The sims four won't stop loading
My game is stuck in load mode and has been like that for hours I can exit out but it will stop when I try to re open it, and eventually the game crashes

I also had this problem except it happened when I was traveling from lot to lot in the game and it isn't allowing me to quit at all.
Can you open your own thread, add more information as to where you were traveling to and from, and include whether you are on Mac or PC? 🙂

Are you using any custom content such as hair, clothing and such from third party sites ?

If playing with mods and custom content, move your mods folder to the desktop, clear your game cache and delete the localthumbcache.package from the Sims 4 folder to help with troubleshooting.
Try playing the game again to test without the mods folder. If it loads okay, it may be that some of the mods/cc have become outdated.
How to Delete Cache Files
https://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/delete-cache-files/Custom content can become outdated with most new game patches. If the game works when the Mods folder is removed, then one or more of the mods and/or custom content has become outdated and will need to be removed or replaced. EA/Maxis aren't responsible for broken mods/cc. It's up to the creators to fix.
Disabling or turning off both mod/cc options isn't enough of a test.
Try the 50/50 method:
1. Move all the mods and cc out into a temporary folder on the desktop.
2. Move a few files back at a time. Load the game to make sure it loads and everything is good.
3. Delete the localthumbcache.package from the Sims 4 folder.
4. Repeat steps 1 - 3 till there is no more files to check.** While your testing, don't save the game. If you find any problems, delete the mod or custom content file.
