@Cupid @LadyKyn @Archieonic I agree it sounds odd, which is why I am upset.
First off, I do not nor have I ever used mods for The Sims.
Secondly, I DID try the new 1st person feature because I was told by a friend that it was interesting and I wanted to be fair to both the feature and the game and give it a try before condemning it. There are the events that led me to believe it is the new feature that corrupted my game.
I went into 1st person camera mode, wandered around my Sim house, picked up some dirty dishes, cleaned up a mess made by the dog my Sim was trying to house-break (as mentioned in my original post) and then the game froze. I waited. The screen went black but the music continued to play. I hit Control-Alt-Delete to bring up the task manager but nothing happened. It did not close the game or bring me to the desktop where I could force quit the game. I had to do a hard reboot to get my computer.
Upon opening my game, I was informed that the last save had been corrupted (I only have one game at this time) and I had to go to a previous save. Upon entering that save, the game immediately placed me in 1st person camera mode, as that was the last camera mode I had used. As I tried to return to another camera mode my game crashed back to the desktop. I was able to get back into Sims, change the camera angle and began to play. After a few minutes, I sent my Sim to the dog park at which time the loading screen popped up and remained up for about 2 minutes before my game crashed.
Thus is how I deduced that it was the camera that caused the issues. Again, I do not play with mods for The Sims 4. There is the possibility that the DLC did not install properly, but I will need time to uninstall and reinstall the entire game to test this.
