A patch, a patch, a patch........I hope....

Hatched a theory on how auto save breaks the game. Auto save obviously saves over from a number of different saves you have. Over time auto save bloats overwriting collecting data over and over causing the game to corrupt. Deleting it will remedy it for a time until it builds up from saving so much. Again just a theory of mine..

You could possibly be right and that does make sense @iamoz96 , I would say anyone having alot of crashing, too delete the autosave file and see how your game works after, considering it's rather mixed some people are crashing much more than others, its definitely worth a try

Ever since I first started playing this game back in Nov 2017, I have created many Sims I have grown to love, some of which has developed a long family line. My lovely Sim Penny for instance. She is happily married, has 7 daughters, many grand-daughters, great-granddaughters and even descendants. I don't want to lose all of this all because EA can't be bothered making sure this game works properly each and every time.

Also, with the latest patches, why did EA remove the ability to rotate Sims in CAS?

@adamclark83 Did they remove the rotation ability or is it a bug? The ability to rotate in cas comes and goes for me.

When I was in CAS the other night with my Sim Clara Su, I clicked the L3 button to check all the commands and the right analogue stick wasn't even on the list. That stick was used to rotate the Sim.

I was in cas for about 30 minutes then L1 R1 stopped working right as I was picking traits. Also culdn't open my restaurant because you need those buttons to hire additional staff.

Edit: Looks like my buttons are working again. Now I can hire other employees not just the chef.

It’s really hard to play with this amount of lag ?

I've crashed a few times this week after being crash free for a couple of weeks. In an old save I just started up, some of the residential lots changed to community lots? It was so strange because I played the families everything was fine, then after leaving and coming back to the game the lot type changed. So the game crashed while I was bulldozing lots or saving those families.

And because my game had been running smooth I bought JA and NK...now I've crashed traveling around Selvadorada. Looks like the team still needs to find more memory for this game :/

It’s been awhile and I haven’t had any crashes on my current save file. My game used to crash constantly in my old save file. I think the main cause of the crashes was having a lot of households (under 150). In my current save file, I keep the amount of households to a minimum and it hasn’t crashed once.

Yea I'm thinking about starting a new save. The old saves may be permanently corrupted and always have some degree of crashing.
