Game not loading the correct save file - opening to a different save file
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.96.397.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Almost all - not Journey to Batu or Growing Together. Not sure what Kits I have but I have the free one and some other ones, with the skirts?
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I'm not sure. I opened up to play a game, and even though the family is there in the load game screen, it takes me to a different save. Not sure if it's related or not, but when I started a new game, I exited out to manage worlds, did my stuff, and then when I tried to get back to the lot it took me back to the select a world screen... rinse and repeat.
What happens when the bug occurs? I am not able to play with a save that I had been playing - it takes me to an old save, one that is more like a previous version of an older save.
What do you expect to see? The save that I click on with the family I click on and also when selecting the lot I want to play it will take me to the family I want to play and not the choose a world screen.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This just happened. I was playing with a family, and exited out. Came back today and noticed that there was a different person there in the jump into game screen. Thought it was weird, went to load games and saw the family I'd been playing there. I loaded the game, and then I was taken to a past version of an older save - showed a family that was no longer present.
Again, not sure if it's related or not, but I started a new save. After combining households, I was taken back to the main world screen. When I tried to load the family I'd been playing, the game kicked me back to the select a world screen. Anyway I had just started that game so I deleted it.
