The update has broken my game, works for a few minutes then breaks and I experience the following issues.
Issues encountered:
- can't go to manage worlds, build mode, or cas - if manage worlds is opened screen simply goes black
- cant open menu to save/exit game
- cheat bar cannot be opened
- teenage sims simology panel broken (can't access, if opened upon loading game it doesn't show traits)
- once any panel is closed cannot open any
- relationship panel completely not accessible
Note: I don't have any mods or cc, have repaired game multiple times

I am having these same issues as well as a random household being in my house upon booting the game. I first booted up and there was a random teen in my bed and when I shut the game off using task manager and restarted there were two elders, one in my bed and one using the computer.

The same thing is happening to me, specifically the teen simology panel and not being able to open any of the top tabs. It’s not playable to me if I can’t save the game. How long does this take to usually be resolved?

I honestly wouldn't expect this to be fixed until after lovestruck comes out, I have preordered the pack so I'm hoping it'll resolve the issues

So annoying! I didn’t want to buy the pack but if it’s the only thing that will fix it…ugh. Hopefully since it seems like it’s happening to a lot of people it will be handled quickly

I’ve got the same issue. Not playable!

Don't feel as if you have to buy a pack/expansion etc in order to have a playable game, granted once EA/SIMS team releases a new patch to patch what they broke your game will be playable again. If anyone tells you from dev crew or EA that you need this or that to have playable game, they are lying and want your money. Every expansion comes with its own perks and gameplay changes that are applied to your current gameplay, with that mentioned, your can disable unwanted packs. Patches are nothing more than adding new content to game that doesn't require purchase of addons. Be patient and let the dev team panic working out the solution.. for them Time is money and unhappy players are possible money lost.

Exact same thing is also happening to me since the update, specifically for my household with my teenage sim. Can only open the needs panel, nothing else and cannot access anything in the top bar or save. Played a house earlier that has 2 young adults, a dog, and 3 horses and everything worked perfectly but is unplayable once switching to the household with the teen.

wow interesting! might have to go visit one of my single sims to test that out (if manage worlds opens lol)

okay update: things seem to be going smoothly so far although I've only been on there for a few minutes
- Ayelenia11 months agoSeasoned Observer
Yeah it's a really weird issue. All of my houses so far with just adults work fine, and even one where they had only 1 child. However, every single house with a teen has the problem and even one of my houses where they have a child and a toddler, both of those offspring are broken too.

I’m having the same issue with being unable to save. It just says game loading in progress 🙄

the same things were happening to me, then I downloaded the new UI cheats update and my panels worked, and everything except for cas, (I have not checked build mode), cas has just not loaded for me.

Same here... I thought maybe it was a problem with MCCC but I had already downloaded the new updated version before I even downloaded the game update. I even removed it to see if it would fix it but nope... It works fine until I try to open anything in the bottom panel, and then it's completely unplayable. And my household is just a teenage sim and her dog... so I'm guessing it's just a problem with teens. Looks like I won't be playing again until this is fixed, I'm currently fixated on her lol

I'm having the same issues but I don't have any teens.

Is anyone else unable to save their game? I took out all the mods and deleted local thumb cache and it still doesn’t work. It says ‘game loading in progress.’ Anybody else??

Same for me, cant save or even build anything. It says game loading in progress.
- bloeme11 months agoSeasoned Newcomer
I manage to save the game by clicking the option "save and go to manage worlds"
It doesn't go to manage worlds but the game is saved and I can continue where I left it the last time.
Still is a pain to play the game.

Seems like we are all having the same problem!! Hope this gets fixed soon :| This is my week off and I was really itching to play the sims xD
- Heleen11 months agoNew Spectator
Same problems several times here! crash and again and again, no matter what I try.

The same thing with me... its so frustrating. Mine freezes immediately after logging into the game... your cant change yhe panel only thing that "works" is the play and pause button...
