I'm afraid you have misunderstood how this bug occurred, based on all my own testing + the testimony of players, the bug specifically affected unloaded households. This is why rotational players where particularly likely to experience this problem, while people who only play one household might be lucky to avoid it.
The bug appeared to trigger during saving the game, where pictures not currently loaded into the game (either on lot or in Sim's inventories) would fail to be saved properly, leading to missing data. Once the save file is then loaded, the pictures would be blank due to missing data. This also caused save files to noticably reduce in size.
The real issue here is lack of communication from the developer + the huge delay in rolling out a fix. Even if it is fixed now, it will have huge ramifications for players for a long time.
IndusNoir Thank you for your respond, So it was never about just not loading into a household that had photos in, in case they would be deleted it was to do with the save file not working right? therefore losing all photos that would of been in any lot regardless if you played it or not? This seems kind of harsh to me! as I had households that I know had photos that I never loaded or played with for the reason that they might of been safe. I feel kind of cheated out of not playing with them sims in the hope there photos would of been saved.
I play on xbox next gen so I am limited as it is, When it comes to saves
