error

@Wasabi9191 WHat's the solution??

There isn't one.   Try to recover a save, try a new save, avoid using CAS, avoid changing lots.   Maybe you'll get to play for a bit before it craps out again.

There's a patch now.

I haven't seen the notes yet but maybe it's worth checking out.

Testing saves I have as we speak

There were many "glitchy" things happening with the game (Sims going to bed and getting up right away, actions being canceled, peeing fire, etc) but I chalked this up to part of the Sims playing experience. I installed the patch when it first came out back in June, and then on July 3rd I shut my game off for the night and the next day (July 4th) I went to play again and my game stopped working - I am unable to play at all without getting the error code mentioned above. I've tried loading the game without any CC and that did nothing.

Fixed an issue which caused Error 134:b378c837 to occur.
O Hello Error 134, was it me you were looking for? I don’t wonder where you are (now) and I don’t wonder what you do (now), I hope you don’t get lonely…

Fixed in Patch 1.64.84

.. So .. tested a few saves but I made the mistake that I lumped all 134 in the same folder so I'm not sure if I'm testing the right ones

I'm still seeing this one: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CURRENT-ISSUE-PC-Error-Code-134-64b8a94a/td-p/9213831

The one this thread was about is fixed as they said from the short tests I made.

That's wonderful news! Where do we get the patch? I got my copy through Steam and nothing's showing up

[crinrict]

@541113129 I'm not sure about Steam tbh. Maybe it takes a bit longer there until it shows up.

Thanks for sharing the patch notes update on this @crinrict. I'll lock this thread here.

If the issue persists for anyone after updating their game with the newest patch, please create a new Bug Report.

Thanks,
