Error Code 132:<Various Numbers>, Corrupt Ladders

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.104.58.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? This is only reproducible on lots that already have corrupted ladders. ---- Try to load a lot that has corrupt ladders (no idea how they corrupt
What happens when the bug occurs? Instead of the lot loading you will be booted back to to the map and get an error code 132: There's also a lastException file being created that points towards a ladder being the problem.
What do you expect to see? No error code and the household to load.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

To find out if you have this or another 132, check the Last Exception file found in documents. Open it with a text editor and check if it says anything about ladders. If it does, this is your problem.

For Mod users or people not afraid to try a mod solution.

  1. Download TwistedMexis AllCheasts Mod. This mod will allow you to use all game cheats that have been disabled by EA. If you use MC Command Center or other mods that do the same, you won't need this. For convienence I also recommend Better Cheat Console which allows you to copy/paste from the cheat console.
  2. Backup your save game and load that backup.
  3. Load your game with Load instead of Resume.
  4. Open the lot in build mode from the map
  5. Open the cheat console and type: objects.list adder (this is not a typo)
  6. You will see list of ladders. Next to the object you will see an ID (0x0...).
  7. Start with the top one and delete all the ladders with the cheat: objects.destroy <ID>.  Test after every ladder if it starts loading. If there's lots of ladders you can also delete them in groups.
  8. Once you found the ladder(s) that are causing the issue, you can either just leave them all out and go back to playing or you can load your current game and delete just the ladder that was giving issues. The ID stays the same so you can just use the destroy cheat (AllCheat still necessary)

For People on Console/Not wanting to use mods

I'm afraid I don't have a solution. You can try to just manually delete all the ladders on your lot but sometimes that causes issues.

    @Simmy86 The numbers are unique so if you know the number, it shouldn't matter but if you don't, I'm not sure if you can load a lot in the same neighborhood and get the number.

    Maybe there's more going on your lot.

    Can you try the following: Load a nearby lot in build mode, pan around a bit, go back to map, try loading the one that gives errors again.
  • I'm playing with lovestruck and I moved to the Torres Amanecer lot, built the house, played with the sims, but when I close the game and try to return, it keeps loading forever. I did some tests, in other houses I can play with the family but in this specific lot I can't. I followed the instructions in the topic without success, but the error I have is: 132:dad724e4:e59e6c62 any idea what it could be? (sorry for the English, I'm from Brazil and used the translator)

    Yes, I have a swimming pool, but I have already removed it and the entire outside room, without success. I also tested the stairs, there was only one, I also removed it.

    @liashiroma

    Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

    Best is to delete the ones you have, then trigger the error and check if new ones are created.

    If that is the case, please upload them to a new post in this thread.

    Please either create a .rar file to upload or copy/paste the content into your post.

    Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Uploading the file is meant for troubleshooting.

    the file is not being generated but I did some tests.
    I use CC, and I did the 50/50 test. I found the cc's that wouldn't let the game load, so my game loaded and I played.

    When I went to play again, infinite loading returned and I went back to using the 50/50 method, the same situation as before.

    And now it just went back to infinite loading, so it doesn't seem like a problem with broken CC's, as each time is a different one that I need to remove from the mods folder.

    It works! But it's sad, I can't play without cc anymore!! ☹️

    I'll wait for the next update to see if it helps. Thank you very much for the help!!

    This is an old thread so not sure if you’ll see this however I did your method as I’ve had 132 code error and unable to play in live mode (build mode works) and it’s still giving me the same error. Could I get a 132 code and it not be a ladder issue? 

    thank you

    What happens when the bug occurs? placed a resi rental on the lot in mourningvale that originally is a nightclub, when I try to load into it in livemode I get send to Worldoverview with the Error Message : "The game failed to load. Error Code: 132:b16b8ae5:9bd3cfcd. It is recommended you relaunch the game."

    I was able to load into the lot in build mode, even after the error message just fine.

    I could also load into and play in the same build on the same lot in a different save/game.

    Edit

    Okay, now I found the related thread to this (couldnt find it before idk why) and replaced all the ladders in the build and was able to load it in live mode again.
