Infinite Loading Screen Issue with Growing Together Expansion

Hi everyone,

I’ve been experiencing an issue where my game gets stuck on an infinite loading screen whenever I try to return to the world from Build Mode. I’ve already tested all possible solutions—removed all mods, repaired the game through the EA App, even reinstalled everything. The issue still happens *only* when the “Growing Together” expansion pack is enabled.

In my save, I noticed that only one specific household causes the problem. When I try to load that family, the game gets stuck. But other households in the same save load and work perfectly fine. Disabling Growing Together completely fixes the issue.

This makes me believe the issue is directly related to something in the pack affecting certain households.

I really hope there’s a fix for this soon. I paid for the expansion and would love to be able to enjoy the content I purchased—it should work as intended.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I’d really appreciate any insight or a possible workaround.

Thanks in advance!

    Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

    - Delete the ones you have
    - Trigger the error again
    - Check if new ones are created
    - If that is the case, please copy/paste the content here. You can open the file with any text editor.


    Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Posting the info is meant for troubleshooting.

    I noticed milestones mentioned in the LE. Did any Sims gain a milestone associated with a CC build mode item and then removed the CC from your game?
