I'm unable to access any households, even without mods or CC

I'm unable to access any households since that last Aug 19th update, even without mods or CC. I'm getting to the point that I don't want to play Sims4 at all. They can't get it together with there updates!!!  Why are they so screwed up? I get the impression that they don't care.

    I had this issue too! Check to see if your save files are still contained in the EA folder (Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Saves). For some reason, all my save files were wiped after the newest update, but I was able to find some of them in the old Origin folder (Program Files > Origin Games > The Sims 4 > Saves), and copy/paste them into the saves folder stored in the EA folder. I hope this helps, and if not, I hope someone more knowledgeable can help you! Good luck 🤞🏼 

  • Hi cecilio123​ 

    could you describe what issue you are seeing ? Do you not see your saves ? Does the game crash ? Booted back to the map ? Endless loading ?

    For booted back/Endless loading

    Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

    - Delete the ones you have
    - Trigger the error again
    - Check if new ones are created
    - If that is the case, please copy/paste the content here. You can open the file with any text editor.


    Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Posting the info is meant for troubleshooting. 

    For crashing/saves gone: What platform are you playing on ?

    Problem solved, it was an outdated mod. Mine was the [PimpMySims4] LGBT Mod. Should it be another mod, remove them all and bring them back one by one. I know its time consuming, but its the only way.
