    I found a solution. 

    Go to:

    - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims Legacy Collection

    - Copy the folder named all "UserData" (Also UserData2,3,4 up to 8, those are the extra neighborhoods)

    -Paste all "UserData"(and UserData2,3,etc) in C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Saved Games\Electronic Arts\The Sims 25

Wanted to reply to say I'm experiencing exactly the same issues.

First start-up crashes the game on the grey loading screen. Starting it again gets to the home screen with blank neighborhoods. I can click on any of them except Downtown, which crashes the game. I cannot click to create a new family, as it crashes the game. None of the crashes give pop-ups or error reports/numbers.

I'm launching from Steam. I just installed it today and the patches are up-to-date. Computer and graphics card are up-to-date. Attached is my dxdiag.
