can't play/ create a new sim

I created 4 sims without any problems so far, now I was creating another one: at the beginning everything was fine but after placing it in a house it doesn't let me manage it as if it were unplayable, in fact if I go back to manage the scenarios it appears that no one lives in the new house and the sim is as if disappeared even though I had clearly saved it. I tried to create it again 3-4 times, I also did "fix the game" many times through the EA app and emptied the caches but the problem persists (i have no mods)

    miryxmoon  Are you starting a new save, from the Main Menu, when you create this sim?  Or are you going to Manage Worlds in an existing save and entering CAS from there?  Does the sim you created appear in your in-game library?

    spiderdracula  If you make a new save and place the sim, you should load into live mode with that sim.  Is that not what's happening?  If not, please list the steps you're taking, in detail, so I can try to figure out where the process is going wrong.

      When i loaded in at first my sim was missing and the  control bar thing on the bottom was completely blank and just had the time section with nothing about my sim. i tried adding my sim by adding it to the house instead of sim first then moving in but i got an error code 115 and now im getting error code 102. i dont think its my mods ive never had any problem with them before or gotten error codes until i updated yesterday but idk

    spiderdracula  Please test with no mods or custom content at all, as in, move the Mods folder to the desktop and delete localthumbcache.package.  This issue can be caused by mods and/or cc, so it's crucial to find out whether that's the case for you.

    guys I solved it, the problem was evidently the public sim that I had taken from the gallery, because then trying to create another one, also taken from the gallery, it worked

    thank you for all your replies
