My Newcrest town is empty

Hi, I've just downloaded Sims 4 and when I went into Newcrest the whole town is empty. I've tried updating and repairing the game but it's still the same. Please help.

  • @miori90 Sorry for the confusion. Newcrest is supposed to be entirely empty lots for you to build your own town (or download buildings/lots from your library or the community gallery). No worries, there is nothing wrong with your game. Have fun!

  • Thank you for replying!

    May I ask, how do I download from the community gallery?

    @miori90 I am happy to help! To download from the community gallery you can open your game and in the upper right corner you will see an icon that looks like two squares/photos on top of each other. Click on that icon and you will see tabs for the gallery (news, your userID) and library. Choose gallery and you will be able to search for builds, rooms and households from the community there. Any that you want to download you should select then click the download icon and once you have don’e this they will appear in your library tab (the one I mentioned before in your game). Once a lot, room or household has been downloaded to your library it will be available off line and available to select for placement in your game. 

    This link should have lots of helpful information on this subject, including how to place & use the items you have downloaded: https://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/gallery/

  • Thank you for the quick reply!

    Sorry I have one last question. Is there a way for me to play online even though I got the Sims 4 for free?

    It does not matter that the game was free. The Sims 4 is not an online game. The only online option is the gallery which you have access to.

  • My Newcrest is empty all the time, even if I fill it with lots - the next time I go on there is nothing there. Maybe cach needs clearing.

    @binnroad  If you make a save, can you load that one again after exiting the game?

    Make sure that your user files are located through this path: Documents>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4, and that you have disabled OneDrive.

    The thread is old and the moderators might close it down if they don't know who posts in it; so best to make a new thread of your own.

  • @miori90 I was wondering the same thing too. So do I need to install the Sims get to work expansion pack for them to visit/use these venues I recently created? Also, is this the same in other towns or just Newcrest? Thanks.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.

    If you have any issues with The Sims 4, please make a new topic about your problems and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
