- @DeanXeL I was really done replying to you 😂 but I just have to say that I went and tried to use a save from like 20 minutes earlier and it WORKED! I still saved it onto a new save file so I could use the lot that didn’t work before, but now I have all their stuff and relationships and family tree! 😭 I’m still going to make a test save of it to make sure the problem doesn’t happen again :’)
- @preciousbun all the better, no? ;-)
Happy simming! - crinrict3 years agoHero+
@preciousbun Sorry to interfere here but did you already delete your save game that's corrupted ? With 102 it could be a game bug that needs looking at by the devs. It's one of the error codes which can be either mods and cc or an actual problem with the game.
I did read the entire conversation but I want to be absolutely sure I understand what's working and what not.
1. You removed all your mods/CC and deleted the localthumbcache file but it still didn't work with your old save
2. When you moved everything to your new save it worked with both mods/no mods ?
Or did it suddenly start working on the old save when removing mods ?
If it's 1 and you still have the save, would you mind sending it to me ? Instructions can be found in my signature. @crinrictHi yes it didn’t work even when I’d removed all mods & cc and delete the localthumbnailcache, but then today I decided to try and play the OG save but use an earlier version of the save and it worked with my mods then! I still saved it to a new save file after that to get my bugged lot to work 🙂
I just moved the corrupt save version onto my desk so I technically still have the file if you still want me to send it?- crinrict3 years agoHero+@preciousbun yes, that would be good to find out what's wrong with it.
@crinrictOkay so I’ve compressed the file into a zip folder but I don’t quite understand how to upload it to google drive so I can send you a link?
edit: I think I got it, I’ll pm you the link then
@preciousbun
- go to https://drive.google.com/
- log in using your google account
- click on the big plus to upload a new file
- right click the file and select share
- change the access rights on the bottom of the pop-up from limited to everyone with the link
- copy the link, press the ready button and send it to them- @DeanXeL Ah okay then I did it the right way thankfully, good to know! ☺️
- @crinrict I’ve sent the link now! Let me know if there’s anything else you need to know or anything
- crinrict3 years agoHero+@preciousbun Thanks. I'll take a look tomorrow evening.

@preciousbun Seems the issue is with Kenji. Not exactly sure what's going on. I'll pass on your save to a CM so EA can look into it. It's def reproducible without mods.
EDIT: So it seems it's an issue with the career. If you quit the career (you would need MCCC to do that), the lot loads again.
Questions: Did you have a custom holiday that gave them time off shorty before the error occurred ? Did you ever mess around with the time settings through MCCC (make it go faster or slower) ? - @crinrict Sorry for the late reply! But hmm okay that actually makes some sense now when I think about it… Some time ago I had a similar issue with another sim who lived in Mt.Komorebi and worked in the Salary career that came with the pack. That sim got corrupted so I had to delete him, couldn’t just kill him off, and then I could play the family again.
Didn’t think about that until now but it does seem similar. I do have custom holidays and there might have been one shortly before I don’t remember exactly now. I haven’t messed with time by making it skip ahead or anything with MC for a very long time. Only did it once over a year ago and then never again so it shouldn’t be a problem? I’ve changed the age span of teenagers to 14 days, but it shouldn’t cause such problems? :0
Now how do I quit his career through MC? I can’t just make him quit it normally? I’m quite convinced now that it’s the career that’s causing problems somehow since this is my second sim in that career that has been affected in this way
(Thank you for looking into it!) - crinrict3 years agoHero+
@preciousbun Seems there's also a cheat
careers.remove_career <career> <simID>
Instructions for MCCC
in the cheats bar, try putting mccc kenji tanaka and then following the paths to do
MCCC > MC Cheats > Cheat Sim Info > Career Cheats > Reset Career Branch
and
MCCC > MC Cheats > Cheat Sim Info > Career Cheats > Quit Job
You can also try loading another household and then force invite the Sim over with MCCC and then find the interaction by clicking on the Sim.
(thanks to Sims After Dark Discord for exact instructions on that)The career does seem to have some issues. I'm moving this over to bugs.
