Game save wont load after July 1 update

Hi sorry if i do this wrong its my first time writing.

After updating my game im unable to load into my gameplay save. I can load the sims 4 normally to the main menu and into the world menu but after that i get stuck at the blue loading screen. Ive tried removing and adding mods. Ive tried making sure everything is updated. Ive tried creating a whole new save and it seemed to work so i saved the household from the old save to try add to a new save but that didnt work either (still stuck in loading screen). Ive also tried repairing the game and deleting and restarting the game but no luck. Im guessing the specific family is corrupt is there a way to fix this? I saw a post about some mods made by Lumpinou but that didnt work either.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

    Marsh2107​  That's odd, I thought the mod was still fixing the issue, and I haven't seen any other reports of it not working.  I'll ask around though.

    In the interim, please double-check that the mod is installed correctly—unzipped and in the folder the game is reading—and that script mods are currently enabled.  And if all that checks out, split the household and see which sims you can load.

    So I went to try your idea of separating the household and thought I’d just check to see if the script mods were enabled. Turns out it was turned off for whatever reason!! Now the mods to help the issue work! Thank you again for everything!

    I have the same problem right now. I had the mod by Lumpinou. I tried removing all my mods, and it still won't load into the household as it gets stuck upon loading forever.

    Marsh2107​  Did you specifically try adding this mod?

    https://www.patreon.com/posts/mod-milestone-81237568

    It's the one that's supposed to fix this particular issue.  If you haven't already, add it and try loading your main household both in your old save and a new one.

    If that doesn't work either, please look for a new lastexception created with this mod in place, in case there's another error as well and the one above is merely the first to cause the game to trip over itself.

    Marsh2107​  Please open Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 and delete any lastexception files you find.  Try again to load your main household in your main save.  If and when you get stuck on an infinite loading screen, look for a new lastexception, and if one has been created, provide it here.  You can copy the text and paste it into a reply, or you can delete the first line of text and attach the file.
