Re: Save file deletes all households after reloading

@MakThePrince I do believe the issue is caused by a mod (but I've found folks that haven't been using that certain adult mod and still have issues). I'm currently unsure which one it is (could be multiple too)

I believe what happens is that the game culls the Sims but leaves the households. Why that happens is anyone's guess. I'm not sure if it's because of removing the mod or just the mere fact that something is loaded with a version.

The issue is old but in the past, removing the mod was enough to fix the issue. Now it doesn't seem to be the case.

Do you have ANY backups that are still intact ?

It would be great to have a list of the mods you are using (please no links or naming of adult mods) as well as your savegame and any backups (borked or not) of it that you still have.

You can PM me the info.

 

EDIT: I made a new info request thread and moved yours into this one.

@xosimplygrace I split your post from the Patch notes.

Could you tell me what error code you're getting in detail ? Are you using mods/CC in your game ?

Just go to the documents folder on your hard drive, zip the entire folder and upload. That would work.

@crinrict i can go into the game, create a sim, try to place them on a loy but as soon as it finishes the load screen it gives me the error code, then, when i click on my households, it loads then gives me the error code, then blue glitching squares appear in the sims thing above houses. i dont have any mods in my folder atm so its not a mod issue, ea live chat told me it was the base game error, i just want to know if there is something i can do or when i can expect a fix/ patch update to be places so i can play my game..

@xosimplygrace Are we talking about this issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/INFO-REQUEST-Sims-disappeared-from-household-Blue-flas... ?

Have you never used mods/cc ? Aka, never put anything in your mods folder ? Is that empty ?
