Game Crashing

Post by bluebeariscool »

I have been experiencing the most annoying game crashes today. Is it just me? The first time it happened I reopened the game and it paused with a pop up telling me the game was updating (as it does when we install regular updates) it then crashed a further 4 times. Most frustratingly was that every time it crashed, all the sims became idle and and progress towards the tasks they were doing was lost GRRRR :x :x :x Not ideal when the vast majority are woodworking to complete the latest quest.
I've now set all the sims on their tasks again and im hoping that they stay that way.

I also wonder what was so important to prompt a random update?

This happened to me on my iPad as well. Uninstall/reinstall did nothing. Lucky I run an Android phone, and that's working fine right now, so hopefully it'll stay that way.

I'm not having problems with crashing today, thankfully! I've now finished the quest so that's a relief. The game is still very buggy though. Lots of sims wearing work clothes or no clothes and even one cooking in a snorkelling mask! Also this morning I had several sims collect 1lp for reaching levels in hobbies and these never added to my total. I lost about 10lp I reckon. Oh well, hopefully the bugs will sort themselves out soon.

It happened to me aswell.

Between yesterday and today, the game crashed around 6 times, 2 of them not letting me re-enter to the game and having to download an old version saved to the cloud (god knows why it didn't updated itself since 24 hours ago), making me lose all progress and effort, specially in the woodworking event :(

Oh dear :( Thankfully my game seems to have returned to normal now. I hope it's the same for anyone else affected.

My game has started this, but it seems to be after cuddling babies. Constantly crashing, sometimes making sims idle. Grrr. On android phone.

Mine has been doing this on pc using bluestacks android emulator, as well as my ipad. Not had it do this yet on iphone. I think the first time was about 2 weeks ago. I have not been able to determine any cause or anything to replicate it on purpose, but did file a report with Firemonkey. It stopped me from being able to build the bungalow on Romance Island :( I uninstalled and reinstalled both the game and the emulator, but no joy.

I am using a Samsung Android tablet & have been having the same problems. It began kicking me out about a week ago, but i'd get back in no problems. Then yesterday it kicked me out, and when I returned all my Sims were actually in front of their houses, like when they return from work. I had 10 Sims at one house working on the Woodworking, so it's been a pain in the butt. I had quite a few cooks also doing nothing. I had someone at the campgrounds doing the Survivalist hobby & he was in the parking lot & the 3 deer were also in the parking lot with the park guy. It was so strange. I guess I should submit a ticket. I haven't done that yet.

I've had no issues with this version.

My current version shows as 2.0.8.5638 last updated Feb 5, 2016.

My sims get knocked off task and left idle in front of their homes at mailbox. All of them. Had this happen over and over one day. I switched to my alt device (iOS) and sadly had the cloud tell me my game matched and no download was available. That sucketh majorly when you are doing a time-limited event or quest.
