Re: Sims 4 is stuck on infinite loading screen?

I'm having trouble with infinite loading screen when I try to load into households. I've tried removing everything out of my mods folder and still the same issue with the loading screen.

    Hi, sorry for the late response but I just started fresh because nothing was working so. I believe that save file was corrupted. But I do thank you for your patience and understanding.

    yes, I deleted everything in pinned list. I was doing them bit by bit. I even did my cc as well and still same error. My game was working perfectly fine before that update :( happened

    WestDiamo​ Please try this:

    1. Rename the user folder (not the Mods folder - the one it's inside of, called The Sims 4).
    2. Start the game and exit to create new folders
    3. Download one CC item and put it in the new Mods folder
    4. Start the game and open New.

     

    Can you load a household now?

    WestDiamo​ With the instructions I gave, there should be no possible way to open an old save. Was an old save available to you? You should have had only the option for "NEW", and a new save can't be corrupted because it didn't exist before.

    Oh yes I can open new save and it works fine. I’m trying to play my old save file that I always play my regular household and keep getting the infinite screen loading.

    Okay. In your old save, is it ALL households you can't open, or only your regular household?

    It’s all my households I can’t open.

    WestDiamo​ All households in the old save only -- including ones you never played before, ever -- but you can open them in the new save? In the old save, if you make a new household can you place it, with a renamed Mods folder?
