New TS4 Patch Breaking Saves?

Post by 108sims »

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I wanted to give everyone that plays TS4 a little heads up that the patch today has broken some peoples saves. I would recommend turning off automatic updates or waiting to play until it's fixed.

It seems like it's being worked on. Here's the Twitter thread I saw. I just don't want anyone to lose any saves!

Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

Thanks for the head's up! I'm worried I tanked my saves by not taking them out before updating (haven't opened any) but I'm also too scared to figure it out.

I feel the same way. I always take my mods out, but I never really thought about taking my saves out too. Here's hoping yours are okay! I was really hoping I'd see some kind of update on this whole situation by today, but maybe they need another couple of days to figure things out?

I did a back-up of my saves folder (as usual), and mine seem to be working okay post-patch! As long as you got a copy of your saves backed up elsewhere, you should be fine to at least load them up in-game to see if they work. :)

Awesome! That's really good to know since I hadn't heard anything since yesterday. I'll be sure to back them up, and then test my saves out. Fingers crossed!

I can also confirm, I opened up each of my save yesterday and while a couple took a little longer than usual they all opened up fine, and everything seemed to be in the right places with the right people. I played for quite a while on one of the saves last night and had no problems. All I have in right now is MCCC, and they do have an update hotfix out today, but otherwise, all is good for me. Just to give you all a little more hope. :D

That does give me a bit more hope because I was mainly seeing reports of broken saves from those who played with script mods, and since MCCC is the only one I have of those I wasn't too sure how my saves would fair.

Thank you so much for the info Trip! I’m so glad they’ve fixed it. Now I feel safe playing my game knowing it’s fixed!
