I've had this game for a few years and have never had a bug like this. It's made the lots I've tried to place Community Spaces unplayable. Please fix this. This is ridiculous.&nbsp;&nbsp;

@Blackbird0318 What do you mean by no links to any build objects ?

I'm not having any freezing when placing community spaces. I tried both from the map and while I'm on the lot with a Sim. There are lots that can crash your game but it's usually just a specific upload

Did you try several lots or just different community spaces on the same lot ? Did you delete your localthumbcache file after removing mods as well as try to repair the game ?

Yeah that's you, bro. I've tried several lots randomly and each time it's made that lot completely unplayable in build mode. Sims can visit but it's turned into just a "Generic" lot. Can't play it as intended. I mean the build objects tabs disappear. The only way out of the screen is to turn the game completely off. I've tried what I can and it's just bugged. It's only under bugged under "Community Space". None of the others are affected.&nbsp;
