Overwrite lots in gallery

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PlayStation 5
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 5.0.1
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover university Seasons Cats and dogs Get to work Dream home decorator Realm of magic Parenthood Vampires Moschino My first pet Backyard Romaric garden Perfect patio The free stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Step 1: Save a lot and share to the gallery. Step 2: Overwrite the lot some times (I did it 4 times) Step 3: Go to gallery and the lot was not overwritten but created as new (4 times for me - bug 1. I did not save with “save as new” option) Step 4: Delete the other versions and keep the far left one (suspected it’s as the latest version). At this point in time I had on all versions likes and downloads. Step 5: View the lot in the gallery. Bug described down.
What happens when the bug occurs? It seems it can’t load the lot. I can’t do any changes (description or remove). I can like scroll or see in detail lot characteristic but can’t edit. Restarted the game, it’s the same, even after a day. Changed account on ps (on the same console) and she arched the lot. I could view it properly and like / download. I do that and then switch back to mine. Everything is fine. Bug 1: overwrite works as a save new Bug 2: loading lot in gallery for eternity.
What do you expect to see? One lot in gallery when I overwrite (if you care for versioning at least make the latest version only available for download. I had activity on all of them; users who downloaded it can get a notification or something). Lot to stop loading after some time in the case described above. Ps work on this form. Not mobile friendly at all. Expected to check game packs/ expansion/ stuff not write manually. If I specify console the below question is redundant.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Didn’t get the chance. I’m sorry

  • @PetiteRoruxe Let me see if I have this correct.

    You are overwriting a lot in the gallery or your personal library? You cannot overwrite lots loaded in the gallery, you can only delete them and re-upload if you want to update them. Only your personal library will overwrite, but it will not overwrite gallery uploaded lots.

    Deleting a lot from your library that is listed as uploaded to the gallery will not remove it from the gallery, you have to delete from the gallery.

    If you haven't, please shut down your console completely (not sleep mode) and then see if the duplicates are still there in the gallery.
