Re: Lost everything in update

@lillameetamart  That's definitely weird (still), although there was a few issues after the November patch that caused some sims to disappear.  (Most were mods related, but not all.)  It's supposed to have been sorted out now, but maybe saves that were already affected don't revert to normal.

If you look in the .verx files, are the missing families there?  If so, you could play one of those backups forward, and you might only lose a couple of days' worth of progress, depending on how often you save.  Or you could save the missing families to the library and place them in your most recent saves.  They wouldn't have relationships with the other sims in that save, but there are cheats to fix that if you want.

    @puzzlezaddict I loaded up the game earlier this morning to go into the different saves and save families and lots individually to the gallery, to manually put them into my most recent save, and at one point one of the saves (which i had just checked) lost all of the other families in there. I quit and restarted the game and loaded up my mouse recent save file, and all of a sudden every family I’ve made on this computer showed up in my library. They weren’t there before, so I don’t know what happened, but everything seems to be working for now. It doesn’t seem like there’s anything else I can do, and it’s working, so I guess the problem is solved for now.


    I wouldn’t have been able to get this far without your advice.

     Thanks so much for your help! I really appreciate it!
