- Fixed a crash that would occur if a tooltip was triggered when in the hover state on objects within a Sim’s inventory.
Fixed in Patch 1.105.345/1.89
Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue,
Hi so this all started with a update a few days ago. At first my game crashing was just random, unsure what triggered it then and I have tried many things to attempt to solve it except delete my save, and start a thread. Now it consistently happens when I open my inventory.
I have repaired my game from EA app many times, updated my driver and windows. I have tried it without any CC and deleted the one Mod I did have. The error still occurs.
I went through the steps on this thread https://answers.ea.com/t5/PC/READ-FIRST-Troubleshooting-your-Game/td-p/3621199 and only made it to putting my old saves back in the new sims 4 folder.
The error is just on one sim save, and doesn't happen on my other saves.
I do use CC on this sim, though the error still occurs without any of the CC downloaded. I also have every EP/SP except the latest crystal pack.
I have spent a lot of time on this sim and really wish to continue playing her. Having the game crash randomly has ruined a lot for my girl and really hope it can be fixed. I have included my DxDiag. Please help!

Thank you for the reply!
I do have a stack of lightsabers. Could that be it? I haven't touched the Realm of Magic stuff on this sim just yet.
Not sure how I could go about ridding the sabers if it is.
Thanks everyone for helping test this issue. I'm confident now, that with the two methods that seem to work to get rid of the stacks, the game can be playable as long as you don't keep stacks of items in your inventory (special stacks with the stack icons)
Please see my blog post for more details: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2024/03/stacked-inventory-items-crash-the-game/
Let me know if you have more issues or if the methods don't work for you.

MOD FIX
So NeedCoffee4That created a small mod for this issue: https://www.simfileshare.net/download/4513178/
It uses the proposed suggestion here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/WORKAROUND-Stacked-items-in-inventory-household-inventory-cause/m-p/13527250#M272080
What is does is getting rid of the multiple different items stacks. It only stacks brooms etc that are exactly the same broom and not all brooms together.
This is a simple band-aid and not a proper fix but it stopped the crashing.
The mod isn't thoroughly tested so please use at your own risk. I did some testing with the brooms in the two saves I have and didn't see any issues when using the brooms.
Testers are still needed for light sabers, kyber crystals and hilts. Let me know if those work too.
