Crashing on Save - No Mods or CC - Game repair and folder refresh don't help

★★★★★ Apprentice

Sims 4 is crashing on Mac whenever I add Sims and then try to save my game. Even after a game repair and folder refresh. I have no mods or CC, this has been an ongoing issue for two weeks, possibly since the last update. Is its because I have unlimited Sims on not 80? I'm not even close to adding even 80 custom townies though . I put then on lots, then evict them, then put them in unplayed households and press save then it crashes and the game does not save before the crash.  I am at my with this. 

 

Here are my system specs if that helps. No, I am not upgrading to Catalina until I am sure that Sims 4 is absolutely stable on it.

@PurpleSweetTart

Have you changed the number of households options to 80 and seen if it fixes the issue?

@PurpleSweetTart  Please move your entire Sims 4 game folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  Launch the game to spawn a clean folder.  Then go into Saves inside your old folder, find your most recent save, and copy it (don't just move it; you want to keep a backup) into Saves in your new folder.  Don't move anything else over: no mods or cc, no options file, nothing.  Launch the game again and test.  Let us know whether you get the same crashes.
