Stuck in Loading Screen After Loading Lot

hello!

I'm having this issue where whenever I load up the lot, i'm stuck in the loading screen, it'll eventually make the simoleon sounds, and the sounds that the household loaded up, but i'm still stuck in the loading screen. My game is heavily modded with most of the packs, and I've tried everything I could think of. I first tried to select another household to see if that worked, which it did, the household loaded up nicely. From there I tried the 50/50 method on my mods to see if that was the issue, but nothing. Then, I evicted the target household from the lot and placed them somewhere else in the world to see if the lot was the issue, or the household, and the household loaded up just fine. That narrowed it down to the lot, but I'm still unable to access build/buy from the map and I wanted to see if I could salvage items from the afflicted lot without having to bulldoze. I tried moving the household back into the lot, but same issue.

Any advice would be very appreciated!

  • @oeinahpets i forgot to add that i've uninstalled/reinstalled, and I've tried loading households on a fresh save, that all works fine as well.
  • @oeinahpets To be sure, it also doesn't load if you remove all your mods/cc ?

    Did you download the lot from the gallery or build yourself ?
  • @crinrict Yes, I tried it at first without mods/cc to see if that was the problem. At first, I did have outdated mods that I could narrow down, and from there, I could access other households, but I still couldn't access the lot. I downloaded the lot from the gallery 2 years ago, and I've been using it since; it's located in Henford-on-Bagley, which is notorious for issues, so maybe it finally caught up to me? I got to the point where I'm able to move out the family with all the furniture included from the map, and from there, I accessed the family inventory, where I got a long stretch of lag, and when I placed something/removed anything from build/buy, whether it was from the family inventory or not.

    This specific save file has also been around for 7+ years at this point, I feel like that's important as well.

    Thanks for your help!

    Sorry, not english native so I'm having a hard time understanding the bolded part on your quote. Could you load the lot after all furniture was gone ?
