Fixed an issue in which in some cases the game would freeze while in Photo Mode.
Fixed in Patch 1.58.63
Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often - usually after 2/3 photos on the tripod, sometimes even sooner.
What is your current game version number? 1.54.120.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? With a subject on the mark, switching poses, the newest camera and the tripod.
What happens when the bug occurs? The game sort of freezes. You can hover over the buttons for the camera, but clicking on them does nothing. If you Alt+F4 to try to force a crash, a save or quit option comes up, but you can't click any of the options.
What do you expect to see? For it not to freeze.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? No
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. After installing Maschino SP.
I am having the exact same error. I haven't yet tried the cheaper camera that someone else mentioned hasn't caused them issues. My sims are in an apartment in San Myshuno, not supernatural sims. I lost an entire save because of the crash yesterday, and today I've had to close it down a couple of times by force. It's making being a freelance photographer pretty hard.
***EDIT: To update, gave it a try with a camera from the base game, didn't seem to have the issue. Not sure if it's just the new camera or I got very lucky. It certainly seemed to almost lag with some of the taking photos and changing poses however.***
