manage worlds loads indefinitely

I'm able to load into the last household I played but when I try to go to manage worlds, the screen just doesn't stop loading. I've tried uninstalling the sims 4 and reinstalling, removed my mods folder and ran the program, issue consisted. repaired my game, cleared cache, I relocated my The Sims 4 folder and ran the game to get a new set of folders, and the problem is solved in the new save, but the screen lags and flashes shapes and lines constantly. So it became even more unplayable. I can't find any other advice anywhere and I'm really devastated and miss playing.

  • @OEP0623 Can you load any household on that save ? What platform are you playing on ? Did you read the sticky post in this forum on endless loading/crashing ?

    I'm playing on my PC thru windows. And yes I've searched everything that's available on the web, and wiping files seems to be the last level of enforcement that i can find.

    @OEP0623 What were your results when testing other families ? Have you narrowed down if it's the family or the lot that causes issues ?

    The flashes were on the new save, right ? Did you have them on the old save too ?

    Could you post a video/picture of the graphic issue ?

    In the new save the game runs fine except the screen flashes' and lags and makes it unplayable. And in the original save the only way i can switch households if the household im playing meets with another sim, and i use cheats to force play as their household. and when i do that i still cannot load into manage worlds.

    @OEP0623 For the screen flashes it's best if you create a separate thread in the tech forum of your platform: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/ct-p/the-sims-4-technical-issues-en

    Please make sure to post your specs.

    For your current save: When you use the load button to load your game are you not taken to manage world ? Does that get stuck on loading as well or only if you choose resume ?

    If you can do that, can you load another family from the map ?
