When I place photos taken with phones or cameras in my Sims’ house, they turn black when I exit the game and come back to play!!!! 😢😢
Every time I take a photo with my Sims, the picture works...
Ideas
Hi DoublePlusBon. I had made a back-up save file just before the January patch. I rolled back to that in entirety and I've ditched the save file I had covering the Jan-Feb period between patches. I had practically given up on the game during that time anyway, since EA had a fix but sat on it for ages.
My current save is not perfect, but I think the few black photos I am now finding in inventories were there already prior to the Jan patch. So far no new pics I've taken have turned black.
Someone below rolled back to a December save file following the latest patch and reported success too. I just wanted to report my experience as well in case it helps other people trying to work out what to do.
Needless to say this is sub-optimal ://. I am sorry for people who are still struggling with this terrible bug. I am also not confident that this is fixed for good. crinrict's advice to make back-up saves is obviously right and having them definitely helped me here. But I do agree with IndusNoir that this is going to have ramifications for people for a long time because EA delayed putting out a fix for the bad January patch.
As far as I’m concerned, I haven’t bought any new packs or kits since Business and Hobbies, and I haven’t done any updates since July. I play offline. I’m therefore hoping I’ll be able to do the same as you and preserve my photos when I eventually decide to update. The bugs are piling up and remain unresolved despite EA’s promises, so I’m waiting… In any case, thank you for your advice.
