Persistent Freezing and Crashing in Sims 4 - No Mods or CC

Hello 

I've been experiencing ongoing issues with my Sims 4 game that I believe may be caused by a bug. The game consistently freezes and crashes during gameplay. My Sims will sometimes be unable to enter their homes and remain stuck outside. When in Build Mode, especially while placing lots, the game slows down drastically, freezes or loads the lot incorrectly, houses will often appear disheveled or partially unloaded. Game cannot shut down properly, so I must always do a force shut down or "End Task"

Initially I assumed the problem was related to outdated custom content or mods. I spent over a month testing using the 50 50 method and eventually narrowed it down to just one mod. However, even with all mods and CC removed the game continued to crash.

Here's what I’ve already tried

Cleared all cache files

Repaired the game twice via the EA app

Created a completely new Sims 4 folder and started a fresh save as suggested by Discord support

Despite all these steps, the game continues to crash and freeze. These issues have been occurring for several months now, and I’ve exhausted all troubleshooting steps I’m aware of. I strongly suspect there may be a bug or deeper issue within the game itself.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
