Yeah, in fact I'm having more gallery issues than I did before. Every time I click on an item it freezes my game and I have to close my game with the task manager and restart it again. =(


Are you using the UI Cheat Extension mod ? If so, please remove/update

Re: New Gallery Update broken

The updated UI Cheats extension is out now on Mod the Sims, you can find it there.

Re: Game Freezes in Gallery

★ Novice

For me, when I try to save a family or a house on the gallery, I go to try and upload and nothing happens. I can go and change the description and the title but I can't do anything other than that and I end up having to shut my game down and I lose all the progress I've made. It doesn't show a loading bar or anything, it just acts as if it has frozen but I can still make changes to the description, title, and in CAS I can change the portrait.

Hi @BaekHunie

 

I don't have any issues currently myself. Do you use any mods in your game ? If you do, did you make sure they are updated ?

Why is the screen darker after exiting the gallery? And why can't I click anything? This only occurred after EA changed the layout of the gallery... I'm confused, please help.

Hi @Soxes20 and @kaemahon

 

if you're using the UI Cheat extension mod, please make sure to get the newest version for that. This has been known to cause the issue you're seeing.

Re: Gallery Issues - Please post here

★ Novice

I’ve been having trouble with the gallery, I’ve tried to place down lots and it ends up freezing and I have to use alt+F4 to leave the game. Another thing is that I can’t save any households that I’ve made I’m currently trying to save a house hold but it also froze and I can’t click to leave and I don’t want to get rid of my sims.
