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.

I couldn’t even click on simology. My cursor disappears. Build/buy mode doesn’t load. Nothing loads when trying to select travel from the phone. And if I click manage world, my screen goes black.

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??

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

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

Glad I’m not the only one having this issue. Can’t save my games.

I've had the exact same thing. Removed all the mods, cleared the cache and repaired the game. No success. Why was this not play tested before release. Very annoying. I've paid for sims for years and tbh as a consumer I won't be getting any more packs it's not worth the price anymore for me. Each pack and update comes with problems.

After the July 2024 Patch, my Saved/Legacy family has become unplayable. When I click on "Relationships", "Needs", etc., nothing comes happens (i.e., no needs box comes up, no relationships show up, no work/school box pops up, etc.).
When I click on the ... button at the top right of the screen, to Save or Exit, etc., nothing happens. When I click on Manage World, I get a black screen--but the Map never appears.
The only way to exit the game is to open up the Task Manager and End Task.
I updated all Mods (the only mods I play with are: MCCC, UI Extender, Zerbu Change Venu, LMS School Holidays, xtml Injector) and when that didn't solve the problem, I removed them. I also did a "Repair Game" on the game. There is no "cache" folder. The other one (cachstr) is the spotlight en us package.
I tried adding my mods back one at a time, to see which one was causing the issue. Every single one seemed to be causing the issue, which was when I started to fear the problem was my legacy family, so I tried loading an older save -- and no issues. Everything runs just fine with or without Mods.
Anyone playing a legacy game will understand how frustrating it is to lose your legacy family to a weird glitch right after a game patch. Help? - Sarnholm002 years agoNew Spectator
Same for me, cant save or even build anything. It says game loading in progress.
