Game crashes every time I try to place Book Nook furniture

Bought the Book Nook DLC specifically for the bookcases, but every time I try to place one the whole game freezes for a couple seconds, then crashes. Nothing else has made the game crash like this. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm playing on Steam with Windows 11.

  • emwherr  Try forcing the game to run in DirectX 11 mode.  Open the EA App, click Sims 4 > Manage > View properties, and add -dx11 to the command line box.

    If that doesn't help, please provide a dxdiag.  Click Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
