S4 Mac Platform Update *Crashing*

[hdxo7]

Here are my Config.log and lastCrash. I just played the game again to ensure I was having same issue. I was playing for about 40 minutes when it crashed. I was traveling to my home lot from the lounge in Del Sol Valley when the game just exited with no lagging beforehand or any error message. I have no mods/CC. I have also repaired my game.

Since the latest patch, the game was ok for a couple of hours before the first crash, after which the game crashes every time around 10 mins in, no matter in live mode or in build mode. Attached please find the config log and the most recent two crash reports. Thanks!

Can't see the point of having pre-ordered the new pack if this issue isn't fixed in time ><

My game crashed again and this time i didnt travel anywhere and honestly it made the situation worse for me since i was thinking the issue might be about traveling but nope :/ I was having a keg party in my student housing then it crashed again without any error message. I also agree with @VivienneDelilah , i was so hyped about new expansion pack but under those conditions there is no point in playing the game because it is crashing just randomly and takes the fun away. My recent config and the newly added crash report:

The same exact thing happened to me. I was playing for about 40 minutes and my game crashed. It's been happening every single time I've tried to play since the 11.10.20 update, with and without mods (I removed them right before the update and after I went into my save for about 10 minutes, my game randomly crashed). It happed when I was in build/buy and just recently when I was feeding the cat a vet treat.

For some reason I keep getting the - The attachment's lastcrash.txt content type (text/plain) does not match its file extension and has been removed - Warning so I copy/pasted the text below

Hi 

I just updated my game and it crushed after playing about 30mins ( I tried several times!)

I am playing it on my Macbook Pro macOS Catalina 10.15.7  and I don't use any MODS or customised content. 

It never happened before (crashing after update), please help me!

I am so exciting for the new game pack which is available to play tomorrow, but the crashing is making me so upset. ;(((((

I had no problems after the update on November 20th while in build mode but as soon as I start playing in Live Mode, I bet I get 15 minutes tops and it crashes. It's been on the home lot, on community lots. It doesn't go off with any particular action. 

I have a Mac so that might have something to do with it?

I'm going to be waiting for the patch on Friday before I start doing major diagnosis; it's 100% the patch, and my settings haven't changed since the last time I went through this, so... Whee. I just don't have the energy.

The only new thing I can contribute is this screenshot.

I get this every time I play, and I crash within 2-5 minutes of hitting play vs pause. But hey, it doesn't crash while paused.

(I have not tried building while it's crashing.)

@RJBlain Have they said there will be a patch on Friday? Or is there normally a patch on the day of a release? Sorry if this is a dumb question- I've never had an issue with a game update so I have never followed them before now

The new game expansion launches on Friday.

Hi,

I had the same problem today. The game crashed 2 times, although I don't know after how many minutes of gameplay. Since I lost what I had done so far during that time, I decided to save my game every few minutes. Strangely enough, I could play for hours doing that... it was annoying, but not as annoying as losing my progress.
