Sim/Neighborhood CorruptionSim Corruption comes in all kinds of flavors and has been going on for a while. Sims get stuck (on objects, on beds, on each other), jump out of interactions, turn invisible and as a ultimate corruption you loose your UI. There's a loooong thread on the issue in the technical forum:
Lags & Invisible, Frozen & Stuck Sims. I can't help out over there right now but there are lots of people with long time experience with the issue. You also find some info on it linked in the first post.
What can you do when it happens to you ?First thing you can try (if you are not opposed to mods that is) is try if Twallan's
ErrorTrap or
Overwatch can save anything. It's important that you are patch level 1.26 to use ErrorTrap. You might find ScriptErrors after that in your documents folder. Post them in Twallan's forum. He can help you out. NOT here, I can't really read most of them.
That didn't workIf you are attached to your family/town, I would suggest, moving everything to a new town. Unfortunately with the EA approach you loose all your relationships this way (you won't loose any skills this way). You could also use the
Twallan's Porter to achieve the same AND keep your relationships.
Na, still nothingThen I would suggest,
resetting your user data and start a brand new game. I can be hard, I know but sometimes it's the only way to still enjoy the game.
The corruption might come back after a while so I do recommend using
Overwatch to prevent most of the causes of this corruption.
If really nothing helps at all, you might need to reinstall your game, clean your registry and defrag your computer.
