The build in the gallery is titled "Horse Ranch (Unfinished)" and the family is titled "Georgia Ridley", both made by "jujudani".

Thanks! I downloaded your ranch and household and placed them on the 64x64 Lot in Chestnut Ridge and in Windenburg and tested on my Intel Mac and my M1 MacBook Air (which will be the same spec as your Mac mini) reproducing the steps in your second post with placing trees and a room. The game is still working normally for me. I let it run for around 20 real time minutes on each without any interference from me. I tested in a clean Sims 4 folder. Could you try the same?- vanillabean32 years agoNew Traveler
Hey, I tried building on the lot with a clean Sims 4 folder and unfortunately the same problem is still happening for me. I started by building a room on the lot and then if I remember right I had also deleted two walls that were inside of the house in order to open up a room and this is when the bug started happening (if I try to make any other changes to my build like building a room or placing down an object like a tree they just disappear). I would suggest you try replicating the actions I described in my first post in the "How can we find the bug ourselves?" part if you haven't tried this, because in the second post I made I was just describing what happens once the bug is occurring. I think once or twice after the first time I experienced this bug it took a while of building rooms, changing wall heights, placing stairs, placing platforms, etc. before the bug was triggered again, but most times the bug occurred almost immediately after I started building.
By the way, when using my original Sims 4 folder I tested building on a different lot in the same save file and I was able to build a whole retail store with no issues, so the problem seems to only occur on my Horse Ranch build for some reason. So this is kind of good news, but I still would really like to get this problem resolved if possible so that I will not have to rebuild a whole new house on the same 64x64 lot from scratch and just hope that the bug doesn't start happening again.

I played around with the lot and still did not experience the issue you're having. It must be a very specific trigger for it to happen. Your lot was way smoother on my MacBook Air (2020 M1 8-core CPU, 7-core GPU, 16-core neural engine, 8GB unified memory, macOS 14.1) than on my iMac (2019 27", 3.6GHz i9 8-core CPU, 8GB AMD Radeon Pro 580X GPU, 32GB RAM macOS 13.4). I attribute that to the amazing Apple silicon chips though. Intel feels so clunky now 🙂
Moving your thread to the Game issues forum for further help. I don't believe this is a Mac specific issue. Your Macs are more than capable of running the game well. If it happened on one and not the other I would say it may be a localised issue but both? No. Although, did you happen to use Migration Assistant when you set up your MBA?It would really help if you could get that video up and running to show the problem. Maybe upload to YouTube unlisted and post the link here?
