Sims 4 Xbox build flagged as CC and not in my library

Hi, I built a house in Sims 4 on my Xbox and while it was saving to my library I noticed it had been flagged as having CC. Obviously this isn’t possible so I assumed it was just a bug, however when I went in to view it on my library it wasn’t there. I’m assuming this is because it was flagged as CC and there’s CC can’t be viewed on Xbox. Is there any way to get my build back? Took my 3 days to build and would be very annoyed if I just can’t get it now because of a bug.

    Hi there @Kyle030500 

    If you've deleted the build from your world, or didn't save your game after finishing the build, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to restore that build as save files aren't manually recoverable for Xbox. While you’re connected to the Xbox network, your new saved data is automatically stored in the cloud, so restoring a previous save isn't something that can be done to restore that build. 

    You can read up a bit more on how cloud saves for Xbox work in the article here.

    @Kyle030500 Even Console can have buildings flagged as cc because photos and paintings you did by reference count as cc.

    Do you still have it in your game ? If so, just remove any photos/paintings and re-upload.

    Hi, I don’t have the build in my world anymore. I built it in a world I have just to build things then went to put it into the correct world and it wasn’t in the library.

    I have other builds with paint by references but none of them have been flagged as cc

    @Kyle030500 Generally, they count as CC and they should flag. It might depend on what's on it. There's quite a few threads around at AHQ about it.

    I don't know what you could do if you haven't saved the save game with the house. On Xbox it's not possible to get to the files. I'll move this to the console forum. Maybe someone there has an idea though as I don't know much about console.
