@htreharn046 I split your post since the other issue was solved.

Does the crashing only happen in a particluar savegame or also if you start a new one (for testing purposes) ?

    It's hapened in 3 seperate games so far. One instance was a savegame that I loaded a few times and it kept crashing, started a new game and 45 minutes into it, I went to move  painting onto the all and it crashed. Started another new game, same thing happened after about 30 miinutes when I just directed my sim to make lunch.

    I was in the middle of creating my sims and it crashed twice on me. Didn't even get a chance to save them before it happeed which means I have to start all over again

      It would be best if you removed any and all of your mods, first thing.  Also In origin please set the game to play in windowed mode with Origin offline while you're playing Sims.

      You can find this screen by hovering your mouse cursor over the Sims4 game ico and clicking on the grey i next to the Play button.  This will put Origin offline and in the background and you play and having the game in Windowed mode appears to help.  I'm still having a terrible time with crashes, but it's slightly better than before.  I had to delete all of my content and start all over.  I'm getting less resentful until the next crash.  They need to fix this.

      I've noticed that alot of the crashing problems are solved when you go into game options - graphics tab- then click the drop down arrow and select low-medium settings.:catvery-happy:
