Plants are no longer producing harvestables

Photos turn Black (Patch 1.120.140/2.26)
When loading into my game from my last save from last night (January 12), all my photos across the save are there. Now when I try to save today after the update, upon logging back into the game all the photos have turned black! I had to load back to the previous save from last night to get my photos back. But now I can no longer play/ save the game!! The photo system is completely broken. I don't know what code they put into this new update, but I cannot play anymore without the pictures turning black after saving. Please help fix it, I don't know what else to do other than ask for help. I tried making a new save, but photos still turn black. I've no mods/cc installed. The update today mentioned "fixes" with photo system items like graduation photos, celebrity photos, memorial photos, but I have a feeling somewhere within that coding something has gone wrong for existing photos. EDIT: Paintings are affected too. They turn white. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title Note by crinrict More info from Maxis on the issue: Photos turn Black (Patch 1.120.140/2.26) | EA Forums - 13095325 Please use the following threads for other instances of this issue Painting by reference Turns white (Patch 1.120.140/2.26) | EA Forums - 13096441 [COL] Cross-Stich by Ref turning white/blank | EA Forums - 13016359 Please create a new thread if you have this for Puzzles as it currently doesn't have one. Note by crinrict Thanks for all that have provided info. Seeing that Maxis is on top of this, I will personally stop testing on this. Thanks to everyone that sent me saves. For a possible workaround by jacknifelee please see this post (apologies if someone else posted this earlier, I haven't had time to read the whole thread): Photos turn Black (Patch 1.120.140/2.26) | EA Forums - 13095325 Also a note for the next upcoming fix. Since black photos are a symptom of a bug and not a bug itself, the issue can have many causes and each needs to be fixed separately. The only safe thing you can do is keep backups of your save game and/or upload rooms with your photos to your library or gallery. This is true for the upcoming patch when they fix another instance. Do not throw your backups away. Keep them safe. You can also keep the files in the screenshot folder in a safe place and then restore them from there if necessary: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2025/04/custom-photos-in-game-fix-for-black-photos/ (it's a bit of a tedious method and unfortunately doesn't work for console) You can also find a mini tutorial here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/mini-tutorial-148326243 to restore them from a backup. I haven't personally tested this though.
'System Error' when placing lot
I built a basegame home and went to place it on Pique Hearth. I had bulldozed Pique Hearth on a previous occasion. When I went to place the house I'd built from my Gallery I get a "system error" message and the lot wouldn't load. I then tried to place the home on the next door lot and I got the same message. The image attached is when I tried placing the house I'd built on the Riverside Roost lot right next to Pique Hearth, where it happened the first time I tried to place it.
New fix
Please fix all the bugs and crashes and issues while during saving and traveling, This happens to me every time when I use travel, but seconds later it crashes on the PS5, Can you please fix all these worst bugs? I really appreciate if you fixed the game entirely! All of the hard work you done!
[W] Werewolf eyes/ears/face glitching out
You guys really need to fix the occult packs, specifically the werewolf pack. Not only have you not fixed the nose colours which are still glitched by the way but now there’s another glitch which I just discovered yesterday. After having my sim get bitten by a werewolf and this is what happened during her first transformation. All the other townie werewolf’s are fine, but this happened in game and also in CAS. Please fix the werewolf pack, it’s been bugged out for way too long. I play on PS5 and don’t use mods or cc obviously but I’m not the only person this has happened to. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title to fit old bug report.SoS!! I think my family has gotten deleted!
I just got back on the sims after about a month. I only have a few households and instead of playing my main, i decided to finish the quest that i’ve been playing. Once i decided to check on my family, the save wasn’t there anymore. I haven’t bought any packs and i’m playing on a ps5! What do i do!?
