Sims 4 never ending plumbob screen

My Sims 4 opens properly, however, when I click on the play button to actually play, I am stuck at the loading screen at which I never get to play the game anymore. Why is this, and how can I fix it?

  • That is almost always a sign the game crashed and the only way to get out of the application is to end it via Task Manager.

    Here are a few things that you can try:

    • Uninstalling and reinstalling Origin (Your games will still be installed and all that)
    • Uninstalling and reinstalling the Sims 4
    • Repairing the Sims 4 via Origin (Right-click the Sims 4 in your game library and click "Repair Game")
    • Clear the Sims 4 cache
    • Clear Origin's cache
