Re: Sims 4 on Ps4 save menu loading and game interaction issues

Oh I hope not! As far as the buggy gameplay goes, if it persists to the point that nothing you do seems to alleviate it, then you might want to wait until the next patch is released. That would really suck, but another patch SHOULD be released this month, hopefully, to fix things. Now as far as your saves, there's a couple things you could try:

- Alternate your save between several slots if you can. That way if something happens to one save, you can resume in another if need be. You may lose some progress, but your hard work won't be gone altogether.
- Save your families & lots to the library. Library saves are accessible by any save file, & your creations can be transferred to a new game that way. They'll be exactly as they were at the time that you saved them.
- Invest in a USB drive to back up your saves that way as a last resort, if you'd like to.

    And I should also warn you about using the library: It's a very effective way to save your creations in case of anything, but some players including myself have been hit with a nasty bug where some saves disappear from the library or corrupt. Some players haven't experienced it at all so far, so definitely be careful & maybe try not to add saves when the game seems to be lagging or glitching. Also make sure to save the game after adding saves to the library, as those of us affected by this bug were told by a sim guru that the library doesn't have its own autosave feature. Hopefully all of this can be helpful for you, & that you're able to keep playing without any significant issue!

    Thank you so much! Found out more from you than any page or forum I've read so far! I'll go ahead and save to the library, thanks for your help!

    Haha, ok one last question! How do I save my household to the library on the console version?

    So not sure if you were able to do it by now or not, but just in case you would go to manage households (normally found in the top right corner of the map screens, next to the 'my library' icon). From there you choose the household you want to save, choose 'edit household' & then from there look in the top right corner again for the option to save that household to the library! Also when you click on an occupied home, the option to edit the household who lives there appears in the bottom right near the big play button. Hopefully this helps!
