Hard soft-lock / no plater control / PC
Hi EA Support, I just installed the game and was excited to play but ran into a huge bug. When loading into the game, the game forces the "go to map prompt and immediately glitches my character in and out of the map. I have 0 control and cannot access the map, friends list, or settings. Restarting, re-installing and verifying files does not fix it. This happens everyime I load in. Can someone please reset my player/session rate. My username on steam is takesumrisks thank you!
Several Hairstyles have hairline crack across forehead
Why... SOMETIMES... not all the time... ever since the August update that added pack selection to the game there has a been an issue at times when loading the game up that some hair styles have annoying lines going through the head of a Sim as shown in the screenshot attached. Like I said, it's not always there when the game loads up. Just like half the time or so. It's annoying to see and I have no idea how to completely eliminate it. It doesn't matter how I change the graphic settings. It will always sometimes show up when loading up the game and will not go away unless I quit and reload it with hopes it doesn't recreate the graphic issue. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title
PC Crash to Desktop During Online Party Challenge Replay
This report describes a consistent crash to desktop occurring in skate.exe on PC when playing in an online party with players located outside Australia. The issue does not occur in solo play or when playing locally and has not been observed in any other games or software on this system, indicating the problem appears specific to skate.exe. The crash most frequently occurs immediately after completing a challenge during online party play. Once the challenge ends and the replay begins, the game may stutter briefly, then freeze, and finally close to desktop without displaying any in-game error message. The crash appears to be more likely when the party includes overseas players, suggesting a relationship to network latency or cross-region synchronisation during replay playback. Windows Event Viewer consistently logs the crash as a DirectX-related GPU device reset. The faulting application is skate.exe, while the faulting module is KERNELBASE.dll, which is a Windows system library that surfaces application-level failures rather than being the root cause. The recorded exception code is 0x887A0007, which corresponds to a DXGI device reset event. This indicates that Windows reset the graphics device while the game was running, likely due to a rendering or timing failure rather than a hardware fault. The full Event Viewer crash log is as follows: Faulting application name: skate.exe, version 1.0.0.0, time stamp 0x69372601. Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version 10.0.26100.7462, time stamp 0xe9f9d656. Exception code: 0x887a0007. Fault offset: 0x00000000000c782a. Faulting process id: 0x1C58. Faulting application start time: 0x1DC72368C51255D. Faulting application path: D:\EA\Skate\skate.exe. Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNELBASE.dll. Report ID: 8bce4d33-3aad-4f23-b45c-9696595a7954. Based on the circumstances of the crash, it appears likely that the replay system is encountering a rendering or synchronisation issue when handling replay playback in a networked party environment with higher latency players. The stutter observed before the crash suggests a stall in the render or GPU command queue, potentially triggering Windows Timeout Detection and Recovery, which results in the GPU device reset and immediate termination of the application. This issue is fully reproducible under the described conditions and does not appear to be caused by unstable hardware, driver corruption, overheating, or operating system instability. The system remains stable in all other applications and games. The crash only occurs in skate.exe and only under specific online replay conditions, indicating a likely software or engine-level issue related to online replay rendering or cross-region synchronisation.
[LD] [DU] Memorial Portraits/Graduation pictures show up blank
The memorial portraits from the Life and Death Expansion Pack appear to be bugged as they no longer generate an image of a deceased sim, instead showing a blank white image. Extra Information: I'm on Windows 11 PC I'm on Version 1.117.227.1030 DX11 of the game. I don't have Journey to Batuu and Outdoor Retreat Game Packs, Cool Kitchen, Perfect Patio and Luxury Party Stuff Packs, Refined Living Room, First Fits, Industrial Loft, Courtyard Oasis, Country Kitchen, Throwback Fit and Fashion Street Kits. Found initially in a modded save, but I tested in a non modded new save and the issue still occured. Edit by crinrict There's a few similar issues now. Please everyone use the appropriate thread for the issue you are seeing.

Worlds Visual Issues
I couldn't find a thread about this already when I looked. Apologies if there is one I missed. The Uptown area of San Myshuno has quite a few visual issues. Rather than create a thread for each, I'm collecting them all here. The greenery that hangs from the upper walkways has the wrong shader assigned which means the alpha channel doesn't work. For some reason it has the 'Road' shader instead of 'Phong'. Switching it to 'Phong' fixes the issue. The two small waterfalls in the central area run upwards instead of downwards. Rotating the uv mapping 180 degrees fixes this. (They need more tweaking to make the texture mapping actually look good and uniform though. The middle section texture clearly looks narrower than the outer side pieces.) The Steel girders that run around the perimeter of the area have their undersides meshed inside-out, so when viewed from underneath you can see the sky. This also means they cast a broken shadow. The various stone planters in the area are placed inconsistently with each other in a way that means some clip through wall sections, others flicker through the walls depending on the camera angle, and some flicker through the glass fences. The planter objects themselves are poorly textured. Join lines between blocks don't match up and some don't connect to matching joins on a neighbouring surface at all. All of these issues are well within the playable area where you would expect players to be looking and interacting with objects nearby so you don't have to look hard to find them. I'm playing on game version 1.114.46.1030 DX11 with graphics set to maximum. I own EP01, EP02, EP03, EP04, EP05, EP06, EP07, EP09, EP10, EP11, EP12, EP13, EP17, EP18, GP01, GP02, GP03, GP04, GP05, GP06, GP07, GP08, GP10, GP12, SP01, SP02, SP03, SP04, SP05, SP06, SP07, SP08, SP09, SP10, SP11, SP12, SP13, SP14, SP15, SP16, SP17, SP18 and a handful of Kits.
