Re: The game failed to save. Error code: 510:78f70847:44708b40

@CMeki

Thanks for your help,

I've put all my mods folder on my desktop and launched the sims, everything was okay with the game, so I put one by one the mods folder back into the sims 4 folder and I figured out which mod was breaking the game

    Hey I am have the same error code but haven't had any luck even with removing mods. What mod was it that was causing the issue?

    @Mr_Panda_lol

    Did you move the whole folder and it still did not work?

    Try resetting your files to factory settings.

    • Make a backup; copy your The Sims 4-folder from C:\Users\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts to an external drive or somewhere else on your computer, for example your desktop.
    • Rename the The Sims 4-folder in C:\Users\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts to The Sims 4_backup
    • Start the game, make a new save, and see if the error is gone. 
      (The game will have created a new The Sims 4-folder in your documents, this is supposed to happen)

        • If yes, continue
        • If no, post a reply telling us the error is still there
    • Start putting folders back in the new The Sims 4-folder. Observe! After every file/folder, start the game and make sure it still works, before putting in the next one.
      • Options.ini - your game settings
      • Saves - your old saves. The sub-folders are not needed. If putting these back causes problem, try putting one back at a time.
      • Screenshots
      • Custom music - if you have any
      • Tray - your library objects; like lots, rooms and sims
      • Mods - your mods and cc, might cause problems when putting back

    If putting back one of the folders was problematic and you did not work it out, please post a reply and we'll see if we can find what your problem is!
