I really hope a solution for bigger save files can be found.
Other wise it doesn't make sence releasing/buying more content.
There are loading screens for every world/neighbourhood/lot so the game should support that.

My save file has 90 mb. And as previously said by the colleagues it make no sense to buy new packs if the game cannot support all these packs, worlds and Sims. I have lot of my own builds and Sims and if the game is constantly generating new ones it does not surprise me that the save file got corrupted, but what can I say? I am so disappointed because you work on your game to be perfect, then you buy another pack and you hope you can extend your gameplay with the new features and then you realize you can do nothing. Should I claim for refund? Because what can I do in this case is to uninstall Lovestruck, look for my previous save file and pray that it will work again…. And that’s the only idea I have. You cannot even imagine how mad I am because of this.

Everything just seems gone in my save...
Thursday
Have you been using mods for custom lot/venue types? I've noticed that lot reverts to it's default if you've been using the mentioned ones and removed them without setting the lot type to in-game manually before removing the mod.
Friday
How about people who do not use mods? I can only confirm that when I bulldozed some of my lots the surrounding has been restored and I am able to see all my lots from the distance again, but what is the sense of that? It means I cannot fill all the worlds with my builds and I have to leave the worlds half empty? Why then I bought all the packs when EA and The Sims didn’t warn us about the consequences? Are they really that greedy? And the fact that some worlds have only few lots to fulfill but still I cannot do it, because the game cannot handle all the Sims and worlds full of lots. That is pointless and the most stupid thing they’ve done with this game. And… I am sorry, but I won’t be creating plenty of save files for each individual world. That is not a solution. I hope that other gamers who experienced the same glitch will finally speak up about this. And most important - developers will find a way to solve this. I did not spend more than 1200 dollars just to end with corrupted save file.

OMG I am having the same exact problem. The first symptom I noticed is that apartments in San MyShuno started showing $0 as being furnished. No Sim died on the lots, no sim moved and took the furnishings because I’m controlling all of them and I disabled moves without me moving them.
Second symptom tried moving my Sim family and they got stuck in a time loop, literally when I closed and reopened the save it would start back Sunday at 1:06PM. Even when I played over a full sim week. I did A LOT of trouble shooting the same tired game repair, delete cache, I eventually renamed the folder OLD and repaired the game to generate new files, put the save back in (no mods) same time loop.
Third, I found a backup file of the save from last week and the time issue was fixed but the furnishing issue was the same. Then came the grand finale, sent my sim to visit her boyfriend and even though I completely renovated Oasis Springs, it only showed the default EA base game and empty lots in live view. I could see the lot when my sim was in it, I could see it from the households who lived in it and on map view but NOT live view.
There’s literally nothing new I'm doing to my game i haven’t done since I started back playing last year but since this update it’s one issue after the next. I am assuming that save is corrupted, how? I have no idea. And of course there is no way to rebuild relationships as I had three generations in three different families across multiple homes. I’m so upset.

Also will add I never saw the exclamations over any lot in this game and this save I JUST started late July specifically because I didn’t trust the update with my legacy saves but of course now playing it almost a month in, a lot has happened in game. I also never had very long loading screens. I do have three residential rentals, two I built myself and have been suing in other saves and one I pulled from the gallery.

Since the latest lovestruck pack EA removed the exclamation marks but didnt fix the issue. Most of you are probably legacy players and most likely have the same issue as i described in my post here...
Spoiler alert: EA have no intention on fixing it
