old saves from before legacy not showing up

[m0na1]

So about a bit over a year ago I had to get Legacy edition for the Sims and when I got on none of my old saves were there. So what I looked up what i should do and there was posts saying I should put my saves file from my original Sims 4 file into the legacy file. I got onto the game and noticed only some of my old saves appeared. i thought that the remaining saves would appear once I got a better computer to not be on legacy. Once I got a new computer I put my save file that I had put into my legacy file back into the regular Sims file but I played the game and the old saves I had before legacy never appeared back. Like they are still in the file, they just don't show up in the game

@m0na1

Yes, that looks right. Are all of your saves in there? Can you post a screenshot showing the contents of the saves folder.

[m0na1]

@Bluebellflora 

Yes, here it is. And in the folder theres many other files that look exactly like the one in the picture

Can you please send me one of the saves so I can test in my game? Upload to a file sharing site and PM me the link.

The ones ending in .save are the actual saves. The others, ending in.ver then a number, are backups.

@Bluebellflora 

Okay I just sent it to you

Thanks I managed to load the save in my current, non-Legacy game. Have you tried loading it without your CC? Try a completely new Sims 4 folder by dragging the current one to the desktop, load the game so a new one is created, then copy this save into the newly created saves folder. Don't copy anything else over.

Okay, so i tried that and it did work! But that one did happen to be one of the saves that was working fine, so should I try the same thing with another save file?

Yes
