Build mode
This week my game is giving me trouble that I can’t seem to fix. During build mode, I can only add, delete or move once; after that i can’t do anything else, I have to start all over again and go back to live mode and then build mode. It’s the only way that I found to keep playing but it’s so frustrating. I don’t know what else I can do. Help!
I beg
Listen please don’t ban me I beg. I am low key heartbroken 😢. My man signed out my ps5 account on ps5. Normally when you do this everything is still saved. But when I logged back in everything from sims was gone. Fully. Nuttin but start new game. The saves I spent years building… all my sims. Gone. Like thousands and thousands of hours no cap. All of the limited edition items I spent time doing the challenges all gone 😢 do you know if there’s any way I can get it back ? The saves anything? At the very least the limited edition stuff? I’m an OG sims 4 player since day 1 but now I feel like a freshie 😢I really don’t know what to do or how to fix it. I beg 😢 all my families , houses , apartments , buildings 😢😭😭 💔💔💔 like frfr 😭 please help yes I buy all the packs, I even have two copies of most cause I brought them on Mac too so I can play when my man’s on ps. I know I haven’t invested as much as shareholders but I’ve defo invested more than your average customer 😭 I’ll do anything I swear .. I’ll even do all those challenges again to get the limited edition stuff if you let me 😭… but if that’s just to rack up game play hours i swear I give you more game play hours in build mode and cas.Gallery family’s missing
Sorry if this has already been solved I can’t find my original post and I really want to fix it because it’s been making avoid playing the sims😭. But ever since the update all of the families I’ve saved into my gallery are all gone with just the base game families remaining. I’m not sure what’s wrong since all the homes I’ve made are still there just my families from the gallery are missing and all my saved games have all remained the same it’s just my gallery??
[BG] Child Sim Action Queue Filling up with interactions
This is to do with the base game. My child Sim’s Action Queue keeps filling up with the dancing interaction and then the actions delete themselves. I’ve got a video showing this. I’m not able to upload it to here, but I’ll upload it to somewhere else and send a link. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0f6Aju61IzDgVrjaApieU4ZSg Yes, there is music playing at the same time as this is happening and my Sim is already doing something else.
Disappearing pictures and blank funeral photos
Pictures that I take with cameras/phones, always disappear whenever I save my game before getting off, and log in the next day the pictures are all blacked out. Also for funeral pictures, I select a sim and then the frame goes blank. Before it was working fine but now everything is disappearing.
Xbox.career.reaper Broken.
The option to go to work is now limited to just sending your sim to work. There's not even a menu that pops up anymore. Therefore making a certain task completely impossible. I've tried following all the online advice and nothing works. I think I may have figured it out however. I think it has to do with multiple Sims and a household. More than one to be specific. I think it may work if you started the career or the first time with a single household member and had that household number be the only household member. Not going to do all the testing of that now. It was fine before the update.Game won't download, keeps stopping.
After the recent update on Dec 2, it wouldn't let me open the game cuz it was updating then out of no where it stopped and started saying "Installation stopped. Press (A) to retry or get more details". I did that then it says there's a problem with this game, and "In your queue, cancel the install for %2 and then try reinstalling it. (0x87e00031)" So I did that still having the same problem, I've restarted my console, un-installed and reinstalled the game, and done all the troubleshooting steps Google has provided and still having the same issue, and my DLCs will download, but not my game. If anyone has an answer to my issue please lmk.Issues with the sims 4 on Xbox/anyone have any advice?
Hey guys, I’ve been playing the sims 4 on my Xbox one s since 2017ish I don’t remember exactly when cause it was such a long time ago. I have a lot of packs installed but not all, as I’ve had it for so long and it’s always been my favourite game. However recently I’ve been thinking about upgrading in the near future to an Xbox series X. I know that the Xbox isn’t the ideal platform for the sims 4 but for my current situation, it’s the only option as swapping to PS5 or PC is financially out of reach. If any of you have been playing this game for a long time like me and have ended up upgrading to the series X, would you recommend it? have you come across any issues (major or minor)? My Xbox one doesn’t run the game very well anymore and I think that’s a mix of the console being old and the sims not being built for Xbox. Everytime i try to start up the game, my Xbox tells me that’s it’s taken to long for my game to start and gives me an error code. This has been happening to me for a long time now and nothing works to solve it other than waiting a long time and repetitively trying to open the sims or launching another game before trying to launch the sims. Is this still an issue on the Xbox series x? i have come across some forums reporting issues of the game not launching and constantly crashing and tbh I'm not willing to risk all of my saves, packs, creations and money if the series x isn’t significantly better than the one s and carries the same issues. I also don’t want to end up with some unsolvable issues as I know that contacting EA about technical issues and in game issues rarely get anywhere (especially for console players) Im not very tech savvy so upgrading to a newer Xbox is intimidating to me but id be willing to do it if it made my gaming experience (especially with the sims) run smoother. Im currently researching if the upgrade is worth it and if there are any current major issues with the Xbox series x running the sims 4, but can’t come to an answer. That’s why I’m asking anyone who has upgraded to try and offer me some advice. sorry I know this is quite long. It’s my first ever post just to seek some advice. thank you!! :)
