Please use this thread going forward: Save Game Corruption (Disappearing Lots/Error 800 or 801) | EA Forums - 5037272
I attempted to use the control sim mod in an effort to prompt the lot owner, who I was unable to log in, to sell the property that I had already sold in manage worlds. Unfortunately, my efforts were in vain as the lot remained unplayable. I found myself unable to enter build mode to make any changes to the lot. I have three lots with exclamation points in Willow Creek, indicating a spreading issue. In an attempt to resolve the issue, I used the mcc mod to teleport the affected sim off the corrupted lot, but encountered difficulties switching to that household, he was also not recognized as the apartment owner. When he attempted to return home, the game displayed error code 800 and failed to load any further. I had no choice but to reload the game and add him to a family in order to remove him from the problematic lot. The issue seemed to extend to Oakenstead, the neighboring lot beside it and Potters Splay. I typically remove mods after use, but in this case, the problem persisted. Occasionally, upon logging in, I would notice that the lot behind Oakenstead displayed differently, yet remained inaccessible.When encountering the 800 error code, players are abruptly redirected to the manage worlds screen, leaving them with no alternative but to restart the game. Furthermore, any lots marked with exclamation marks become inaccessible, and even if players manage to gain entry, you will find them devoid of any structures or amenities but manage worlds shows the lot intact.
There is an abundance of bugs present that I could easily compose an extensive book solely dedicated to this topic.
I have decided to embark on a unique and determined journey, where I will only reside in tents and passionately rally against the persistent bug issues in Sims 4. In my unwavering commitment to this cause, I pledge to refrain from constructing any new structures or acquiring any additional items, expansions, packs, etc. until all the glitches have been rectified. We want a better gaming experience for all, right now!!.
I have spent my sim time in Batuu today and when I returned from vacation, I discovered that the place had expanded to include four lots with floating exclamation points. This growth seems to be spreading rapidly, like a contagious virus. I am intrigued by this phenomenon and am closely observing how it will continue to spread to every lot. The tent lot is the only one I am actively interacting with, as I monitor the ongoing spread of this virus like bug.
Well, that is really interesting. I can say that I am another victim of save file corruption with exclamation mark over the same lot you mentioned… for the second time trying to rebuild my save and today… again. I don’t know why… what’s happening, why this is spreading like a virus… but I am going to sue EA and the team because after spending so much time on creating lots and families I can now lost everything. If they don’t refund me the money for the broken game, I will find all these users with the corrupted save files and we will se what they will tell then because all I can see now is they are making idiots from us who will buy every pack even if it is broken. They do not care about us and the bugs. That’s the sad true. And yes, I can say it started with The Sims 4 Rent. 6 months after release and still the same issue. Wow.
