Black Photos & Paintings after update 1.124.54/2.33
Hey Simmers, Today we released an update that addresses the remaining known causes of the black photo issue we’ve been tracking. Because this problem can occur in a variety of situations, we’re still monitoring for any new instances. If you encounter black photos or paintings, please report it here so we can track and investigate it properly. We understand how important these photos and paintings are, and we’re continuing to investigate all scenarios where this issue may appear. If you’re still experiencing it, please share the following details: Is this happening with old, or new photos? Are you using a brand new save, or an old one? What were you doing when this happened? (i.e. taking a photo out of your Sim’s inventory, swapping households, traveling) Are you actively loaded into the lot where the painting/photo is placed? How were these photos taken? (i.e. paintings, with the camera, through the photo booth, or with the phone) For paintings, was this a custom paint from reference, or a normal painting? Was the painting downloaded from the Gallery? Did you add any filters to the photos? What quality is the photo or painting?
Visual bug
Hi, I got wrong colors in some areas which are red instead of black or grey. Everything was fine with my 4090 but after upgrading to a 5090 this visual glitch appeared. Got the newest driver 576.52 and I tested some older one with the same result. Cleared the shader cache and reinstalled the game and also veryfied the game files. The glitch appears in hdr and sdr and I also checked the accessibility options which are all off. Any ideas?
Paintings From reference Overexposed
Hello! After the 5/12/2026 patch, I have noticed all of my existing reference paintings are suddenly overexposed. These paintings were already completed and hung on the walls prior to the patch. This is also applying to their copies that I keep in household inventories (due to the previous blank painting issue), as well as new copies made. It is difficult to tell at the moment as I am still experiment, but I think the exposure is ramped up on new reference paintings too. I am still trying to find screenshots that may include the paintings pre-patch, but attached are some of the washed out paintings. All three of these were previously fully defined and easy to read. I have attached the screenshots taken when the portraits were made as a light reference. I track the entire multigenerational family in this save with formal portraits so this is really stressful to see, despite not being game breaking. I really do not want to redo all of this family's paintings, especially since some of the sims have died at this point. I do use limited mods: MCCC and Better Build Buy. I keep both of these updated with every patch as well. Removing the mods does not change the issue.Issue with Newcrest
Terribly sorry, I do not know the finer terminology. I started a build in Newcrest, on the Oak Alcove lot next to Comfy Cubby. I noticed as I moved the camera around that I kept catching a blue line in the grass. On closer inspection, it appears to be a stick shaped hole in the ground revealing some kind of blue mesh. It does not persist when moving down into the basement level, and also stopped happening after I went to the world manager to reload the lot. It did happen again in the same spot on the ground after reloading my game. I had no means to take a picture but I hope this was descriptive enough.jagged edges on legs with female sims
Hi, im having a n issue with my sims 4, i can see jagged edges on my sims thighs. I deleted the entire folder game and the electronic arts too, i removed all my sims mods/cc and the visual error still there, i already changed my nvidia settings but nothing worked so im writing this post, any solution?
Huge frames drop and stutter on PC
Since the 05/12 update the game becomes increasingly choppy and it's unplayable after a while (~15-20 minutes of free play). It happens both on Grom and San Van. The problem persists after game restart (as soon as i enter the game), but a pc reboot "resets" the issue until it happens again. The game was running fine before this update.My whole sims save is gone
My sims generation save has completely gone !!! saying something about Error Code 34!!! Only really old saves are coming up , I can’t believe this I’ve used this generations save for like 2 years !!! I play on XBOX never had this after an update, really hoping I can get it back.
