Sims 4 - Failed to Save

Hey, 

So pretty much starting today my Sims 4 game keeps saying failed to save after playing for awhile, but if I were to exit the game or go back to the menu without saving, I can go back in, and save without any issues almost instantly as soon as I load in the game, but it looks like after playing the game awhile it starts to say failed to save whenever I Try and save the game either automatically or manually, idk how to fix this cause the only mod I got right now is MC Command Center..

  • itskingrandy​  Please test without MCCC, just to be thorough.  You can set aside a copy of your save now if you don't want to overwrite it with MCCC removed, although the mod should be removable in general.

    Please also let me know whether this happens to a new save, and whether it happens with your computer offline.  You can sign into the EA App and put it in offline mode, then disable wifi and/or disconnect the ethernet cable before pressing Play.  Neither of these is a fix, just a kind of diagnostic test.

    Thank you for the tip, also I kinda realized I have had MC command center since February 9th and haven’t updated it since by downloading the latest one that works with the latest patches, would that be the main cause of it not working? Because it’s strange that the overall functions of it were still working even though it wasn’t up to date, and the failed to save error randomly came up tonight too.

  • itskingrandy​  The last major patch was February 3, with the subsequent patches addressing only a few issues, so it's possible MCCC is still fully compatible with the game.  It's also possible it's mostly compatible but that there are some minor issues that only show up in certain circumstances.  I don't keep up with mod-related updates in general, so I couldn't tell you.  But even a fully-updated mod isn't necessarily going to work perfectly, and therefore there's no substitute for testing.
