Hi.

My first time posting here. And my game is in spanish, so... i will do my best with the proper names of the UI.

I am playing with one legacy game, since the sims 4 was released, with all the families in all the worlds. The tipicals and the new ones from the EP.

So... after installing pets code error 102:c4ef4efa:d5f5de09 came to life.

I have kind of the same problem loading certain families after merging via managing worlds. Elders or young sims, the age doesn't matter. And only certain sims of one family have this issue that I can´t move them to another household.

One day I saw that some of my dead sims, from past generations, were living in empty houses, and they weren't ghosts, they were normally sims; and marked as active household but without the house name. And the living families that are related with these ones are the same active families that have this merging problem.

I had a graveyard where I put all the thumbstones. I don't like play with ghosts. Maybe this was a mistake. But I did it when the issues with the genalogy came out, that time when the image of the predecessor (i hope write it fine) dissapeared.

And now looking for answers about the error 102:c4ef4efa:d5f5de09 I read in this post that I can ignore the message that sais restart the game. I did it. And the household load fine, but without all the club points and perks.

This is annoying because is the second time that the club perks and points have this issue.

I am in the fourth generation and have 42 families that I played (legacy of all families in all the worlds...) 154 active sims plus pets.

I hope that this could be fixed in some way.

Thanks.

      Hi.

      New comment about this. And it is very worrying...

      I've started a completely new legacy game. With the same characteristics that I mentioned. I repaired the game. Started on a new "the sims 4" folder and even reinstalled everything.

      I made a test in this and killed one sim. Then I merged one member of this family via managing worlds and the the error code 102:c4ef4efa:d5f5de09 appears!!!!! In a completely new game and new installation!!!!

      I stoped playing the game (because of work) before the patch that includes the ghosts features, when a message appears and says "the spirit of "X" is vanishing..." or something like that (my language is spanish); and play it again with pets (I have all the expansions installed). Before this I never had an issue or problem with anything.

      So... I reached the conclusion that the problem is the sims that died in the game, and affect all the family members. If I am playing a legacy it is a really worrying problem. Means that I can not play the sims untill you fixed this. 

      I love play this game, I play it since the Sims 1.

        I forgot to mentioned that when I stoped playing the sims (because of work), the other characteristic of the patch is "the favorite families". I don't know if both characteristics (ghosts and favorite families) came in the same patch or are separated patchs.

         I hope that this information is useful for you.
