dlc from steam is not intalling
I have purchased 11 dlc packs through Steam. They show that they are "owned" in game but will not install them. I previously had a different PC, and recently upgraded to a new one, but ever since then, these dlcs are not installing. I tried re-installing the game itself through both Steam and EA many different times in the past few months, but nothing has worked. I ultimately gave up a while ago but have really been wanting to play the game lately. To be clear, my game has no issue running at all and I don't have any mods turned on. The only issue is that when I try to load an old save that included those dlcs, it says they are not yet installed. This happened every time I tried to re-download the game. I've only been able to get 3 kits to install via the Pack Selection in the My Collection tab of the Marketplace within the game itself. But it will not even give the option to do so with the expansion packs, game packs and stuff packs that I already own. Can anyone help me?
Game crashing when opening game after August 6th Patch
Hi ! I hope someone can help with this or make sure it gets where its supposed to! ^^ I just updated my game to todays August 6th Patch update & when I tried opening my game, it got stuck on loading screen for several minutes, I decided to force-close the game, remove my mods, repair the game, delete all things related to cache & lastthumbnailcache & tried again WITHOUT any mods or CC at all! Zero, zip, nada! And the game still stuck me on an infinite loading screen that lasted for exactly 3 minutes before the game crashed itself. So, to summarize, I tried twice. With mods & then without. I also am very diligent about what & where I download stuff so I know its not a mod or I would've already updated/removed it. EDIT: Attached the DxDiag !Gallery Corrupted
After the updated August 6th, my game seems to be working okay.. apart from the gallery. Anytime I load it up and try to place a lot, room or household it says it is corrupted and cannot place. I have removed and disabled mods, deleted localthumb cashe and repaired the game but still nothing. Any help or experiencing something similar??
travel crash
whenver i try to make my sim go home, my game stays on the loading screen and it crashes. i'm unsure how to troubleshoot it or just to stop playing entirely. I've tried managing it, but since i got the game through steam, I'm unsure what to do. I know about the fix today, so hopefully that helps. thank you for your time!SAVE ISSUES
Hey guys, can anyone help? I have two separate games on sims 4 that I use and both were manually saved however the other day after using one game for most of the day when I went onto the loaded game section to find the other game it had disappeared and I don't know how to get it back. I tried to use EA support but nothing they suggested worked. Only the other game appears even through recover save.
Can't use or sell small business venue
Probably my fault for trying to be too clever, but I tried to start up a second small business, so bought a second small business premises. Then as it didn't show up in the list to assign a business to, I sold the first small business I owned. Now I still own both small business venues, but I'm trying to set up a new business and it won't save if I alter lot 1 for the new business type and it doesn't list lot 2 to use. Nor can I sell either lot. So I currently own a small business residential and two small business venues, but have no small business on either lot and I can't sell them to start again. Any suggestions please? I don't use any mods.
My sims wont save if I put down game clutter?
Ive had this issue since the update, because right after it was when I completely wiped all my sims data, fixed up my mods and started sims new, but since then ive had issues where my game just refuses to save after I place down clutter items? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. I can put down game and cc beds, bedside tables, counters, toilets, ect - all that necessary stuff including things like couches and TV's, but as soon as I put down clutter or plants, it just wont save?? Idk what to doFor Rent Corruption
Does anyone know if For Rent is still corrupting saves if you have a lot of clutter or a lot of rental properties? I stopped playing a year ago because of it and having kept up with the updates to know if it’s been fixed or not. If it hasn’t, does anyone know if there are certain ways to avoid save corruption besides using no decor or rental properties? I’m a big decorator and planned on making a legacy/storyline save using one (JUST ONE) rental property.
Sims 4 on My PC keeps crashing
I play Sims 4 on PC and yesterday it is crashing like crazy. So i took out my mods i installed except for MC Command Center, Twisted Mexi;s Mod Guard and Better Exceptions, Wonderful whims and xml injector. but the game still crashes when you try to save form build mode or just to manage world screen. And even just whenever it want to crash. Those mod are all the updated versions too. this is bizarre and I'm at my whits end!!
Game Crashes In Build Mode
Does anyone know what build mode Mods/CC are broken after about fifteen minutes of playing in build mode my game freezes and crashes I don't think it is any of my mods, but I just am unsure if there is one that I don't know about. I was having this problem without mods last week ever since the last update with the auto save, but now it seems when I have mods that it crashes.The interface is flickering
I log into the game and the game interface starts to flicker: the time icon, the relationship panel. Sometimes there are flashes of red / green / blue color on the whole screen. The video shows exactly how the relationship panel flickers in the game. Mods are turned off! What to do?
When can we expect Dine Out to start working?
Dine out is one of my favorite add-ons; however, it has been weeks since I have been able to use it because the game will not let me transfer funds to the restaurant owned by my sim. My business funds are always $0 so I never have enough to even open the restaurant.All DLCs are missing
I've bought 4 DLCs in the last year. When loading up my game after that big update, they're all gone, with no info about it to be found. I can't find anyone saying anything similar and I can't find a number or email to contact a human, just an ai chat bot thats complely unhelpful
