Re: Loading households returns me to world map

Hey there @mamdragon415 

Are you seeing any error codes or error messages when this happens? Have you tested a different save file as well?

  • No error codes or messages come up. Whenever i select a household the normal wait screen and loading bar appear but as soon as it finishes loading it simply reverts to the world menu again. I normally just resume play from the main menu so when this began I tried loading saves from the main menu to play but they all do the same thing.

    It's sounding like you may have corrupt save files in this case- can you try starting a brand new save file and let me know if the same issue occurs there?

    Thanks, it sounds like you may have a corrupt save file- let's try a brand new save to see if the error persists there as well. 

    To start a new save file, from the main menu of The Sims, you'll select the "New Game" option.

    Oh are u saying test the new file with the same household with the error code or test with a new game with new household like with my other households because when I click on my other households to play them it works perfectly but when I do a new game it’s still an error with the same household but with an different error code because this time I moved the household into another lot but I did do a new saved household in the same lot that the other error code was giving me and nothing that I have tried still worked

    You need to start a brand new save file (not a new household within the same save file) and test this with a brand new family. If you see any error codes on a brand new save file, please let me know.

    From the main menu of The Sims, instead of clicking on Load Game, or resume, you're going to select New Game. This will load a brand new save file, and you can create a new family to test out.

    does the new family have to be new or can I put the same family in there?

    Apologies for the delay on this.

    If it's the house that's causing the issue, try bulldozing and replacing this lot, or placing this house on a different lot instead.
