Sims 4 glitches and crushes - TS4_x64.exe error if lucky enough to load

★★★★ Novice

I faced the problem of the game closing unexpectedly which it was ok after the latest Nov update but now things seem to get worse. The game struggles to load, if will load it crushes that much that even the sims time does not go by, and if I try to save in the first game play minute, before the glitch, it stops and says TS4_x64.exe error.

I am really tired of these problems this month ... 🥴

@melk1978 Same here. I haven't even been able to play Snowy Escape because of this...

@crinrict The "accepted" solution did not work for me, that's why I am still here.

Unfortunately, I don't think my problem is connected with Winterfest.

Game speed will not stay on ultra speed

★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.156.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Every expansion/pack/stuff pack EXCEPT Journey to Batuu
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Playing the game
What happens when the bug occurs? Whenever I click on ultra speed, it automatically reverts back to normal speed after a few seconds. Home lots and visiting other lots.
What do you expect to see? To be able to use the different speeds without them automatically switching back to normal speed
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

I've already repaired my game, removed all mods and cc, and even did a folder refresh. This all started a few days into playing with the fixed patch for the new update. It was fine one morning but after I save and exited the game and came back later that day, this problem started and has persisted ever since

@Unbounded13 The accepted solution is a statement of EA saying they're looking into it. Someone was asking if they are aware.So that's what that conversation was about.

@Karamazov123 If you think it's something else than Father Winter, please create your own thread in the tech forum of your platform, providing specs and information what exactly happens in your game and saying that you don't think it's the Father Winter issue.

Good Luck

@crinrict Mine is definitely Winterfest that's causing the problem. I uploaded my family to my library, and deleted EVERYTHING (I kept my old save), and have been playing a new house to see if there has been any issues, but everything is fine.. So it's definitely Winterfest for me 🥺

Re: Sims 4 glitches and crushes - TS4_x64.exe error if lucky enough to load

@lianaki1  Do you think this might be your issue?

 

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CURRENT-ISSUE-Game-Freeze-Extended-Loading-Times-Save-Game/m-p...

 

It's related to Winterfest and Father Winter, so it only applies if your sims are celebrating or have recently celebrated Winterfest.

 

If that's not your issue, please start a new save and see how it runs, just for comparison.
