Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.154.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Dine Out GP, Perfect Patio SP, Cool Kitchen SP, Movie Hangout SP, Backyard SP, Fitness SP, Laundry Day SP.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? load a save, start playing.
What happens when the bug occurs? it could be two minutes into gameplay (like when i initially loaded my save after the patch) or fifteen (subsequent times). it's random, because when a Sim gains a sentiment and the icon flashes on their relationship panel, the game might stop responding and eventually crash.
What do you expect to see? sentiments not crashing the game.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. updated to game version 1.68.154.1020.
rather random one. so far everything else works, but i can see that sentiments and crashing are related. it either works fine and i see the related notification about the sentiment, or the game hangs the second the sentiments icon starts flashing on the Sim's relationship panel (well, on the button that represents the panel).
i wonder if it's specific sentiments, since i can't tell which one a Sim is obtaining because the game stops responding before it registers fully. but so far, the only one that hasn't crashed the game is "Closer from Happy Memories". might be a coincidence, but. just in case.
if Sims don't interact with each other and hence don't obtain sentiments, i can play without issues as before the patch.
as usual, tested with no mods/cc, and having repaired the game after the patch.
