    My PS4 just downloaded and installed Snowy Escape. Now this wait is officially killing me.

    Do you live in the UK by any chance? You might get it a day early, as in 11 pm when it's midnight here. Or something similar for another region :)

    Then it makes sense, EPs always release midnight CET in our region (aka 11 pm GMT)

    Love this, hate that my game keeps crashing?? I don't use any mods and this is a really good PC so idk what's going on? Anyone else had this issue? Think I'm just gonna go play Valhalla for a bit, since this is actually quite annoying ....

    Yeah me too :( haven't heard this to be a widespread issue yet so I'm worried. I don't understand what's happening... Will make some food, then try again to get it to work.

    Yes figured that out about half an hour after I posted this. It sucks for the other people that they also have this issue but I'm actually happy about it. This way the fix will at least come faster 😅

    I played a few hours. Than the game crashed. I checked if there was still something saved. The last save was before I switched families. I lost 1 hour and 15 minutes. They have to fix this first. Because I don't like wasting my time and losing progress in my game. I guess I'm going to do something else than playing the sims for a while. Until they fix this.

    Atleast they know about it and are looking into a fix

    This link may help those of you who are having any type of issue. @dsef and @SimTrippy and @Hallie22 .. Plus, deleting your cache files and other files before you start the game is very important. Here is the link on how to do it which may help:

    https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/delete-cache-files/

    Sometimes even just removing your mods folder, repairing the game, going into the game, then leaving the game without saving, adding back your mods folder will also do the trick. But, one of the most important things I always do before playing the game which is listed on that link above is delete specific things.

    Hope that helps. :smiley:

    Twenty four more hours to go!

    The pagoda style home I designed is now ready to go. I also updated my Sim. Now I just need to see what new items are in CAS and Build/Buy so I can put the final touches on everything and start a new game.

    Yup did all of that ;) I wasn't using any mods, repaired the game, removed cache, reset the game entirely, updated Windows, clicked me too on the bug report on Answers HQ, disabled my antivirus, tried save as, changed the sharing permissions, and pretty much any other fix that was suggested anywhere. Still crashes. It's not my PC or what I did or didn't do, it's clearly an issue with the patch. Not mad, just hope they fix it soon! Will be sharing my saves with them after work tonight.

    I just pre-ordered! Man, I can't wait to do some snowboarding! The last time I went snowboarding was back in 2008, and the gif below kinda shows what happened to me. I didn't see any rocks because they were hidden under a large lump of snow. I wanted to do a jump off of that lump of snow, but sadly the rocks that I didn't see stalled my board and I fumbled and instead of landing in the snow like this gif, I ended up landing and rolling on other rocks that I didn't see. It hurt, lol! I was frustrated and couldn't keep my focus and shortly after hitting the rocks, I lost my balance and fell getting a bunch of cold snow inside of my jacket, inside of my gloves, and all over my face. Needless to say, I wasn't having a good time anymore after all of that, lol!

    ouch @rjsim

    Your gif reminds me of why I only ever tried snowboarding once and went immediately back to skiing which was safer (for me anyway-)
