infinite loading screen for specific households, not sure why
Hello friends. Been trying to play since patch day and I still can't.
My main household will not load. I can get into build mode and manage worlds but not gameplay. This is consistently true for my main household no matter what I try. Other households are also affected, but not most of them.
Here are things I have tried:
- Removing all mods
- Fresh install
- Reverting back to DX9
- Removing any lot traits for affected households
- Evicting families and moving them to different homes
- Creating new households and moving each Sim in one by one
- Bulldozing the lot in build mode (this works only until I try to save, then I get an infinite save screen)
- Deleting cache and configoverride files
Other maybe-relevant info:
- About 7 generations in
- Windenburg primarily, but also Glimmerbrook and Forgotten Hollow
- Affected households have toddlers with the "frequently sneezes" bug, where toddlers shrink to infant frames to sneeze. Gives me about 2 sneezing notifs per minute.
- Affected households also have disappearing cows in their household inventories. Can't put the cows back in empty sheds, doesn't work, breaks the shed so I buy a new cow, rinse repeat.
- Other households cannot visit affected households' lots.
- I have all packs. (Yes, even Batuu.)
Gdoc link to my save file if anyone wants to mess with it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ca0w0t-MT5jcBtwHSpwtU2FOhkN11q_w/view?usp=sharing
Dxdiag is attached.
Headed to bed bc night shift, but I'll respond with more info when I can. Thank you anyone who offers to help!
@moffnat Your new dxdiag lists several new BlueScreens. Did those happen before or after you reinstalled the graphics driver. If before, and they don't recur, I wouldn't worry about it; if after, that's something we should look into. If you're not sure when they happened, you can check the file dates in C:\Windows\Minidump. Each BSOD would normally create a file here.
For the game issue, the LE suggests this would be helpful:
