Game freezes in build mode (lot) since Juli 10th update.
I posted this yesterday, but it seems to have been placed under a different post regarding issues after an earlier update. However, the update I was referring to was the juli 10th update. When the latest expansion was released and the game and all dlcs were updated on Xbox. Before that update I had not experienced this issue. Also, the post it was put under was about the game crashing, my issue is with the game freezing. That's why I have reposted this bug report, so that it can be properly investigated. Ever since the latest update the game continually freezes when doing anything that requires the slightest bit of effort. I first noticed the issue while working on a lot in Copperdale, which kept freezing when I tried to place a light on the ceiling. I cleared the Xbox series X console cache by doing a power cycle, which seemed to resolve the issue. However the very next day the game froze up again, forcing me to to once again clear the cache. This time it did not fix the issue, and it began to freeze while doing something as simple as zooming in on the lot. I have also tried creating a new world save and placing the same lot from the gallery into the same 30x20 lot in Copperdale. The issue was not resolved, thereby crossing off the possibility of an issue with the world save file. The issue does not seem to occur when playing in live mode, only while in build mode. However, I have noticed increased lag in love mode ever since the update. The game has now become unplayable, and no amount of cache clearing or reinstalling seems to resolve the issue. I am also noticing a significant increase in loading times ever since the update. Please fix this ASAP. Additional info: all expansion packs except for "for rent" and "businesses and hobbies" have been installed, as well as all game packs except for "dine out".
Gallery screenshot is blocked by trees/objects on several lots
There is an old thread about this issue from 8 years ago but since this is now an issue again, I want to report it. As the title says, when uploading a lot to the Gallery/Library the game generates the first screenshot wrong. Only showing trees instead of the house view. You don't see the lot anymore because trees are in front. Examples: edit to add, July 16th, 2025 Link to the old thread with lots of screenshots Edit By Crinrict: Archived thread had around 139 me toos
[EBN] Game Crashes when exiting CAS when infants in household.
Game instantly crashes exiting CAS when infants in household. Once the save crashes, if you restart the game even after clearing all the caches you can't change households or enter build mode because the game will crash to desktop every time. If seems everything triggers the game to crash. The save becomes unplayable. This is my third save and I'm tired of this. What I've tested: No CC or Mods installed. All caches cleared. clean save How to reproduce it: play a household in Innisgreen have a baby once it's an infant, enter CAS to plan outfits exit - crash clear caches re-enter game try to change households - crash unplayable fairies can't have glowing tattoos- exist CAS- crash. This is my third time through. Have no clue what caused the other crashes. Just fix it, already.

For example a Sim has a simple bed that goes with the decor but you have the Simoleons to pay for a much better mattress you just click on the bed and select "Buy a new Mattress" then a list of amounts pops up and you select how much you want to pay and the level changes the energy and comfort level of the mattress.

This is a reference to the Dracula from 1979 starring Frank Langella. This is also Vampire lore accurate. They used to take all white or all black horses into cemeteries and make them walk across the graves. If there is a grave the horse refused to walk over, then that is where they determined a vampire was resting. Evil Vampires to make flowers wilt when they pass by Vampires and Ghosts get a dance animation exclusive to just them. When slow dancing with another Vampire or ghost they will start hovering in midair while doing the dance. Vampires have a favorite Plasma Type Unlockable new Vampire Power - Eclipsing Fog just like Sims 3 Parasols will help to shield a Vampire from the Sun for short periods Hospitals Sims can go in and donate plasma. Vampires on the other hand hand can go in & choose to steal or purchase plasma from the unscrupulous. (Only Lovers Left Alive Reference) I would like it if fastidious neat freak Vampires would have an occasional dusting of their coffin & maybe spray something like Febreeze inside it, just for laughs Sims will get the feeling they are being hunted like in Sims 3 If Burglars get introduced Vampires will always attack a Burglar - They always win and when they do, Yum. Like staying in and ordering Take Out. (In fact that would be a wonderfully morbid moodlet) Chance to make the burglar their minion.

Routing failure when trying to read from certain bookcases
Every time I try to place this small bookshelf it always says my sim can’t get to it and I’m not sure how to fix it. Nothing is in the way and it’s placed with Moveobjects off Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title fit migrated bug report. Routing failure/T-Pose when trying to read from certain bookcases. Archived thread had around 4 me toos Not adding pack tags as it makes the title to long. Affected are all smaller bookcases.
Fantasy/Sci-Fi/etc. Themed Packs
With EbN most of the supernatural Life States are in Sims 4. I would of course like more but a general satisfaction that if you have RoM/V/W/EbN you finally almost have the equivalent to Sims 3 Supernatural. Sims 3 Supernatural (my first Sims 3 pack) is what got me hooked on buying all Sims 3 packs and almost the entire Sims 3 store—so that is why I mention it. But because I am a fantasy/sci-fi based player, non-fantasy/sci-fi packs and packs that do not compliment fantasy/sci-fi type themes don't interest me much—so that means there are more packs I rather skip/not buy than buy (but I am also aware many players feel the opposite too). At least that is what I found in Sims 4, it is easier to skip packs in Sims 4 than Sims 3. Also funny enough, I had no interest in the Journey to Batuu (I mean I probably would like the CAS and Build by the rest of the pack I have zero interest), just the Star Wars universe doesn't really have a place in my Sim worlds (but I might buy it (on sale), if they add a Dystopian EP/GP). With this, new packs are really going to have to impress me to buy, otherwise I need hard convincing just to buy packs when they are on sale. So here are some idea for packs that might interest fantasy/sci-fi/themed game style players and may or may not interest non-fantasy/non-sci-fi/non-themed game style players. Steampunk, bring back inventing that is more tinkerer/eccentric based that can work for past, modern and (dystopian) future themed players. I loved using both Ambitions/WA and the steampunk store packs (including Midnight Hollow) to create a sort of industrial steampunk themed game. This could probably be a GP but you'd wow me if you did a EP. Medieval, also a fan of Dragon Valley and baby dragons. I think many players would love to be technology free (no cell phones/computers/TVs/etc.) especially for a non-ECO off the grid challenge. I'd suggest an EP, make it so you can play past/modern tech (or lack of tech). Underground and/or Underwater Biodome, my fav Sims 2 lot was a the Biodome, I still want to see that again revised. But for a fallout or future playstyle this would be so cool. Or even ocean exploration themed. Space Station/Spaceship, or some future world. I loved Into the Future and Oasis landing! I miss nanites and the regular or dystopian versions of the future world. Whimsical, I loved the Looking Glass/Wonderland store items, I sort of used Midnight Hollow and utopian future to play an Alice in Wonderland theme game. I'd love a tea party table (I loved the store tea set table). This could be a GP or very least a SP (similar to how Paranormal works) but please not a Kit (it wouldn't be enough to work with). The idea of oversized items, from being shrunk (misses oversized flowers). How to make this work for non-fantasy themed players, theme park lots/capability for themed lots, to keep fantasy Sims in certain worlds/lots similar to werewolves staying in their world. Adventure Worlds, aka Al Simhara, Shang Simla and Champs Les Sims, JA is nice but I really loved these worlds too. This is themed but not fantasy/sci-fi so more people should be able to enjoy.
Cha Cha Mostly Tall Sliding Door Missing from BuyBuild
I wouldn't have noticed this if I hadn't been using it in a new build. The door from Base Game Cha Cha Tall Sliding Door (small walls) has been removed from the game. Is this deliberate or a bug. Screenshot shows the smaller version, the version that's missing is to the full height of the small wall size. Playing Deluxe Version on PC. Mods/CC removed following patch.
