Blue box in lower left hand corner and not being able to play households.
whenever I go to load into a sim family it takes me to the loading screen only to bring me back to the worlds management with a blue flickering box around the area where the sims would be. And near that box baby bottles that say x8 appear and the lot no longer has a sim in it. I have tried this again with the same family and after the secound time of doing it, it completely deleted my sims and brought me back to world management with the blue box in the lower left corner. This has happened even after I have updated the game. Thank you, - Shaky2vpostures\posture_specs.py in Better Exceptions Report after newest update.
The August 19th update is really testing my patience. It broke a bunch of my mods that I had to delete, and now the game isn't even loading my household. It keeps giving me the "postures\posture_specs.py". I have no clue what that is. Someone please help😭I just want play my save.

my sims 4 live mode screen keeps glitching out
so i don't really know how to describe it, but i have a screenshot. i've tried repairing sims4, restarting the EA app, recovering old saves, even making new saves, restarting my computer, and checking different household saves, but nothing i've tried has worked, and all of my saved games are affected. it's been like this for literal hours to the point where the idea of launching my pc across the room is becoming increasingly desirable. please help.The sims 3 do not work
The Sims 3 does not launch properly. When I try to start the game it goes immediately redirects back to the EA App without any error message. The game worked just fine two days ago, now I reinstaled the game a few times, even the EA App, I tried recovering the sims and absolutely everything else...
Constant crashing on game startup
I have been struggling to get my game to load for 2 days now. i have been through every routine fix and nothing has worked. I have also tried factory resetting my entire computer (did not fix it), uninstalling and reinstalling the game (no fix), manually adding my graphics card to the graphics card file in the Bin folder (error message for missing graphics card came back on a fresh folder restart), reinstalled the latest update on my Nvidia graphics card (no change), as well as a host of other recommendations found online. I cannot figure it out and need help. Attached is my dxdiag and the last crash report from a fresh folder start. Please let me know if someone can figure out what the issue is. Thanks!

It keeps saying there is an error on EA's end preventing the game from launching properly. Please fix this soon
Game Is Spamming Autonomous empty task bubbles
First of all I have no mods installed, never have, and yes my game is up to date with the latest update. My game crashes at seemingly random times after my sims get locked into a task queue. The most recent one happened when I had an adult sim, toddler sim, and child sim at home. The child sim was sitting in a chair doing her homework and I was trying to get the adult sim to pick up the toddler to give her a bath. All of the sudden all three of my sims froze and get I can hear the task sound (like when you select a task for them to do and it pops into the far left queue area) non-stop. I click on my child sim and all the sudden that task queue bar on the far left goes all the way up to the top of my screen, but there were no task bubbles actually in that panel so it was just empty. After this my game completely froze. I couldn't exit out of the game or alt F4 it either. I had to shut off my computer in order for the game to actually close because even after trying to force quit in task manager the game screen just went white and wouldn't close. It seems like the game got overloaded by a bug with too many tasks being queued (even though I didn't queue them). This has happened multiple times in the past few months and it's always randomly.
