I had my tech guy check my system completely last night there is NOTHING wrong with my system or graphics card - I was freaking out thinking something was wrong with the graphics card, but no it's fine.
He checked all the drivers and if anything should be updated. Not a thing.
This seems to be a GAME issue - it's only begun happening since that latest Neighborhood Stories patch I've NEVER had this issue on this system before it.
NOW I'm also experiencing game crashes in cas and build mode.
Is this going to get worse before it gets better? I've already lost a couple of nice builds and sim families/couples due to this.
FYI my tech was able to see that my game issues with crashing and non-loading began on March 16th....the day after the update.
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.85.203.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but bust the dust which is disabled
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? it is random - usually it can be found in either build mode or cas - more often in cas
What happens when the bug occurs? the game randomly shuts down
What do you expect to see? I expect the game to not randomly shut down (no error code)
