@Creeper545548I loaded up my sims 4 after months of not playing and recently purchase LD, and now some of my worlds are completely cluttered and unplayable, especially San Myshuno. EA can you please fix? This rendered my savefile unable to be loaded into in some worlds.

It actively stops me from playing the game. My save file is ruined (started in 2017 mind you) and any new existing save files will keep cluttering up items and then unable to play.

@Creeper545548 This problem affects these type of lots: residential rentals, apartments in San Myshuno and Evergreen Harbour, penthouses and dormitories in Britechester.
There's hope when they speak about this problem on twitter. I hope they really fix every lot type that is affected.

With what the sims direct said on twitter about the overlapping festival and floating objects. I have hopes this bug gets fixed too since the floating stuck objects could be tided to it. Fingers crossed. I really want to go back to my main saves and play with my r-rentals. For rent is a pack I use a lot. I was also planning on building a lot with 2 houses as a r-rental in ravenwood but I'm not risking this bug breaking my saves.

Ay, this is a tremendous problem, and it renders huge portions of the game unplayable. I was very disappointed not to see this mentioned in the last laundry list. Y'all in the thread are heroes for posting that Sims4Studio solution, but it's a very tedious process. I've managed to clean up my game, but I pretty much have to use TOOL to delete the whole neighborhood any time I leave a San Myshuno lot.
It looks like it's more likely to affect longterm saves, but I've had flea market items become stuck and unselectable after a single festival. Fortunately, I only have to deal with this in one world - this must be hellish for those with For Rent, and I hope no one purchases it while this bug is around.

Hey EA./Sims team. Since you said your looking into the Overlapping Festivals. Hopefully this gets look into too. I have been unable to play my main saves since the Life and Death patch when this bug got introduced since I'm not trying to break those saves. If this bug is tided to overlapping festival then hopefully this gets fixed too. Anyway have a great evening everyone and keep your reports coming and send saves if needed.

And don't use any residential rentals. Especially those can be bloated without noticing and make at leats the neighborhood unplayable.

I've been having the same bug for a while now. At first I thought it was just a few objects and maybe they would get cleaned up after I left the lot. San Myshuno is a MESS right now. Ghost coffee cups and vanilla cupcakes everywhere. I really love San Myshuno but I'm not going to risk my 13-generation save to live there. I also won't be sending my sims to university anytime soon... I really, really hope this gets fixed asap.

I don't want any new items, packs or challenges or whatever, I just want the game to be properly playable.
