[Gallery] Pack tags missing for debug and live edit objects
Since today's Gallery update, pack icons for Debug objects have disappeared from lots/rooms featuring them. Live Edit and Debug items never showed up under "used items", but the pack icon they were from always did show under the preview photo. ISSUE: Pack icons for debug or live edit items don't show under "Uses items from these packs". They also don't show if you select the pack in the sidebar. E.g. I have a few rooms with Adventure Awaits debug/live edit objects in the gallery. But they're no longer tagged with the Adventure Awaits icon. People without Adventure Awaits will think they can download these, but the items won't show up in their game.
[GALLERY] 'Timed Out' error when saving lot to Library/Gallery
What is happening: Prior to the Jan 13 update, I received a generic "server error" when I tried to save lots to my gallery. Following the patch notes that said that this issue was fixed, I went through some of my lots to back them up to my library with my updated game. Attempting to upload a lot now gives me an error message reading "Timed out during upload. Please check internet connection or try again in a minute." When I exit out from this message by clicking "Okay," I return to the window that allows you to set bedrooms/bathrooms and add a description to the lot before uploading. After a minute or two, I then get a green pop-up notification in the corner that the lot has been saved to my library, and it is indeed there when I check. I have not yet tested this with the "Upload to Gallery" button, only the "Save to Library" button. What I expect to see: I think it would be more useful to just have the "uploading to Gallery" loading animation for longer if it is just continuing to upload it in the background, as it's more reliable than getting an error message and then it actually working a couple of minutes later.

[GALLERY] Default sort order changed to most popular
After the March 17 patch, I logged into my personal gallery page. The images show in download order, rather than newest. That means unless a user knows to look beyond the front page, they won't see my newest creations. I've tried resetting it several times, and it keeps going back to downloads order. I'm not very happy about this. Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title
'My Favorites' Not Loading Properly
When I open my Favorites section in the Sims 4 Gallery, it only displays up to 25 items, even though I have favorited significantly more than that. The additional items beyond the 25 are not visible, making it impossible to access or manage the rest of my favorited creations.

So i’m trying to redo each lot/world in my legacy save. After placing a lot from the Gallery (tested both via map view and from within build mode), build mode breaks and I’m unable to place any items. I can pick objects up and they will follow my cursor, but clicking to place them does nothing and the object just snaps back to its original position. I can duplicated with the eyedrop, but it won’t place. Pressing H returns it to where it was before I picked it up. The only exception is if I delete something first. Then I can place ONE thing down before the bug triggers again. Once triggered, build mode stays broken for the entire session until I restart the game and place from the gallery again. Steps I’ve already taken with no fix: • Removed all mods/CC from the mods folder and disabled them through the game • Repaired the game through the EA App • Updated graphics drivers and Windows • Restarted PC • Tested on a brand new save file • Tested with different lot types and gallery listings • Deleted the localtbumbcache file The issue consistently triggers after placing a lot from the Gallery and going through the placement process. Not a corrupted save issue since it happens on fresh saves too.
[GALLERY] Filters for packs not working in the gallery
Hope this is the correct forum to post this. When filtering the gallery for lots and I select 'Show Owned' or select only specific packs, 98% of the lots that come up are base game lots with no pack-specific content. What gives? Note by crinrict Some information on the history for this. It's currently working how it was when the game first came out. It was an inclusive filter rather than an exclusive one. This was called by design. With Patch 1.108.349 this was changed probably because if issues with Cupid's Corner. It still didn't didn't work properly as it prompted a different kind of bug report, which mostly involved the gallery filter not working properly if you just chose one pack. Seems the changes have now been reverted but I personally haven't seen any reports for Cupid's Corner now also being broken again so maybe the team found another way to fix Cupid's Corner and go back to the inclusive filter it originally was. At this point it's unclear what's intended and what not. Maxis will need to clarify so it's currently treated as a new bug but it might come back as design again. I can only speculate.
