sorry to bother you again but i am having a new problem now.. ☹️ i built a whole new house and i saved. i come back today and its all gone... so i tried doing a quick little build, exited fully out of the game and came back to an empty lot once the game loaded up.

@GraveSweeneys Can you build a new one or does that get removed automatically too ?Is your issue similar to this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Game-and-Mod-CC-Issues/Traveling-causes-entire-lot-to-disappear/td-p/13322798 or do you get an error message when saving ?

I can build a new one and it just disappears. I do not get a save error. It saves as normal but when I return the house is gone.

@GraveSweeneys Does sound a bit like that other person.I need to call it a night now but if you send me your save, I can take a look (don't have that much time tomorrow though so probably Saturday) I couldn't duplicate on the other persons save but maybe I can on yours ?

No worries! Get some good rest 🙂 happy holidays!! How do I send you my save?

@GraveSweeneys So I tested the two newest files

On the newest one I get an error code but it's fine when I try to load the second time although the game is still throwing last exception. I couldn't duplicate the issue with the house disappearing on that. Do you have issues on that as well ?

Now the other save is very strange. For some reason your Sims seems to live in one of the houses/rental units but I can't find them so I moved them to a random lot and build a basic house, saved the game and exited. On coming back it was all still there.

You do have the max rent issue on that save though so it's possible there's some kind of corruption going on.

I would also delete that scratch folder in your saves folder and if you're testing on a vanilla save, move that other folder from the mod to the desktop.

Do you have the issue on all your saves ?

Yeah the error code is brand new, I can’t access the game anymore. And yes I believe I had the house issue on both saves..

@GraveSweeneys Try loading the lot, get error, then loading again. That worked for me.

Did you start over with the new save or is it a copy of the old ?

i think i started with a new one but i can certainly try again with a new save 🙂
