Hi puzzlezaddict Yes thats correct, I am attempting to save my build to the local ssd, and not upload the item to the gallery.
If you may look at the attatched picture, its the bottom right hand button that is clicked in order to save to local file. Sometime while trying to save my build to ssd, the game will just freeze and not allow me to do anything, so then its a task manger kill sims 4 process. Also other times, the game will throw up the attatched message, but this time Im allowed to actually save the entire sims 4...but not that specific build to hard drive. Oh well...
Anyhoo... I will try your idea to disable the sims4 online social element and then play, build and see if the game lets me save my own build to local drive.
No matter thanks for the idea!🤔
