@Ardeniia

Thanks. And it still isn't working correctly?

@Bluebellflora I was able to go to romace fair, that's at the same spot I think... Didn't do it on purpose, forgot it was there. But other than that the two apartments are glitched and either I can see similar graphic problems (more red maybe) or the whole game crashes.

@AnaBoteo

Oh no. Was this after a game or OS update? Did you see SimsQARobo’s post above yours? Would be super helpful if you could share the files he’s asking for Standard smile

Yeah, I have now tried all of this and nothing has worked.  I've gone as far as erasing my whole hard drive and starting over and that didn't work.  I've crashed 3-4 times today alone and it just seems like it's gotten work.  Even working from a new and fresh save file and it's still this bad.  It's just been so frustrating that after all these months no near getting anything resolved.  When the decorator pack came out I thought I was going to lose my mind.  I kept trying to make it through a job but like 5 out of 6 times I crashed in the middle of a job.  I am really losing faith anything is going to be done about it.

@Toddikins01

Have you shared a save with SimQARobo as he has requested above? The issue is most probably the GPU in your model Mac, or the driver, and the game. No amount on uninstalling and reformatting is going to fix that.

  • Does enabling Vertical Sync in the Graphics section of Game Options help at all?
    • It does not help.  I've still crashed multiple times since then, at least 4 times, twice today. 

I also mostly get the crash during gameplay, once in a while it happens during building.  I've crashed twice today already and I'm not expecting it to be the last.  I have other games I play that I have through Steam and never have the issues of crashing.  Has one crashed?  Sure but it's not daily or even monthly when it happens.  

 

Uploading two reports I get in Console for the crashes.  Now I did find the lastcrash but wouldn't attach a word doc.  Also noticed that lastcrash document was dated back in June and I've many crashes since that one.

@Toddikins01

All QA need at this point to help find the problem is your save, as SimQARobo has requested.

Your lastCrash report also shows you have Mods/CC installed. Does this still happen in a vanilla game? You need to test that by moving or renaming your entire Sims 4 folder so a new one is created.
