New freeze or glitch
I have this glitch after new update, where my sims are frozen, can’t save (but can switch between needs bars or anspirations) and game does not crash? I reloaded the game, opened by epic and ea - both same stories. I thought it was new yers eve causing the problem but no, once I immediately end the holiday, it did the same freeze. Time does not go by but sims still do the animations.
[LD] Reaper: No Lost Souls show up on lot
There seems to be a bug in my "Life and Death". When the God of Death is on duty, one of the tasks is Find the Lost Soul. The prompt is to collect the soul beads at the place of duty. But!! I went out twice, once to a park and once to an open space, but there was not a soul pearl! There was none! I even searched the public areas, but there was none too! ! Have any other players encountered the same situation? Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title
FIXED EC:10607 & Error: 6 (unable to load cloud save or create a new save)
After troubleshooting for 3-4 hours while trying to play NFS Unbound after playing perfectly fine 4 months prior. I identified the root cause. In an effort to keep this Post straight to the point, I will go into more detail after explaining the solution. Solution: 1) Open File Explorer, right-click on your document folder 2) Click the "Location" tab 3) Verify the directory shown is accessible 4) Navigate to the folder, Right-click and make sure it is NOT Read-only or requires special permissions to write into. Ensure Admins have the ability to write/read the folder as well. 5) [If Installed] Open OneDrive, Go to Settings 6) and toggle off the backup for the documents folder. 7) Even if your One Drive was backing up a "document" folder in a non-C-Drive whenever it's set. It actually changes Windows 11's default location for "user\username\Documents" 8) Once the above steps are complete. EA Play should be able to write Saved Data again. Addressing the root issue behind EC: 10607 & EC: 6 Please reply with any questions, concerns, or suggestions.👍 And yes! Your Cloud Saves will be retrieved from EA and placed on your PC, provided you did not override them by signing in on another PC that did not have write issues. 🙌 [Details for those who care] The REAL problem & cause of both EC: 10607 & 6 (while in game) When you try to start a game and see --> EC: 10607 "Cloud save may be corrupted...please create a new save" - This could be the case, but it REALLY means "We attempted to download your cloud save and paste it in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\[Game name] folder AND then we read that location to confirm that the save data was INTACT, but discovered that it was NOT, so we are showing you this error as we believe OUR copy of YOUR cloud save must be corrupted." - Aka, your folder is either deleted, or permissions are not allowing the EA Play app to write to the directory. - This is commonly an issue after people upgrade to Windows 11, their pc or install new cloud management software. Why? Well, because typically people get new Storage devices, sometimes removing the original one, installing - Windows 11 could also rename the drive Letters, leading to a "misplacement" of the saves, or Cloud Storage management software like Google Drive or OneDrive could be manipulating your computer registry to point to an old location. My Personal Experience --> In my case, my original HDD failed, so I upgraded to Windows 11 & installed OneDrive. All over the course of 5 months. When the game landed on a Steam sale, I thought it was a great opportunity to secure a copy and play with friends. - But every time Steam would launch the EA APP, the EA App would forcefully try to read or write to my documents folder, crashing the game even after selecting the "create new Save" option. - EA Play UNLIKE Steam, ONLY saves to that variable Address, it does not care where the document folder is located, but is HARD-coded to save to what your OS considers to be the "document" folder, even if it's non-existent. In Conclusion EA did a poor job of providing clear error feedback to the user and completely misled them due to inadequate error checking & handling. Which led to so much confusion in the beginning. Not receiving access to a folder or seeing that the directory has ZERO files after "attempting a write" is very different from a file being written successfully to the local drive and then being corrupted...
"Origin is not installed and is required to play your game"
I'm not sure if this sent because of bad internet, so I'll do it again. I tried to install an expansion pack for the Sims 4 with a cd from a physical expansion pack from Walmart, but it's a couple of years old, and it says that it requires Origin to continue setup. I canceled the installation and took the disc out and decided to play the game as is, but it now says that I need to download Origin to continue. Origin doesn't exist anymore, so I'm not sure on what to do. I uninstalled the game entirely and then reinstalled it, but it's giving me the same error. What do I do?
Railings missing on lots created before Patch 1.121.342
Any lot created before the February 3rd patch that had stairs with railings, no longer have them after updating. This includes all premade lots, gallery lots and lots in saves. Any lot created by a player or Maxis before the update no longer has railings. This is also retroactive in exisiting saves when a lot is loaded in the neighborhood. I would have expected any lot created before the patch to automatically have double railings applied. Mods/CC: Removed completely and tested without. When fixed I expect lots created prior to 1.121.342 (Feb 3) to have railings again. Steps to reproduce: Load any premade lot that is supposed to have railings on a staircase, or download any lot from the Gallery create before the patch that is supposed to have railings on a staircase.

Infinite update loop
Today I start the game but first I got a messagem that couldn't join server, login EA App. On the second time it started, but every time I try to join a match I got DiceOnlineError after some minutes. After that I started to search on the net, what makes this error, Redit community said, try to push the repair button. OK, what could be wrong? After some minutes of repairing, EA app said: Game update required! OK, let's do this. After a minute, update finished, but I haven't got a play button, and EA App said: Game update required.

В игре Sims мы не можем зайти в магазин. Магазин появляется и сразу же исчезает, и по нажатии на некоторые иконки показывает, что нет интернета, хотя интернет точно есть. Единственное, что можем сделать - это зайти в облако и сохранить пройденную игру или загрузить пройденную игру. Пробовали на другом устройстве, происходит тоже самое. Подскажите, что нам делать
