    Under investigation. Accepting as solution for visibility purposes only.

    Hello all,

    If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods) would you be willing to share your save file(s) with us?

    If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file. Instructions can be found here: http://x.ea.com/74420

    Thanks!

@A937113 Are you using oneDrive ? Maybe there's another copy there and the game either switch to oneDrive after the patch or from oneDrive.

OneDrive already updated. I checked.

I got into one of the corrupted files and moved him out again. This time it seemed to save. 

And I want to clarify something. The whole calendar reset to the day of his birthday. And all Sims and relationships are reset to that point. The only thing still there is the house I build for him and his wife. Even the two cribs of the babies are still there. That's what is so weird to me.

    @A937113 Do you have any backups you haven't opened with the new patch yet you could send me ?

      Yes, I copied ver0 to another folder before trying to recover it from the save folder. Will send it to you as soon as I get toy PC. Thank you 🙂

        @A937113 So I tested your save game and to me it seems the fix to reduce save game size might have gone south in your case.

        Talking about this

        Streamlining Data Storage – We restructured how we store game data to reduce the overhead of using Python objects, making the game run faster and use less memory.

        Your save game is huge (almost 300 MB) so maybe the game had issues progressing properly.

        I sent your save to a Community Manager.
