I'm on PC and have encountered the same problem. Not sure if trying to follow you guys is giving me the headache or if its the Ice Cap I just finished. Currently have Origin run a game fix. If that doesn't do it, I'll kill the save and start new - lol BTW, there are no easels or craft tables to be unfinished in my save

if you have any mods pull out your whole mods folder to the desktop to test. there is more than one reason for this problem but outdated mods is still the biggest reasons, HTH

Only mod I have is the relationship extender. I'll give that a shot, thanks
That mod is causing issues. It's the mod I had in my game when I first started it up. I removed the mod but continued to have the problem for some reason.

Hello.
Perhaps deleting the cache files after removing the mod may help to clear any effects of it?
Hmmm. I been running that one for a looong time and the issue just started when I initiated a game save less than an hour ago. Took it out and turned off mods. No dice. Still trying other things before killing the save.

can you provide a link of the mod i dont know that one and ill test some
another thing to try is reset your files then add back just the saves files to test. sometimes a corrupted mod makes it necessary to reset files
how to reset your sims 4 files, pull your my documents/electronic arts/sim 4 folder to the desktop and run a test game if this fixes the problem you can move back old files to the new but test for problems:
files to move back (but again test each move)
saves - game save
options.ini - game settings
screenshots
custom music
mods folder
tray folder - all your saved builds and sims

thanks @rosemow and @ledfut360! ill add the mod to a test game and see if i can replicate the glitch and if so if i can figure out a work around. fingers crossed
This community is amazing. Everyone is so helpful...looking up tips and even trying to recreate the issue themselves to resolve it for others. I'm just really appreciative that there are such awesome simmers in our community, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it.
I'm having the same issue. I'm not able to go into my household and it keeps kicking me out to the World screen. I'm trying to figure out what might be causing my issue.

Hello keaddy117 .
Remove your mods and see if that helps. If it does help, then put your mods back into the mods folder one by one and testing to see which is the cause of the problem.
it took a few tries with my old save files to trigger the problem it occurred to me when i was testing each file i probably needed to have the mod installed prior to the patch in a save in order to make the problem reveal itself. a very old save finally was problematic
i should probably lay out what i did and what happen to confirm this is helpful
i can confirm this save could load without issue today since ive been bug testing for a bit and i used this particular save to check the relationship bug. i should note i havent played this save in many moons but its a copy of one of my older saves and for sure i used the decay mod in it at some point.
the decay mod i used today to trigger the issue was the second option http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=534925 the one that "will eliminate relationship decay entirely, for everyone."
this was the mod i used in the past and mostly likely with this old save file.
when i added the mod i was able to load the save file to the point of the neighbor screen when i clicked on the household instead of loading the lot like earlier the game loaded the screen with the neighborhood icons
i exited without saving the game twice to confirm this error would repeat.
my fix was to close game reset the sims 4 folder by pulling the whole folder to the desktop. i then made a copy of the save folder placed it in the new files loaded the game and i was able to load the lot.
and @SimChelle1982 couldnt agree more this is a very special community
@ceejay402 - and you're one of the people that makes it so special! It amazes me that people like you take so much time to help fix the game for others!
Earlier, I ended up deleting the household I was using and that fixed the issue for me. I don't know what was glitched about them, but once they were deleted, I was able to load lots again and play the game. Luckily, it was a brand new family and I had them saved to the gallery so there was very little lost.
@ceejay402 I am going to follow your advice in order to add the mod back into my game because it's so hard to build a lot of friendships without it!
Thanks a million! I wish we could still gift store items like we did with TS3. I'd love to gift you an item to say thank you.
@rosemow@crinrict Thank you both so much as well. You're all the best!
glad it may help and to be more clear i only added the mod to make the problem occur. part of the fix is to remove the mod and then reset the whole sims 4 folder by pulling it out and then add back just a copy of save files and test to see if this fixed the problem. if this does fix the problem dont add that mod but add back other files and CC this should be fine but do test each move.
@ledfut360 if you havent deleted the family or file perhaps you can update us if what i did helped you.
I also been faced with this problem. I just tried playing the game tonight since the new patch. I tried removing all mods/cc that I have, I tried deleting my current family, and I can't enter build mode from manage neighborhood. I always end up back to pick a neighborhood. I really don't want to delete more than I need to, but I'll keep trying.

I tried deleting the game save and ended up trashing the whole neighborhood. Good thing my OCD keeps me starting new games all the time - lol. On the bright side, I can get the "honorary simguru" achievement again.

@rosemow - Alright, my bad, I must of tried buy mode on a different household within my panic. I manged to fix the problem by deleting the empty easels in my house. What is strange was the family I was playing on was new, and I know for a fact they haven't used them at all. They were part of the house I got from the gallery. There was no paintings on the easels when I went to buy mode. They were total empty. So I attempted to delete them, and it worked. So the problem could also be connected to easels in general somehow? I'm kinda scared of easels being in houses now lol.
For the record, I was not using the mod for Relationship Decay.

Hello @ShootingWishes . You have removed your mods/cc but do you have the Relationship Decay mod? If you do, remove it again and also reset your computer like ceejay did in this post. The sims 4 folder may need to be reset after you took it out.

You may not have been able to enter because you evicted your family first?
If you can get into buy mode, see if there is an unfinished painting there.
If you still have problems, post on this link /send your save game.
