Stuck in save to gallery CAS
This is pretty stressful.
I had been working on a household for about two hours. When I finished creating each sim, I tried to save the household to my gallery (as I've made the mistake of not saving my households before and later losing them.) But when I did, the game became stuck on the saving screen.
I believed it was just taking a while because of the amount of sims I had made, (even though I thought it was minimal) but it's been about 40 minutes and the game is still loading on the same screen. I'm not positive that the game is frozen because the sim in the background occasionally moves and speaks like normal.
I'm looking for a solution that doesn't involve me wasting the time I spent by closing the game. This is at the start of a new game so there are no save files to restart on, meaning I would have to completely start from scratch if I restart the game. I added a picture of the screen below. (Don't mind the name of the character, lol.)
@areitusims Unfortunately, there's no way to fix this if the game hasn't fixed itself by now. I know it doesn't help this time around, but in the future, you could save your sim periodically, like you're ready to come out of CAS, and then take them back into CAS later. Or you could start with a new sim and replace them with the half-finished one from your library.
