[PS4] Game save will not load after installing Get Famous

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
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? Get Famous
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except kids room and kids clothes stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Load my save file?
What happens when the bug occurs? It gets as far as loading the household from the neighborhood map then stalls at 95%ish percent on the progress bar. The Plumbob stops spinning and is stuck on the "Shows Controls" tip page. I then use the PS button to close to dashboard. I try to close the app from the options button and it shows up with the CE-34878-0 An error has occurred in the following application. (The Sims tm 4). Then the system gets stuck on the reporting page which forces me to pull the plug as all other ways to shut down will not even respond. Then I get the error opening when I restart after plugging back in after approx. 1 min. If I choose to report and send the error I enter the stall state again with having to unplug the Ps4 again. The only way to bypass is not to report. I have lost 8 months of long weekends. My kid has lost her game. This is too expensive to be having this problem. This happened after I installed Get Famous. This is the second game ending bug I have had where I lost about 4 months of gameplay due to the X button not working that was fixed in a patch. Please help. I feel really ripped off by the amount I spend on this to have this happen.
What do you expect to see? Please patch this or help me out here.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Installed Get Famous

  • Hi @mukluckie 

    Sorry to hear you are having issues with the game. 

    Have you tried reinstalling all content? Both base game and all expansions. If that does not fix the issue, please let us know.

    Cheers!

    Hello Sir,

    THANK YOU FOR REPLYING!  I REALLY appreciate any help you can give.....except this ....LOL as it didnt help last time -like i said...the patch fixed it not my reinstalling every friggin thing again just to waste my time in having the same result....

    No, this did not solve my problem and now I lost my save.....just like last time....which was the "fix" that was suggested and the final solution was a patch...so I was VERY hesitant to use this "fix" again ....and same thing happened as last time..i lose a save file that I have worked on forever...I had almost ALL aspirations finished...

    I appreciate you replying but this didnt work nor did this "fix" work the last time I had a game breaking bug.  So i have to ask...does this EVER fix issues??? LOL

    I know you developers didn't plan to have this happen but oh my goodness...this is SO frustrating. ☹️  when you pay this much for something...it is really hard to want to give this company any more of my time. like especially since i have /most gamers have the WORST OPINION of EA and their want to take all my money for things that should have been in the base game this is neither here nor there...BUT .  ☹️  Have been a simmer since Sims 1.....and the money I have spent over the years makes this feel like such a waste....

    Is there anything else that I can try or is this an eventual PATCH thing???? Please advise!!

    I really appreciate your help, it's just frustrating AF and this didn't solve anything for me unfortunately... is there something else I can try??? Please advise!!! Thank you for your time, and I am sorry but I am just so frustrated!!! Hope you have a good night!!
