Placing lots from the gallery freezes game/endless loading
Computer: PC, Windows 10 I am having issues with the game after the February 25th update where trying to use the gallery effectively doesn't work. I am connected to the internet and initially it'll work fine but when trying to use it repeatedly, such as trying out multiple uploaded lots, the gallery will become stuck on the loading screen and won't load anymore lots, and will tell me that it is having issues. I have tried updating my drivers, removing the tray file, removing all mods, and repairing the game but it still keeps happening. These attempts initially worked for a bit but eventually the gallery would freeze again. Any help would be appreciated. I also recently upgraded my computer so it is possible that it's related to that but as far as I can tell my GPU, CPU and ram is all working as intended. Again, I made sure drivers were updated as I heard that that could cause some issues. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title Edit by crinrict Please see this for more info on Endless Loading: [PLEASE READ] Crashing and Endless Loading | EA Forums - 5037259 This thread is specifically for endless loading after placing multiple/random lots from the gallery. The same lots might work in a new save. If you have the issue for a specific lot in all saves/lots, please use this thread instead: Endless Loading/Crashing when trying to load a certain lot (broken object(s)) | EA Forums - 5037252
[CL] Garage door/mural disappears when placed and breaks lots
I have noticed that, since the most recent patch update, a lot of my lots are broken. I have identified the core issue: the DIY Garage Mural from City Living is broken. If I try to place that item onto a Lot, it subtracts the funds + makes a sound of an item being placed, but nothing actually happens. Further, if I try to load a lot that already has this item, I will get an infinite loading screen. If I go to an empty lot then try to add a house or room from my gallery that has this item, I will then have an infinite save or loading screen, or lose ability to interact with the UI. If I load the game without City Living installed, all these lots are completely fine and playable. I saw that EA_Cade was asking for save files that have experienced this bug, but that post was 9 months ago and I have only experienced this issue since the latest patch.

Loading Legacy Family Tree freezes game
"Incorrect connection occurs when there are 10 or more wives and 30 or more descendants. Tree Collapse occurs when there are 50 or more descendants." This issue occurred before the family tree update. The new family tree freezes (app unresponsive), possibly because it has more than 100 descendants. The family tree before the update displays without freezing (app unresponsive), but the tree collapses. Possible cause: The field displaying the family tree is not properly expanded.
