Sims 3 stuck “saving…” HELP?

Question

My game never had any problems no new CC all the sudden it’s stuck in this saving loop and it never saves (I check the saved files and it is never there)So I made a new game to see if the problem still persisted and it didn’t?? It saved fine. So I went back to my old game and it still won’t save. How did the file all the sudden become corrupt? I did so much with this game ð Also tried to do "save as" instead of save. No difference HELP!!!!

I am having the same exact problem, it started a few days ago. I click save and i get the save loop forever and it never saves it. I have tried the delete file and loaded it with the backup file which temporarily fixed the problem and it allowed me to save, but the problem was back the next day. I have tried to find the solution to the problem online but it seems that not a lot of people have the same problem so i can’t find a solution. You are not alone! I hope someone finds a way to fix it!PS: I don’t know if this is relevant to the problem but i have the expansions *Late Night *Seasons *World Adventures *Super Natural *Generations. And the problem started when it was snowing during winter time for the 1st time since i got Seasons.

Sounds like your save is broken. In my experience, it’s just something the game does because of bad coding. What you can do is go to Documents/Electronic Arts/Sims 3/Saves folder. There you should see some files. Look for your save file. It’ll look something like this: Name.sims3 With Name being whatever your save is called. Delete that. Now, there should be another file that looks like: Name.sims3.backup The name will be the same as the other file, edit the name of that file and delete the .backup part at the end. It will put your file back to it’s last save point, depending on how often you save, you might lose quite a bit, but it’s better then losing everything.
