I built a basegame home and went to place it on Pique Hearth. I had bulldozed Pique Hearth on a previous occasion. When I went to place the house I'd built from my Gallery I get a "system error" message and the lot wouldn't load. I then tried to place the home on the next door lot and I got the same message. The image attached is when I tried placing the house I'd built on the Riverside Roost lot right next to Pique Hearth, where it happened the first time I tried to place it.

I spent months (no cap) building a 64x64 apartment. Uploaded it to the gallery (after that got fixed) and now I can’t place it on any other lot it says system error 🙃. I made it on a discard file to start a new save file cause my main/ only save became too buggy and broken. Please fix this build. I’m not building it from scratch, it took me months.
I’ve reported this, waiting for a response on how to share a save file on ps5. I have 90% of the packs. (Have also brought second copies for mac) I’ve spent around £2500 on this game. Please fix this. Don’t want to play again until this is fixed cause I’m not wasting another 7 months trying to recreate this same build. I beg. - Simian8688 months agoSeasoned Ace

I got the same problem. On ps5, no mods, a bunch of EPs, using 64x64 lot in Chestnut Ridge. Not able to place a lot from gallery. Saved to library and tried again, still no.

Heya Simian868
What specific issues are you seeing with your build currently?
- EmilyBlueJaye8 months agoSeasoned Hotshot
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?

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

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.
