'System Error' when placing lot

I am starting a fresh save

I play forever gameplay aging off. 

 I’m making the builds first in a discard file first 

… except I finally finished building the apartment building yesterday (took months) , I uploaded it to the gallery and my library ready to place it into a fresh save .. and it won’t place !!!  It’s corrupted fully and I don’t know why !!! I 😭😭😭

Im not starting this build from scratch …!! It took months !!! 😭😭😭 please help … 

I literally just came to terms with the fact that my old save I have to start from scratch cause it’s to corrupted , then on the first build I make ready to place in my new save is broken …?!? 

Please help !! I have 90% + of the packs and I have copies on Mac too 😭😭😭 so I’m low-key own 140% packs 😭😭

The error code is system error when I try to place 

This is on console ps5 so it’s not a mods issue cause I have none.

Yesss I’m having this same issue is so peak 😭😭😭😭😭 

Hello all,

If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), would you be willing to share your save file(s)?

If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file. Instructions can be found here: https://forums.ea.com/idea/the-sims-4-bug-reports-en/information-how-to-send-user-files-to-the-sims-4-team/5048472

Thanks!

Any updates on this please cause I spent months building this lot so I can’t start from scratch 😭😭 

The only way I found around this was to save it room by room and rebuild it that way. It's still tedious but at least you won't have to start from scratch.

How do I save it on PS5 please, I am trying but I don’t know how. My username on sims is simsimma868 and the save file is called DISCARD. I have two lots there, an apartment block in SanSequoia 64x64 lot, and a school in the copperdale school lot.

Blessings

Oh that’s my ps5 tag, the username I think is simsimma86899

How do I save a save file on PS5 please I need to send it because my build is broken after spending months on it pleasee help 

Thank you

I was encountering this and it seems to be tied to a specific build for me. I use mods but removed them. Even in a new save the build still had the issue. I was able to place another building on the lot in Evergreen Harbor - I tried the build on two different lots and got an error both times. I do have custom photos on the lot. Unsure if sending a save file would be of use since it wouldn't contain the build I'm struggling to place. I DO have a save that the build was built on. I was trying to place in a new save. Perhaps the original save might be of use?

Heya Simian868​ 

What specific issues are you seeing with your build currently?
