You should restart the game when it asks you to do that.
2. Create a save file
Start a new game on the computer on which you will host Sims 4. And in that game, create all the sims you would like to play. If you wish, you can use an existing save file as well. When done, hit save and move the Sims into a lot. Buy and build everything in advance. Pause the time, then hit save and exit the game. It is essential to pause the game before saving. You need to pause and save the game to ensure that both the host and your friend join a synced game file.
3. Host a game

Click on the network interfaces to select the network you would like your host your game. Click the start server button to create a room and start the server. Then the other player can join the chamber.
4. Joining a game as a client

When connected, a couple of network tests will automatically run to see if the system is set up correctly.
5. Sync the saved file
The only thing remaining before playing is to sync the save file. On the server, pc hit the sync Save button and select the game save you want to synchronize to the other players. Their status should change to synced once they have received the saved file.
