This is now happening to me as well. On Xbox also and can’t save any of my games, they’re all called auto save and I know it’s not my library ir tie use as I delete these regularly. Plus it’s also a new save I’ve just started playing. I literally can’t get through a legacy without any game breaking bugs at the moment
After playing about a bit, the bug seems to be connected with travelling. If you don’t travel at all in the save you can save and not lose progress but the moment you travel, you lose all progress and I’m not even sure where it happens. I really just want to get through a legacy save. I can only make it halfway through gen 1 before something becomes corrupted and I delete the save 😭😭
it’s weird though because although the day resets and I lose skills and any babies born vanish any photos I take are still there and any food I cooked. Also some saves are being renamed as autosave but others are being renamed as scratch

@Idaliarats do you keep a lot of stored photos? That can cause save issues and error codes.
Perhaps avoid photos currently and see if it makes a difference. I'm able to take one or two photos with the HSY photo booth but if I take a lot with the phone or camera and use the photography career I get save issues.

I’ve only got two photos in the save. But will delete them and see if that helps?
- simsplayer81810 months agoHero@Idaliarats It's just a thought but while trying to figure out what the triggers are it may be useful to see if that makes a difference to you.
I lost 3 save games once because of photos, but that was quite some time ago. Only seems to happen on console for some reason. - Idaliarats10 months agoNew Adventurer@simsplayer818 I deleted the photos travelled about and then saved and exited but when I went back it hadn’t saved again.
- simsplayer81810 months agoHero@Idaliarats Thanks for testing that.
- Idaliarats10 months agoNew Adventurer@simsplayer818 That’s ok, hopefully a fix will be found at some point so I can play again 😭 it’s definitely something to do with travel, I can save progress until it auto saves then it just stops saving, even if I manually save.
