Origin is up and letting me sign in, but I still can't play. After I click play, the Sims 4 icon just bounces up and down on my task bar like it's thinking about it until I force quit.
It did say it needed to update this time when it first opened, but nothing happened after I put in my password, it just went to my library.
Edit: I wasn't able to get it to play until I deleted my existing Sims 4 folder. I tried to put my saved game back in, that I had backed up on my desktop precisely so I wouldn't lose it, but then it went back to not starting. I tried just the tray, and that didn't work either.
I lost my Sims, because I hadn't shared them, lost months of gameplay and some builds I was working on that I hadn't shared. I don't know what happened to Origin today, but I'm angry.
Oh no! I'm so sorry that happened to you! :'(
I never realized that we could lose our libraries too.
If you don't back it up, or in my case do, but the game gets corrupted somehow, yes you lose it.
I'm still ranting at my son this morning. lol. I had been playing with one Sim since I started playing a few months ago. She was around 200 sim days old, had completed a lot of aspirations, had nearly every skill. Had complete collections. I had just made her have a daughter and was deciding what to do with her when this happened.
