[GALLERY] 'Timed Out'/Server error when saving lots (After Patch 1.124.63)

Could you please provide the following information

• Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
• What platform are you playing on (PC, Mac, Playstation, XBox). Please pick a thread tag for that.

I updated my tags to reflect that I play on PC and there are no mods while testing. I've also noticed that it takes a long time for all the photos of the lot to show up, then it times out when uploading to the gallery.

Hi thealienqueen​ 

thank you.

Can you upload houses that don't have pics and Sims ok ?

Hi thealienqueen​ 

do you still have issues with this today ?

The only thread I could find on this problem was closed and labeled fixed. However, I am getting this error after the patch that was supposed to have fixed it.

I get this error "Timed out during upload. Please check Internet connection or try again in a minute." My Internet signal is excellent but that's besides the point, since I am not trying to upload the lot. I'm just trying to save it to my library, which is an offline feature. My Internet connection should not matter whatsoever to save a lot to the library.

The lot is a 64x64 with a lot of detail but I have saved plenty of even more complex 64x64 lots to my library in the past without any trouble. The lot is not modded. It has no custom content, modded objects, or maker packs.

Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title

The error is not necessarily always an bug. Do you just have issues with this one lot ?

Does the lot have any custom (black) pictures ?

Well considering I was getting an Internet connection error while trying to use an offline feature, I'm pretty certain it's a bug. As mentioned, I was not trying to upload to the online Gallery. I was only trying to save the lot to my offline library.

I tried multiple times but kept getting the same error until I restarted my game. I didn't make any changes to my Mods folder or my Wi-Fi network and I didn't repair the game. I just quit and immediately restarted. For whatever reason, that fixed it even though I didn't change anything. I was able to save the lot and even upload it to the Gallery later on with no trouble.

So I guess if anyone else is getting that error when they know for a fact they shouldn't be, try restarting the game.

Even after EA fixed the "save Lot to Gallery" bug, I still can't save any of my Lots to my offline Gallery. I am a heavy mods and CC user and I can't remove any of them because the Lot I'm currently trying to save has CC in it. I even waited more than 5 minutes before I closed the "Timed out/Server error" message after that message popped up, and it still didn't save my custom Lot!
