Game Freezes after August 8 Patch Update
So i have updated my game to the recent patch on August 8 so here is my issue, after playing several minutes the game crashes/freeze that i have to force shutdown my PC. Hoping EA can address this issues. Sims is becoming unplayable since the update.986Views8likes14CommentsCan't save lots to gallery or library.
I'd like to preface this by saying I don't have any mods or CC installed (boring I know). I've tried repairing the game via the EA App, restarting my laptop, and deleting previous saves to my library to clear space. I read that clearing cache can help but I can't find a cache folder under my Electronic Arts files. I'm able to download from the gallery and my library still, just not able to upload thing on there. I've had this issue for the last three years but thought that updates might fix it, which they didn't, and I stopped playing the game for about two years. Now that I've returned, this is a really frustrating problem. I have quite a few expansion packs, so it could be an issue with those but as I said above, I've tried repairing the game and I don't know anyone else who has packs with this issue. It's not coming up with a specific error code, just says 'there is an issue saving this lot to your library/to the gallery.' I've contacted EA Support who said they'll get in touch with the technical team on my behalf and contact me with an update, but they also said it would be worthwhile to post on the forum.Sims 4 Frequent Crahses
Before you ask: No, I never play with mods and have none installed. Yes, my OS is updated. Yes, my game is updated. Yes, I've repaired my game. Yes, I deleted and reinstalled the EA app. Yes, I've deleted the localthumbcache.package. Yes, I've deleted the onlinethumbnailcache folder. Yes, I renamed my Sims 4 folder and moved it to the desktop, yes, I started a new save . And yes, I've restarted my computer. I've been playing this game for over a decade, I know the basic and advanced troubleshooting methods better than I know my own parents, so I think its time EA address that they are the ones breaking this game, not the users. Ever since the Destroyed by Nature expansion pack came out, my game crashes about every 40 minutes. I know it's not just me having this problem as every simmer on YouTube is experiencing the same problem. As a consumer, it's not to much to ask for a functional product, or a refund for the $1000+ we/I have spent on broken and unplayable DLC Fix the frequent crashes ThanksInfinite saving/loading screens
I originally started having this issue after the September update and saw other people were having the same issue and followed all the advice given. updated all mods removed all CC started a new save (with no CC) removed off-the-grid lot types switched back to DX9 Unfortunately, none of these worked so I decided to wait until the next patch and try again. After the October patch, I updated everything and it's still happening. Whether I'm loading/travelling with a family, exiting CAS, or saving when building on a community lot. I'm completely out of ideas of what I can do at this point; I have plenty of space on my PC and while loading can be slow sometimes, I know that's because I have quite a few packs and CC and I've never minded. But the infinite screens are getting too much, I can't play the game at all without running in to one and I end up losing any progress I've made. Really hoping someone can help or this bug can be lessened at least in the next update. 🤞4.2KViews4likes12Commentssims 4 not working every other day

is anyone else having issues with their game infinitely loading after the new love struck patch? my game is completely unplayable — at first, my cas wouldn’t load and it turned out to be a mod causing the issue so i updated it and it fixed the problem but when i loaded up a save, it just sat and loaded and loaded and never loaded so i took out every single mod and did an entirely new save and even THATS not loading and infinitely loading i’m seriously sick of every update being just a game breaker — i can’t even start a new save, because i manage to exit cas, choose a lot and then get stuck on infinite loading when trying to start in the world , it’s crazy479Views3likes2CommentsRecently Purchased Add-Ons Can't Be Found
Howdy! Just purchased Get Together and Nifty Knitting, neither pack are showing anywhere in the EA app (library, manage add-ons, etc.). I have logged out/back in, turned off/back on, and uninstalled/reinstalled all of the things. I have a purchase conformation and everything so the purchase was completed with no issue, but they're just nowhere to be found. HALP!273Views3likes3CommentsSims 4 Keeps Crashing - Unknown Issue
Hi everyone, So back in January after the update dropped, I splurged and got the Laundry pack, Wedding Stories, Love struck and Get Famous DLC's. Ever since then, the game has stopped working. I can get loaded into my save, I'll play for 5-10 minutes and it'll stutter/freeze for a second then crash with no error report. I've tried "repairing" it through the EA app, reinstalling, starting new saves, switched between Direct X9 and 11, drivers are up to date, playing with and without mods, I tried uninstalling the newly acquired DLC's and nothing has worked. I've spent the last month or so try to fix it but am out of solutions. Seen some others on Reddit posting similar problems, but there were no answers or fixes. Hopefully I can get some help here!

I'm playing on PC. LMB works to open options, build/buy mode, phone, all UI menu tabs. But I can't click/interact with objects such as toilets, televisions, couches, etc, or other sims. I tried repairing the game through the EA app, uninstalling and reinstalling the game, playing in fullscreen, windowed, and windowed fullscreen, and disabling mods and CC. I'm having this issue with every sim on every lot in every save. I can't figure out what's going on, please help!! I thought it might be related to the Grim Reaper event but it doesn't seem like anyone else is having this issue.Solved704Views2likes8Comments
