Hey, I updated the sims 4 yesterday and since then i can't play the game. It is stuck on the loading screen after I click play in the main menu.

I am almost having the same issue. I open origin and open sims, but my sims won't load. It won't let me actually play it just sits on the main screen. I don't know what to do.

I had the same issue. I managed to fix it by removing my mods and cc, and repairing the game. The weird thing about the repair is that it took almost two minutes to complete unlike previous times where it took under 30 secs. There's no telling if my save will load again until I exit the game though (I currently have it open as of typing this). I will post an update in a while to confirm if the game will open the save again after saving and exiting.

I’m having the same issue. It only started after the most recent update. I’ve tried removing all my mods and cc and restarting my computer, but nothing helps.

I am having this issue too along with an infinity loop of the loadings screen when trying to access old saves. I even made a back up, and then made a whole new Sim 4 file. Yet I got this and unable to access my saves.
