Product: The Sims 4 Platform:PC Which language are you playing the game in? English How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have instal...
Clean boot didn't seem to make any difference. I tried giving EA Support a call, just to throw a few ideas by them about the issue... I was told that I "owned too many of the expansion packs" and "that was the cause of my problems"... ? I'm still laughing.
As long as I play with Online Feature Access shut off, things are running great. If I do go online to check community creations, I make sure to log off after - dump the cache directory - and switch Online Feature Access back off again before loading a save.
Router has been fully reset/re-booted. I'm still trying to isolate why, when Online Feature Access is on (checked), the cache directory just starts filling up with jpgs. We're talking at an approx rate of 1mb/minute. And what data is EA/Origin pulling from my game? I thought with "saves" turned off, nothing was in the cloud, but according to EA they can "see" all my mods and saves. Seems "invasive". Any thoughts?
By the way, I do appreciate your feedback. I know you do this in your free time. 🙂
Did you turn off data sharing in your options ?
There is data sent to EA but I also find it weird that they can see your saves. What do you mean by see ? See how many you have ? Which mods you're using or only if you're game is modded or not ?
Who told you that they can ? Support or do you read that from the TOS ?
