Cottage Living/Henford-on-Bagley Glitches

@LukeSDarko  Is this your issue?

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CURRENT-ISSUE-Game-creating-tons-empty-households-Save-game/td-p/10543014

The large number of blank households in the Other Households list is the most obvious symptom.

Is there a way to delete them all at once to see if that is my issue? And seeing as this is EA I doubt the answer will be yes.

@LukeSDarko  There's a way to delete all homeless sims with MCCC, but that would include others you might want to keep.

Is this in fact your issue though?  If so, I'd like to merge your posts with the master thread, in part to show EA how many people are affected.  People in that thread are probably also looking for workarounds, so you might find some useful info.

Thanks no, I just deleted all those sims and it's still happening. So that's not my problem and it's only happening if I move my Sims to Henford-On-Bagley

@LukeSDarko  How large is your save file now that you've deleted the sims?  Have any new blank households been generated?  And how much RAM is your game using when you play this save?  Please put Sims 4 in windowed mode, then pull up the Task Manager and take a look.

The save is still bloated. 84 MB. And it's using 23.6 out of 63.9 of my ram. Meanwhile my other save that I restored is only 5.61 MB that I never moved to Henford-on-Bagley, and that one only uses 16 out of 63.9 of Ram.

@LukeSDarko  Which mods, if any, were you using when this happened, and are you still using them now?  16 GB RAM is still extremely high for a Sims 4 save, especially such a small one, although if it runs fine for you it's not necessarily a problem.

Yeah I'm using lots of mods, and cc but just the one world is like that, never had this problem before. Game runs great on all other worlds. Do you know if they're working on a solution?

@LukeSDarko  Someone from QA asked for saves related to the blank extra households, so yes, it does seem that EA is investigating.  The problem is, most of the people reporting this use mods, and it's difficult to reproduce the issue without them.  So it's more complicated than a straightforward bug.

Anyway, if you want to play in the new world, you may need to cut down on your mods, at least for the moment.  But unfortunately, until someone identifies the root problem, I can't really offer anything more specific than that.  Sorry.

@puzzlezaddictAh okay, but Us console users cannot use mods and yet we're having Immense and terrible simulation Lag (especially related to the Time clock / speed functions and Build and Buy mode is unresponsive completely) the constant game crashes in the new neighbourhood! So yeah it's Definitely "a straight forward bug" because again, Console users cannot use mods or cc! Any suggestions? And Are EA aware or even bothered about us Console players? We spend a lot of money on base game plus Eps and Kits ( I own them all now) (Full price and in most cases more for Xbox / Sony than PC charges) and we're overlooked a lot. Just really hoping they fix it this time and soon, because I'm not alone in how many of us feel so ignored by EA right now. We can't fix our games so easily like PC Users can using MCC sadly. :/
