Game not functioning since new update

First I couldn't click on anything once I opened the child's simology panel, I couldn't scroll down on it which was the first thing I noticed was broken, then I couldn't open her inventory, switch to build mode of even save the game. After a restart the same thing happened so I restarted again and didn't go near her simology panel. However, I then was unable to get an adult sim to cook a cake, no options came up after clicking 'cook'. I tried to leave the world and go back in but it didn't work, and then the screen went black although the time was still ticking on. Please fix this ASAP as it's not playable! I have never played with mods or CC.

    How do you remove the lot traits if you cannot load into the lot?

    Oh NO!!! 😨That has happened to me several times. I used to try all kinds of stuff, after the updates broke the game, to get my game to work. More than a few times, I have wiped the whole game, lost everything I had spent months building and creating. It's very discouraging, which is why I am constantly uploading my content to the cloud and not just my library.  I would suggest trying to do a restore point on your PC to see if you can go back before you lost everything. Good luck, and in the future, upload your content you don't want to loose.

    With regards to the being unable to click/change between sims, something I've tried is by going to Settings > Game Options > Graphics > Tick DirectX 9 > Apply. Requires a restart of the game, but so far it's allowed me to switch between my sims.

    I've yet to find more bugs with the recent update though >.< Hopefully it works for you with that certain issue 🥺😥☺️

    The original issue has been fixed a while ago which is why I'm locking this as fixed

    There's still mods that can cause issues so make sure to updated them or test without.

    Please create a new thread If you still have this issue on a new vanilla save game
