Last night I was so angered at this game.
I finished working on a household in Del Sol Valley on the 20x20 Ward Park lot. Originally I tried to move someone into it, went to play it and it crashed. Tried again, it crashed.
So last night, I added it to the Library and put it on the Movers & Shakers lot in Willows Creek. Made some adjustments to it since it was a bigger lot, moved two people in and went to play it. Game crashed.
Reloaded the game, move the two people in and went to play it. Game crashed.

ENOUGH EA!! When are you going to fix this???

After a month of not being able to play after installing Eco Lifestyle, I saved my house and my household to my library and started a new save. I was able to keep my progress and simoleons but lost my inventory. Maybe this will help.

This problem honestly makes the game unplayable, I either have to deal with the random crashes and losing progress or continuously save the game, which brings its own dangers.

I had the same problem. I tried all the troubleshooting and it didn't really do anything. The game would still crash in and out of build mode or the tripod. Or just when I tried to travel. But now it's crashing completely out of nowhere. And frequently too. I'll be in build mode or even live mode and it will just shut down. No drop in frame rate, no trigger. It just closes the game.

What happens when the bug occurs? Almost as soon as I load up my game, it crashes. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or rhythm to when it happens
What do you expect to see? That I can play without crashes

I know that the June update caused crashing etc. and that there was supposed to be a ‘hot fix’ or something but I’ve even had the July update and it’s still crashing. I didn’t notice until today because I was away for two weeks but I have tried all the advice in restarting, resetting etc. I even deleted some games off my Xbox in case it was a storage issue. I tried for an hour and no result.

I can’t seem to play at all.

The July Patch didn't fix the continues crashing when sims attempt to travel as well when exiting build and buy mode. This is happening in both new and old saves. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR THIS TO BE FIXED!? This has been happening since 2018!
