@4llen11 Yeah, I thought it was a platform or wall or something just glancing at it. I only noticed that they were emitters when looking closely.

@crinrictscratch that went straight back to endless loading screen

FOUND THE PROBLEM
IT WAS ONE OF THE POOLS IN THE FRONT OF THE BUILD not the water emitters

I get my hopes up too much. Same dam issue even after removing the front pool. Still trying to figure out the issue.
Like i make the changes and then i can save and go back to the world and it works, but then i try it again after exiting my game and its back to infinite loading screen

Re: Endless loading time after patch update

Having the same issue with endless loading and/or crashing when placing certain lots, so I did a little cross-platform experimenting. From what I can tell, it's absolutely modded content that's doing it, probably from TOOL, as has been mentioned in this thread. I don't use this mod myself but I was placing Gallery downloads that do appear to have used it. So I took the builds giving me trouble and placed them in a game on console to nix the CC, then temporarily re-uploaded to Gallery so I could get the same build w/o CC onto my PC. I was then able to place the build onto the same lot without issue. Obviously this is not a practical workaround since not everyone plays cross-platform, but it does seem to confirm the nature of the problem.

Re: There’s something wrong with my saves file…

★★ Novice

Hey, thank you for answering me.  so i’ve tried to load my game to the last save files  that i had without clicking the resume button then it actually went through to the world map and then it crashed again . So now i tried to play my recovery save and it actually work with my recovery save. The last thing that i actually did on my household , before i saved is actually move them and take a building from the gallery and then save it and the next day when i want to play , it just crash all the time (like won’t even let me play) . Do you think there’s a connection between this ?

@4llen11 Funny, it worked for me removing the emitters. I'm pretty sure I closed the game and loaded back in and it still worked but I've done so much testing with so many different lots, I can't be sure anymore :

The pool was no issue for me. If you move out your family with all the furniture, can you move in with another family (no furniture), can you then load it reproducible ? If so, that kinda rules out any structures.

I don't have any time for further testing before XMas and there's lots of other issues that need attention so I will move on from this now.

@Moozilla13 That's interesting cause I've been suspecting the placement.

Could you try loading the following lot (it's in the gallery) through console ? It's called Steampunk Tinker Studio.

Good Luck

@crinrictWell for me it worked once and then it stopped working. It is very strange, but I will try and do a game reset to see if that fixes the issue. However thank you for the 2 weeks of attention.

@crinrict update, so far the restart is unfruitful, but i'll try and fix the issue on my end and troubleshooting it
hopefully blue will find something like a debugged item and notify me as soon as possible
