My game want to update but I can't
Hello everyone ! I have a problem with my Sims 4 ! Since two day, I Have these message when I click on play button ! It means "an update is necessary to play the game ! Go to the home page of the game to start the update" ! But when I go to the home page, there is no update button ! I heard that the button appears only when an update is available. So I don't understand ! I tried everything (I think). I used Ea App recovery, Ea Updater, I tried to repair the game, uninstall EA app, update all my mods, disabled all mods, restart my computer... but nothing happened ! The button never appears, I have only the play button ! And sometimes the other sceenshot but nothing happens too.. Is anyone here had these problem and has succeeded to resolve it ? Thank you ^^Game crashes when trying to travel
I noticed that whenever I wanted my sim to travel somewhere else, the game would load normally but then after a moment it will crash out of nowhere (the plumbob keep moving during this). The crazy thing, I played earlier today and I didn't had this problem at all. I've tried removing my mods and found some that were conflicting with the game's files. I removed them and load the game again and it seemed to work for a few minutes but crashed again.100Views0likes4CommentsRetail / Restaurants / Rental lots glitch (panel)
In the last week of gameplay: -Owned retail, rental and restaurant lots are not showing up in the business panel. Some of my sims own multiple venues and the panel says nothing is owned. -The manage worlds screen seems to correctly identify the lots with the respective owners. -Retail lots are not spawning NPCs still / not showing as owned either...(that part is new) NPCs not showing up is not.. It appears any owned venue / lot is glitched and not reading into the current household properly in game. As an example: The Restaurant I just had built with a household and got functional for rotational gameplay still had the same employees but my owner sim couldn't manage them or direct them as if she wasn't the owner. Additionally, NPC's including the actual employees can't get passed doors assigned for the employees only on the owned lot. I noticed this play testing other situations trying to pinpoint the cause. Another example: My Retail lot (department store) doesn't function if you visit when it is owned by the household, but upon selling it back with no hired employees, the lot functions as normal. Rental Lots have the same issue. Don't show up in the business panel in live mode, but do in manage worlds. one retail lot seems to to give an error code 123 for the owned household if they go visit the lot after switching households and having visited with another household prior. Then it "error codes" out. I believe the issue lies somewhere with the "current active household" parameters and the owned venues. This started after For Rent but has gotten progressively worse and spread into other venues since the most recent updates. This aforementioned lot can't be visited without an error code 123. so inconsistently I can't find a source to it. I don't know if its from the updates or not recognizing the NPC retail glitch problem was larger than that. it's a venue / household logistics thing. it's terrible. All those hours of work and it's useless now. (retails, restaurants, rentals).66Views1like1CommentFIX THIS PLEASE
i purchased 3 kits today expecting to actually be able to use them and the game STILL DOESNT WORK i spent money and can’t even play this is so unfair and frustrating i can’t click on sims and they’re just stuck in a command i told them to do literally 2 days ago i’ve just been getting on to see if they can actually move but no everyday it’s the same :D woohoo this is SO FUN🙄 please fix this it’s so so so stupid that it’s been like this for as long as it has been i’ve seen posts from a month ago explaining the same situationThe Sims 4 lagging and freezing on PC no matter what I do
Hello, I’m in desperate need of some help with the Sims 4 on PC. I’ll start with some background: I’ve had the game for years with no issues until last week. In the morning I played the game for a few hours with no issues but in the afternoon the game started lagging and freezing in build and live modes and it hasn’t been the same since. My laptop was not updated between the morning and afternoon; there were no changes to my laptop made that day. I have Windows 11 if that’s also relevant. I can’t go more than 30 minutes (on a very, very good day) without it lagging and freezing but usual it only takes 5 - 10 minutes for the problem to start. It has only crashed twice, otherwise once I notice the lag (and it’s hard to miss) I slowly save and exit before it totally freezes. I went through the forums and did as I was told: I’ve deleted my backups, I’ve deleted the local cash, I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the Sims 4 and the EA app, I've tried repairing the Sims in the EA app, I’ve restarted and troubleshooted my PC (and I didn’t receive notice of any issues that needed my attention), and I’ve adjusted my settings in the game (like turning on laptop mode and enabling the V setting in game options - sorry, I can’t remember what it’s called). Nothing has worked. I also have no custom content or mods, only the base game and some add ons. I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue, it’s been a pain to deal with. Thanks!HELP
So a week before Lovestruck was released I brought a new cyber power pc 32GB 2TB because I wanted to upgrade from a gaming laptop so I can play the sims like I always wanted with all the great mods I was too scared to get. Anywho I make this purchase for my favorite game to get even better for me because I felt the need to help enjoy life a little by doing what I love most and not stay stuck in this depressed state of mind. The game drops I download and load a few mods broke. So I spend literally 10 plus hours organizing and spending more money on some mods and cc as I’m doing it I’m booting up the game back and fourth making sure it works and making sure I want to keep these certain mods. July 25th come I’m finally done checking and I know I have ALL updated mods/cc. I begin to play but I forgot one last touch for my builds I forgot a few doors. So I find the ones I would love to have in my game. I exist out drop them to my mods folder label build and buy. I go to restart the game and boom an UPDATE. So I updated and after 2mins tops, it’s ready. I press play and it’s loading. I get stuck with the pop up. I finally get it off after restarting 20xs. I go back to play BOOM and it’s stuck on the loading into household screen. So I uninstalled the game and do everything all over again. Finally the gane works. I start playing dang forgot to turn scripts on. Go out come back some thing pop up blah blah. I go crazy and call Best Buy because it’s the computer fault at this point. I gave 2500 of my money to you guys. They have Greek walk me through a few steps. It’s not the computer it’s the software. So I uninstalled again 3 more times, repair 5-6 times. I finally get to where I wanna be. I had to work so I shut my computer leave work for 10hrs come home shower and grab snacks because while at work I’ve watching all these EA game changer play. So I’m excited about my future lol when I get home. I’m about to play all night. Boot up my system double click EA to be surprised by the same exact update I just did. So I’m like 3 updates ?! Okay cool hit update. What happens? STUCK ON THE LOADING SCREEN SINCE 6pm it’s 2:40am. I hate the fact I spent more money for a gaming pc mods cc and the new game just to not be able to play. With or without mods btw. So the say the least I’m even more depressed than before. Spent more 24hrs combined trying to fix the problem and probably won’t ever be able to play again. PLEAS LE FIX THE ISSUE PLEASE49Views2likes3CommentsGame downloads extremely slow to external hard drive
Hii!! So, I've been trying to download my Sims 4 game to an external hard drive forever and it downloads so incredibly slow. I've done everything the EA website advises but nothing works (I.E clearing my cache, restarting, and repairing the app). When I download the game on my main hard drive it usually averages 100 MB/s, downloading it on my external hard drive averages 100-70 KB/s. Any solutions?
