The issue with the lots not displaying on the map properly started sometime last year, when I would play the households on these lots it typically took a long time to save (not the infinite loading screen but about 10-15 minutes) so to bypass the long wait I would play the household as normal and when I was ready to save my game I would simply switch over to another household and then save, as the wait time to switch over to another household gave me no issues. Now I'm not able to play that lot at all with any household or build on it without getting stuck with the never ending loading screen
@kushlordd420 Have you added any new lots since December 5, from the Gallery or your Library? And are you using any Residential Rentals there?
I have downloaded some new lots to my game since then but I haven't actually placed any of the new lots down in Oasis Springs or the affected neighborhood . I do have 1 Rental Residential lot in Oasis Springs but it is not in the same neighborhood as the 3 broken lots
- crinrict2 years agoHero+@kushlordd420 I wonder if you have a mixture of things. The lot/house disappearing on either the map or completely is a long standing issue with totally unknown reasons. Thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Houses-Lots-disappear/td-p/4620279/
Now there's a new issue where some lots just don't load anymore.
Did you also ever have the issue where you see orange explanation marks on almost every lot ?
Would you mind sending me your save game (will probably not have time before XMas). Instructions in my signature.
@Aygeia Yours does sound like the new issue. Did you use moveObjects or tool ? Do you have the lot in the gallery ? I don't use TOOL, I did not have moveobjects on before placing the lot from the gallery. The gallery lot is pretty build heavy but I've had no issue placing lots from this creator in the past. It uses bb.moveobjects. I actually tried placing some of their other builds on the same lot and they loaded perfectly! I can edit them in build mode and save with no issues.
So I seem to have the loading problem with certain builds, and I can't access my family home. Not sure if the family home is a game bug, cc bug, or lot bug. I'm trying to test things. For the meantime I moved my family out to play on another lot.
The lots I'm having issues with are on the gallery by xXSarina_27xX. "1 Pack Modern Home" is my family home that I can't load into, and "Modern Basegame House" loads with walls/floors, landscaping, doors/windows, furniture missing. It's possible I'll have issues with other lots but so far I've been able to place Maxis lots and travel to venues in the world.
Thanks for your help!!

@Aygeia Yeah, very much sounds like this issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Endless-Loading-Crashing-when-trying-to-load-a-certain-lot/td-p/13326793/
Would you mind re-posting all the info there ?@kushlordd420 I tested your save game and was able to travel and leave any of those lots. No issues that I could tell. I loaded into the one lot that had a family and placed a park from the gallery on the empty one. Then traveled with the father of the house to both homes and back home.
That said, the game uses quite a lot of RAM for your save game and the size is really big. I checked your household amount and deleted relationships to see if that makes a difference and it didn't do much to the size.
Are the houses in your save really big and full of stuff ? If not, I think the save is just bloated and might lead to issues because of that. Maybe you had less issues when moving to a new computer cause I guess the new one has more RAM and power than the last one ?
How much RAM do you have now ?
@crinrict I was finally able to solve the issue!! Once I heard back from you that you were able to play the save file without any issues I knew it had to be broken CC or mods causing the bug. In the past I had tried to do the batching technique to find the problem but was not successful. I finally had time to sit down and go through everything in my Mods folder one by one, and even though it took practically a full day, I finally found the culprit deep in sub folder. It ended up being some strange file called Mizore NoFadeEverthing Allpackscombined, I don't even know what it is or when it got into my mod folder but once I took out that one singular file everything has been working perfect since then! 🙌 thank you so much again for all your help!!
Hi @kushlordd420 ! Mizore updated that mod in August, so you might want to redownload if the description still interests you and you don't have other mods it conflicts with.
I am also currently having issues with the "1 Pack Modern Home" lot as well! My other households are loading fine; I've moved my sims into another lot and that also worked, but whenever I load into that specific lot, my game always crashes. I also tried to bulldoze the lot and that seemed to work as well, but I would really like to recover it.
I spent a lot of time renovating it from the original file from the gallery, and it would be a shame if I had to completely erase that lot.
If anyone has any solutions on how to repair it, please let me know!
@dalginae If you save the lot to your Library, bulldoze, then re-place the lot from the Library, does that clear the corruption?
- @luthienrising When it happened to me I had placed a lot but decided on one I liked better and tried replacing it. Infinitely builds. It crashed when I tried other ways. When I sent a sim there to build on that lot and tried returning to live mode I couldn’t use interactions at all and my sim was frozen. The only thing I could do was go to manage worlds or back to build mode and of course that put me back in the infinite load.
Have you had a look at Crinrict's pinned post in this forum? Might be worth doing.
