Older Sims disappear from genealogy
I can't understand why some Sims disappear so abruptly from the genealogy. The attached screenshot shows that only two sims are still present in the genealogy, but they were three. Essentially, an entire branch is missing. Is this actually a bug or is it intentional? Please, can someone help me solve this? My game is updated to the latest patch and I don't use any mod/cc. Update: all my sims have their grave in the cemetery. I've ALWAYS controled them after sending them to the beyond (life and death dinamic) and until the previous patch the genealogy was perfectly matched to my lore. I just don't understand why one of them is disappeared, despite I have its grave.

error code 30 when trying to save
For the past two or three days, I've been unable to save my game. At first I was getting error code 34, and I thought I fixed it because after getting rid of CC that I thought might've been the issue and clearing my cache, my game went back to normal. But today, I was working on a new house, went to save, and got error code 30. There was only one piece of CC in the house at the moment, so I removed it from the house and tried both saving the game and saving my lot to my library, but I got the error code again, and the lot won't save to my library, so I can't even just move it temporarily to the library, exit the game, and try to fix the issue. I'm just confused and concerned, since this is a family I have been playing and working on since 2019, and am afraid something is wrong.
[RL] Save Error 423:<various numbers>/Issue with Secret
Hi everyone, I encountered an error while trying to save my game in The Sims 4. The error code displayed was: 423:2a7d5db5:f4062171. After the error appears, I’m unable to save my progress. I’m playing on Ondarion. Has anyone experienced something similar or knows how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Nothing happened -- just all of a sudden every single member of the dynasty, including my dynasty head's mother and father, are at 100% enemy. Tried using cheats to reset their friendship to 100, when I hit play, it immediately went back to 100% despise. Tried changing dynasty ideals and interests, nothing. I'm furious - I paid $40 for this. No mods.

[S] Sims dying from overheating in chilly weather
I’ve purchased the Life and Death pack, started to play with one of my sims and all of a sudden, while she was in Ravenwood nightclub, she died from overheating. That was strange because the temperature in that world is always chilly. But she’s a witch and I thought it was because she had used to much powers, so I didn’t bother too much. But yesterday I transferred her sister in the household to play with her as well. She’s only human btw. They were at a party on the river shore and once again, all of a sudden, without notice, I get the notification that she’s overheating. I try to get her in the water (even tho it was raining and again it was chilly) but she was already dying. This time there was no reason at all for her to die like this and since I never had a sim dying from overheating before I got the new Pack, I guess it may be related.

What is happening: Prior to the Jan 13 update, I received a generic "server error" when I tried to save lots to my gallery. Following the patch notes that said that this issue was fixed, I went through some of my lots to back them up to my library with my updated game. Attempting to upload a lot now gives me an error message reading "Timed out during upload. Please check internet connection or try again in a minute." When I exit out from this message by clicking "Okay," I return to the window that allows you to set bedrooms/bathrooms and add a description to the lot before uploading. After a minute or two, I then get a green pop-up notification in the corner that the lot has been saved to my library, and it is indeed there when I check. I have not yet tested this with the "Upload to Gallery" button, only the "Save to Library" button. What I expect to see: I think it would be more useful to just have the "uploading to Gallery" loading animation for longer if it is just continuing to upload it in the background, as it's more reliable than getting an error message and then it actually working a couple of minutes later.

This issue is not mod caused but it can be influenced by mods and cheats, especially if you create lots of Residential Rental units in your save game. Save Game Size. The issue usually typically happens on larger save games. There are a few factors that contribute to save game size that you can keep an eye on Lots of huge houses with lots of objects: Try to keep those down. Consider using empty houses for set decoration if you don't play certain lots but want houses to make it look nicer Photos Sims take ingame. Try to only keep the photos you really like and that contribute to your gameplay. Delete everything else. Photos take up a lot of space in the save. Lots of Sims. The game creates Sims at abundance. Delete the ones you don't use from time to time. Usually there's nothing you can do once it starts happening.
