Moving sims 4 from ps4 to ps5
Hi, I have a ps4. I have the physical copy of the sims 4 and then I have multiple expansion packs that I downloaded from the playstation store. I am looking to upgrade to the ps5 but I am just wondering is there a way to transfer all my sims from ps4 to the ps5? Thanks very much
City living/seasons
I just moved my sim out to the city and the same night happened to be the humour and hijinks festival, I noticed the festival was going way past the usual end time and when it came time for the love day event bar to pop up in the corner of my screen it would not. I tried restarting my game but even then it was still bugged and even though I saved, it kicked me back multiple hours.
My sims are glitching
I play sims 4 on the Xbox one. Lately my OG sim household has really bugged out. None of my other sims have done this. My mother sims has become almost none responsive in commands, completely bipolar between rage and depressed she won't do nothing. My father sim seems playable for a little bit but then starts glitching, even getting ready for work hours before it's time. The toddler is about the only playable character per say, other then the fact he's earning skills that are not for toddlers while he's sleeping or has a laundry list of the same skill to do (by its own command). Also when I'm not playing them, the mom and dad are seen not only in thier own world but other worlds as well. (Which I don't believe is suppose to be a thing and yes i have neighborhood stories turned off). I don't know what's wrong with that family but something has definitely glitched in them. Any thoughts, anyway to fix this? And truly it's really only with this family so far I've noticed it glitching like this.
Booted to xbox home page!
I have a xbox one that I play sims 4 on and for some reason EVERY time I play, I see my loading screen and it's almost all the way loaded then it goes black and I'm at the xbox home page. I've done so much to fix it and nothing is working. Just bought 3 sims packs to add to my game and I can't play! Please someone help!
Gallery corrupted??
So, I play on Xbox, (no mods or cc), and when I look at the public gallery everything has the big red X. Whenever I click it asks me if I want to remove it, and if I say yes it tells me to try again later. I don't recall doing anything out of the ordinary with the sims either. Can somebody help please? :)
My sims & City Living disappeared together
hi there! like the title says, both my City Living and my actual sims' household have disappeared. this happened within the last week. when i open the game, it tells me some data isn't available and starts me out in the world mode. when i go to my actual world/my house, it shows my house is vacant. my sims don't even show in the bottom left corner. i've been doing some research and i noticed others say the City Living DLC has been taken off Playstation+ and needs to be purchased to keep playing it. if i purchase it, will it bring back my sims/household too? has anyone else had this issue? i have already tried to uninstall and reinstall, but still no luck. please help lol.
After every pack I buy or download, there's always bugs
I am an Xbox One console player, I've been playing for awhile on console. And it seems like every time I buy a new pack, it bugs my game really bad. I have bought a handful of packs over the last couple of years, most recently, literally yesterday, purchased Horse Ranch expansion pack.I am just now beginning to play it today, and my game is bugging really bad to the point where I am trying to customize the house and go to arrange something or add something to a room.. as soon as I click to place anything, sofas, beds, wallpaper, it does not place and acts as if I can't place it. I tried to move furniture and then it disappeared! I play with bb moveobjects on so I can move furniture/objects where I want them, but that has NEVER caused me problems. In this particular problem, trying to place wallpaper, click and drag to place it will not place it, either. Just goes back to being the white wall. Also, I was going to try to save and go to the main menu and go back in, but it will NOT let me save it at all!! Just stays stuck loading, just as in the picture I am including... so I'm upset that now I'm going to have to start the build all over that I've been working on for hours, including making the 4 Sims I made for that particular build, hours before that.This bug has not happened to me before. But this will probably be the last pack I buy for a long time due to every time I ever buy a pack I want, there's some kind of bug in my gameplay afterwards.. ALWAYS. I hate to resort to this, as I love this game and very much looking forward to new packs, but I have spent SO MUCH MONEY for packs on this game, so until these bugs are under control, I can not justify to purchase another pack.
Library Corruption/Deletion
This is the second time this has happened to me. I try saving something to my library and it says my library is full. Cool, I'll just delete some things. So I do and I can't save anything else still. So at that point it's whatever I'll just continue playing the game and come back later. I eventually close the game and when I come back (since this is the second time), I have a pretty good idea of what to expect when I get a message along the lines of "something happened to this application after it was closed" and "Corrupted data." So I of course check my saves and they're fine, great. I check my library and it's nothing but Maxis. This becomes frustrating when one it's happened before, and two, this means any save file that I retired or replaced, I no longer have those sims, houses, anything. It's fine when I can go and reupload my sims and builds that already exist in game, but what about the sims I never got to add to my game? The builds I never got to finish? Sometimes I'll play with genetics for a couple and make their kids beforehand so they don't have outrageous looking children, or I'll make sims so my already existing sims can make friends, have relationships, etc., I'll make townies to add more to the game, and I'll save a build so that I can finish it some other time and overwrite the file for whatever extra story I wanna make. Then of course the typical houses, venues, and things that can be searched up. I can't search up what I hadn't published No where can I find my library storage limit. I don't know when it's full and going to corrupt until it happens. So I then have to take the time to hurry and save all my households across all my save files. Favoriting things hardly works either. I don't want to fill up my library, so my next solution would be to favorite things right? Only a fraction of what I favorite ends up in my favorites. When I was a new player I went on a favoriting spree, when I go to look through it and see what I wanna do with these sims and builds, I see not even half of what I thought I added. Not in my library either. So I learned early on to just save to my library, but now it seems I can't do that without an eventual repercussion. I really hope this is just an awful bug and not an intended mechanic. Not sure if it's because I deleted Maxis items. I don't use or want those sims or builds in comparison to the things I saved, actually wanting them to be there. I genuinely have no idea why this occurs besides me having a full library.
Just bought lovestruck on sale. Broke my legacy game.
Lovestruck not working with my legacy saves. I make lots of saves (I rotate between 4 saves as a trauma response from a corrupted Morrowind file in my 20s). I tried loading them all and all saves are broken. I've tried everything, clearing cache, deleting save data. Uninstalling and reinstalling Laundry day and HS years allowed me to open save without error but game is laggy and Sims bugging and glitching so bad it's unplayable. Currently just uninstalled everything and hard reset Xbox and unplugged for five minutes. Going to try a fresh install and report back. My heart is broken. I have only ever played one game and world.

Sims resets and T poses
Since the last update, games been working like a dream for me, however the past week or so since the life and death update Ive noticed that I'm getting a lot of automatic SIM resets and T poses. Like I'll have a queue of fairly normal things for Sims to do and they'll cancel the first half way thru stand idle for a moment then T pose and all the things ice asked them to do get cancelled off. It used to happen on the odd very rare occasion but now it's like as soon as a SIM has more than 3 things queued everyone just resets Anyone else?
Initial loading screen stuck/extremely slow when online
Im on XB1, all packs, all updates. When I start the game while online, the initial loading screen (when loading the game itself, not a savegame) will always get stuck on about a quater of the way, sometimes it will move again after a loong time and sometimes it wont at all. If I start the game while offline this wont happen, no getting stuck and initial loading is waaay quicker. While its good that at least it always works offline, this of course means I cant use any online features while playing, since even if I reconnect after the initial load the game wont go back online completely (meaning the main menu will change to its online view but the gallery still wont show up and things like the reaper event wont work) and wants a restart which is obviously unhelpful. I also tried to "connect EA account" thinking that might get the game completely online again but everytime I click it the game crashes. So for now I pretty much can only play offline, which sucks.
Missing Build Mode Items
After the last update and downloading Life &Death pack I no longer show any tile from the For Rent pack. The game still recognizes I own For Rent but the Low Tiled Mosiac for walls in the tiles category is no longer available even though my home has this swatch in my build. Any one else experiencing this.
Crashing repeatedly
Ever since I bought the new life-and-death, Sims pack my game crashes to travel my game crashes to go into CAS my game crashes to go to owned restaurants my game crashes to go to other towns my game crashes in build mode, placing things, my game keeps continually crashing, and it also crashes when I go to work, my game crashes at least 5 to 6 times during the duration of my playtime, I forgot to mention it also crashes when making events or funerals. I am on console PlayStation 5 I do not use mods
Changing game language (PS5)
Hello! My boyfriend and I live in the Netherlands and he downloaded The Sims 4 in the Netherlands. The game is available in Dutch. I’d like to change the game language to Chinese because I’m learning the language. When I change the language of the PS5 to Chinese, the game starts up in English. I have tried this in Spanish too. I have tried both changing the language and restarting the game, and changing the language and then redownloading the game. Both of these result in the game booting up in English. I’ve seen online that only certain languages are available for copies downloaded in certain regions. I’m here to ask; is there a way around this? Can I download The Sims 4 in Chinese without losing my worlds in the Dutch version? What can I do? Thank you so much!Internet problem
Hello, I have a problem. I have an internet connection but in the game they tell me that I'm not connected! I can't use water or the lights. Everything that works with the internet doesn't work. I've tried to restart the console, uninstall the game and a thousand other things but it still doesn't work! Can someone help me?
