Re: [Patch 1.117 on] When Loading Household, Game Returns to World Select Screen

I have tried 3 times to create a new household, and no matter what i do, i can't actually play any household. it just takes me back to "mange worlds". i don't know what the hell is going on, but it would be nice to actually play the game i spend tons of money on.

    I'm having the same issue except once I load into a lot the game gives me error codes, won't let me save or do ANYTHING outside of the household, tried restarting and it wiped out my save files and I haven't been able to retrieve them, I play on console so no mods or any possible outside forces causing the issues. I'm so sick of this game the big bug fix has broken it entirely as opposed to actually fixing it.

    Are you a mod user? The August 2025 patch (1.117) broke many, many script mods, with this being the symptom, and these are still the ones most likely to be your problem. Use the Previously Broken mods and CC for many (not all!) mods that have no updates. Use “Updated” in the Broken/Updated Mods list for patch 1.117 as a second starting point, but note many were updated for patch 1.118 and/or are not yet cleared in the current list (for links, see Mod & CC Issues: START HERE).

    I’m moving you into the pinned thread for this issue. Please do reply with an @ and let me know if you don’t have any mods or are actually on console.

    i am a mod user, but none of the mods listed as being an issue are mods that i have so i'm trying to see if that is actually the issue
