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.

If it worked and stopped working after you placed a lot in that particular world, please create a new thread as this issue is supposed to be fixed. The game goes back to the map when trying to load a household This behavior has multiple causes. You can read more info about it here: Loading a family just reloads the map. Most of the time you will get an error code but sometimes it just reloads the map. In most cases the game throws a LastException. Search both the Bug forum and Game/Mod issues if your error code already has a thread. The first two parts of the error code are relevant (For example 102:a0adad34). If there's a thread, check for solutions and if you need further help, post there. If you don't find a thread or you don't get an error code, create your own thread and post the LastException thrown (you can find the file in your documents folder. To upload create a rar file to upload or copy/paste the content in spoiler tags to your post).

After the recent update my game doesn't run smoothly (never had problems before). My sims outfit doesn't match in de icon underneath with what she is wearing. Going to school has the holiday pop up in the corner. So I don't see how long the morning free time is or what class is next. Like how it used to be. Also when I stop an interaction the sim wil continue to do the interaction (suddenly keeps being mean to friends even though she doesn't have the mean treat or is in an angry mood) The game is running pretty slow but my computer can handle the game normally fine The ui at the bottom keeps being very small even when I change the settings Is there a way to fix these things?172Views6likes1CommentGame won't load household after new update

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? I was playing often, making no updates then as soon as the large base game update occurred on oct 19/20 it now wont let me load the game.My Sims game wont load!
Whenever I try to play with my sims save it never loads. If I save it wont load and i lose my progress. if I go to manage worlds it will forever load. I checked and it's no problem with the mods-- just with the game. However when I made a new save it worked completely fine no problem. I really would like to play life and death in my old save so I really need this fixed.[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.

I have repaired my game, refreshed the sims 4 folder, uninstalled and reinstalled. i removed all mods. i created a new save and the problem wasnt present. this issue also isnt present in any of my other saves that i am currently playing so i am at a loss. the only issue is travelling, i am still able to play the household and they all go to work and do what i tell them as necessary. The last time the travel worked was when one of my sims got married to vlad on a newcrest lot and then i moved her and the kid out of my current household into his house. that was a few sim days ago but i dont remember any patches or updates around that time maybe something to do with love struck im not sure. I was thinking the save might be corrupted but im not sure since parts of it are loading. i would attach the save file here but im not sure how to.Game keeps loading
I can not play as the game keeps loading. I want to select my family that I had saved but after I do it keeps loading for ever a nothing happens only loading.

This is now 5 days so 5 days not able to play the game. Please help!!Can't play with different households
Hello, I play the Sims 4 on my ASUS TUF gaming laptop. Since the significant patch update before the Lovestruck expansion was released, I have had issues. After updating my mods in late August/ early September, I could finally play, and I took a break. Now, after starting the game, I'm only able to play with my saved household but unable to load and play with other households within the Sims worlds. Any time I go to save and manage worlds and select another household, either in the same world or different, it just ends up on an infinite loading screen, and I have to do a hard restart. I have checked all my mods, done the 50/50 method, and taken all of my mods/cc out and added them one by one. At this point, I'm at a loss for words and unsure what to do. Has anyone else been though this or is currently going through this?SolvedMy game will let me create a new game but not load into a saved game
Hello all, everytime I go onto my sims 4 and try to load into a saved game it just sits on the blue loading screen for hours, I tried last night to create a new game and see if it would let me do that and it did and I played in that game for hours but I saved it and got off for the night and today tried going back into the one I created last night and it’s again just sitting on the loading screen for hours, it wasn’t doing this until the most recent updates…. I reached out to support and they couldn’t help me so I figured I’d post it on here to see if anyone is dealing with this same issue and if so how did you resolve it? It’s extremely frustrating. I’m playing on windows btw! I also attached a photo of the loading screen that just sits up there for hours.
