search bar in build mode crashes my game

Hi

Every time I want to search up something to buy in build mode, the search bar will freeze up and then crash my game once I type one letter in. This has been going on for a couple of months now and it is really frustrating. I do have mods/cc but they are all up to date and work perfectly. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Most people don't come back to say which file broke their search, but these are ID'd so far:

    • kia_dabarbie SZA posters
    • MDN Hickeringil Grill Set Ultra Modern
    • SovaSima Arch 1
    • thepancake1 and MizoreYukii's Color Sliders (update this!)
    • {BarbieSimz} Tufted Rugs Vol.1
    • {BP} VINTAGE SET_FIREPLACE
    • {BP}_PIN UP BEAUTIES_ FRAME

    Hi! I've been having this issue for nearly a year where if I search in the search bar in build mode the game crashes. I just stopped searching in it but I only now realized I might not be the only one with this issue and low and behold this thread exists lol. I don't have any of the mods/cc listed as causes except the color sliders, which I just updated with the newest version and i still have the issue. I'm thinking maybe its bc I might have so many files is why it not only crashes but the game lags to where it takes 10 minutes irl for my sim to complete an action lol. I'm on laptop instead of an actual PC so maybe my laptops trying to tell me I'm slowly offing it lol. I've done 50/50 relatively recently but I don't have time to do it all again in one sitting it usually takes me a week to do so. I have over 15k files.

    Thank you. It was SovaSima Arch 1 for me. I had this problem before and I believe it was the same thing but couldn't remember what to take out. So happy for forums like this. THANK YOU! Saved me a lot of time and frustration.
