My sims are getting stuck trying to take a picture with the cell phone, and I can take them a couple of times then they just get stuck, any ideas how to fix this?

Like does it freeze when you're in the middle of taking a photo? Like when you get that thing where you can adjust the camera view and adjust filters.. Or does it freeze before you get that far?

Hello.
Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.
If it continues to happen, try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Start a new game and test to see if the photo issue has been fixed. Exit the game and then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders, testing after replacing each one to make sure the game is working okay.
Was the photo problem with the sims freezing still there when you started the new game file after resetting the sims 4 folder, before adding back the saves and mods etc folders ? If it wasn't there then, then one of your save files could be causing problems.
Also, sometimes having a large amount of items in the sims inventories and household inventory can cause issues. Perhaps remove some of the items from the inventories and see if that helps.
I deleted some saves and took all things out of the inventory but I have not tried to take a photo yet lol will try this afternoon, have to go to boring adult things.
I’m having the same issue, however it’s with the ps4 version. I haven’t saved recently and some pretty major things happened, and so I can’t close the application without losing everything. Nothing is working, besides the PS button and the thumb sticks.
