Hi everyone,
I have quite a bit of CC in my game and have had no problems until recently. Now when I create a sim with CC hair, particularly alpha hair it seems, the game will freeze when trying to save the the household to the gallery it will continue showing the loading icon which you cannot cancel out of. I have to force the game to close, but when I re-start the household is in the gallery.
Gameplay seems virtually unaffected - the hairs look fine in game and there are no glitches, but sometimes the Sim's potrait loads slowly or doesn't show at all. To get it to load I have to exit to the main menu and then load my save file again.
I have sorted through all my hairs some work fine, some cause the crash. More confusingly some hairs that cause the game to freeze at one point may be fine at another time. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the problem.
I've done the usual fixes - repaired the game through origin, taken out my Sims 4 folder and created a new one etc.
Would really appreciate some help on this!
Thank you!

Perhaps you could try going back to the cc sites that you downloaded the hair that has the issues from and see if updated versions of the cc hair have been released. Also you could let the cc hair creators know about the issues that you are experiencing using the cc hair in your game.
Try also lowering your graphics settings and see if that helps.
Make sure that your graphics card drivers are up to date.

Hello
You're welcome. It would be good to be in touch with the creators. Try also playing in laptop mode and see if that helps the issues.
