Sims 4 stuck in loading screen

Made an account just to figure out my issue and most likely won’t come back if i fix it.

My game has been stuck of the loading screen every time i open my save and had been like this for around an hour if i add up the separated times. I’ve reinstalled the game, deleted my mods, and nothing is working. How do i fix this?

  • I have been having this same exact issue for the past few days. I have tried everything too; repairing my game, deleting mods, trying other saves to see if it was a corrupt save, clearing the cache, updated my laptop. Still an endless loading screen. It will load in just fine till I click resume game and then it gets stuck.

  • V1en_11​  Please try loading a different household within the same save, using Load Game rather than Resume.  If that doesn't work, try a new save, for comparison's sake.

    If loading the other household does work, play it for a few sim-hours, then try to load your main one.  If you still can't, quit and reload, use Load Game, and move your main household to a different lot.  This is to test whether the problem is the sims or their house; you don't need to save your progress.

  • wisepoppy11553​  When you say you've tried other saves, do they load or not?  Can you load a different household within an affected save?  What about a new save?

    If you can't load any saves at all, please provide a dxdiag.  Click Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
