Sims 4 Saves issue

When I try to load a saved game from a few days ago the family is completely missing. I click on load game, which takes me to the manage worlds tab. Then when I click on the world they should be in they are completely missing. The family is no longer on the family tree or anywhere in the game. How do I fix this issue and get my last save family back? I recovered a previous save of the family but there are so many differences between the two saves. Please help!

  • @LovleyJay Is just the family missing or is other stuff different in the save game ? Could it be a new one instead of the one you were playing with ?
  • That one family is missing and the other stuff appears to be the same. I often go in between manage worlds playing different families in one game and saving in each of those households. Is that why happened? I was able to recover an old save but it didn’t have any of the changes with any of the families.

    @LovleyJay Did you play with another family when they disappeared or was that your last family played ?

    Did you recover one of the automatic backups or a backup you had ?
  • I was able to recover a save from a day ago. I played with multiple families saving in each household. I don't understand the saves thing much. I loaded sims tonight, the same issue. Clicked play on that particular save took me to the last city I played in, San Muyshino, but the family that disappeared was in Brindelton Bay.

    @LovleyJay Sounds like there's some bug with the family which the game can't handle.

    Did you get any lastException files in your document folder ?
