How to Prevent Save Game Corruption.

Hello

I've been having issues with infinite loading screen. I do use mods and I took them out. I still had the same. I took out all of my saves, and that solved it.

Now, I am currently doing a 50/50 on my saves to see which on is corrupted. My question is how do I prevent this from happening (This same issue happened to me a month ago, and I ended up reseting the game. I don't want to do that again)?

Also, for those helping. If you get a simmer who doesn't use mods that have issues, make sure to tell them to take out all of there saves first.

  • Hello,

    I played yesterday, and I did't get the infinite loading screen issue. However, today I did and I didn't realize it until and hour has passed.

    I did take out all of my mods, but I still get the infinite loading screen. I took out all of my saves, and it worked. I did a 50/50 on my save files. However, when I got to test the most recent saves, the first character I see is the one from last week (I play rotationally), It didn't show the newest sim that I created or the last family that I played with. When I found the last character that I played, is when the loading screen was infinite again. I haven't tested it with the last family that I played with either.

    I thought that it was a house that I downloaded from the gallery, but that didn't work. What is going on here? How do I stop the infinite loading screen?

    I also do backup my save files too. But how do I fix this issue? Or could this be a game issue? I haven't reset or fix the app yet.

    I don't know which of the last save files that I have is corrupted. That's usually easy. But I got in with the character that I played with that is in another save. But I can't with the newest one.

    Do i have to delete that characte and start again? Could it be that I was trying to create a fairy and that was the issue?
