I have the same problem.
Playing on ps4 with all packs installed (including eco). Everything seems to work but after clicking on the in-game computer time freezes but the game seems to continue running (sims still moving arms while playing instruments, stars are moving etc.)
After about 1 or 2 minutes (real time) the game crashes and ps4 reports an CE-34878-0 error and ends the game.
I installed ECO pack together with the june patch so I cannot decice which of them introduced the problem.
Please help,
thanks

@niander I don't understand what You mean, Sorry. Can You please elaborate? I haven't at this point made/ started a new Family/ saved Game. I moved an old existing family, into the neighbourhood. But I'm willing to try some experimenting, if You can give me some guidelines.

Please describe the patch or change you made. The most recent patch made available and the purchasing of Eco Lifestyle.
Additional information:
I was able to fix this issue by creating a new save (moving my existing files out). Repairing the game did not work. Once I restored my old save, the issues continued. That being said, I spent an entire year with this save file so I would rather not have to resort to completely playing a new game due to purchasing DLC.
