstalling all of them. I cannot play it due to constant crashing. I cannot build, or do game play. I have tried saving multiple different games, I’ve deleted old saved games, I uninstalled all add ons, nothing seems to be working.. super frustrating and a waste of money at this point. ps.. starting today at 2pm est I have now been unable to log on at all or get past the log in screen. It syncs then just stays on the front screen circling2024 July update
Since the new update in July I can't save my game to existing savegames, either it says save but it doesn't save or I get an "error code: 0" message. I can only save if I create a new save but cannot overwrite my previous one. So please fix the problem, it's quite annoying and stop putting broken updates online. I play on the PS5 and have no mods or CC, the error first appeared on July 24th, 2024 around 7 p.m. my username is Toffifee_x13 and I already tried by starting the game again or the ps5 and it changed nothing the problem is still there.
Unable to save my game
Since the latest update (1.95) I can't open the menu with 3 dots or with ECS therfore I'm anable to save my game or even exit it in a normal way. I have to close my game with task manger and all my progress is gone. Without being able to save my game what is the point of playing? 😭 Also during playing the game (which I cound't save) I noticed that my sims all of the sudden are being mean to each other even though the are in good moods. It's weird and it destroys their relationships which isin't alligned with my intentions. 🤨Save file is GONE :(
Hello, I understand how this game is extremely buggy and it’s not the first time whole save files have gone missing, but is there any way I can retrieve my file? I sound like a loser but I have been playing on this one save file for over two years and it has a ton of extremely detailed and realistic buildings and households that are irreplaceable. Im not the type of person who would download mods or other creator content. I simply loaded up my game casually and it is completely wiped. No save files. No autosaves. Nothing. I tried restarting my game several times but still nothing is showing up. I play on xbox so im not sure if I can look into the files any deeper. If I cant get this save file back i'm so done with this broken game. Thank you.Grim Reaper event rewards keep resetting
I've now restarted the Grim Reaper event multiple times on my PS5 ... and as much as I enjoy gardening in the Sims, planting lilies and snapdragons over and over again is starting to get a little old. Why this is happening, I have no idea, but every time I save and leave the game, my event progress resets like I haven't done any of the tasks. My physical progress is still there, in that the points still show on the Grim Reaper event UI, I still have the reward items in my inventory, etc., but it's like it doesn't remember how I got there. I've noticed that there's a lot of attention being paid to this issue on PC, and several bug fixes have even been found already. Is anyone working on this from the console end of things?Error code 0 PS4
I just had a similar problem but wasn't sure where to post it... For the first time in memory my game failed to save. It said "Error message o". Then when I tried to save again... my previous save file had vanished... which made my heart skip a beat... I created a new save which seems to have worked. If I had lost all previously saved progress I would have been devastated!! Scary glitch!! I've also noticed frozen (non-responsive) Sims more frequently. I have to use the "reset object" cheat almost constantly, now. Traveling crashes the game 50% of the time - but that's been an issue since day one, nothing new there. (PS4 gamer here)
Update possibly broke my game (xbox)
To begin with after the lovestruck update I had noticed going into build mode was unbearably laggy which was fixed by opening the menu. However, yesterday (around 6:30 - 7 Pm) my game had updated, it wasn’t the lovestruck but I guess some sort of technical update. The first issue was I had aged up my sims infant and it ended up doing this weird thing where it went backward to the day before (if that makes sense?). The next issue was that my sims would be completely stuck still and wont respond to any action. Not surprising since I had that issue with the sims 3 however would be a but inconvenient turning on cheats and not being able to get achievements on this certain game. My last issue (bear with me here it’s really hard to explain without seeing it first hand) my game will get stuck trying to switch between sims. It also results in the pause and play glitching as well, and will also cause all the sims the get stuck. My only fix to this is just leaving and reloading. And when I exit my game gets stuck on the loading screen. Sorry for the essay but any input would be awesome!
my sims game keeps bugging after latest update
i have a sims world with 4 played households, and i don’t want to just start a new world. i load into the game, make a few interactions, i try to cook, and then the game just bugs. i can’t pull up the cheat bar to reset sims, i can’t pull up the save menu, my cursor disappears, and i can’t go to manage worlds, when i click manage world the screen just goes black and i’m forced to close the application. i along with help from EA chat support have tried troubleshooting this issue, and nothing seems to work. this all started with the new update.Can‘t download my Packs on the PS5
I wanted to play sims4 on the PS5 and logged in with my Account, where I bought lota of Packa over the years. But I can‘t download them, it says that I don‘t own it. I‘m sure that it is the correct Account because I just checked on my Laptop. When I open one of the Packs I only have the Option to buy it. What could be the problem and how can I solve it?
July 2024 Update for Lovestruck has broken me!
I am an xbox next gen user and I own all packs apart from the new lovestruck, rental, dust bunny and castle estate pack. This new update has broken my sims totally my cursor keeps disappearing and I can't bring up the main menu screen to save it so I have to restart which makes me lose my game play, meaning I have to save every literally every 5 mins, of course I sometimes forget and lose game play, I shouldn't have to be having to do this. PLEASE PLEASE fix this!! its driving me crazy.
