Looks like your game is in Walls Down View not actually a graphics glitch but on the Game UI over were your sims portrait panel is there is a small box looking thing click on it to change the wall view. Not near my game as my gaming PC needs a new hard drive so I can't give screenshot of exactly what you're looking for.

All I know is everytime It gets like that the game is stuck saving forever. like it happens after I save like at least 3 times. or run the game for at least 3 hours. it used to never do that I used to run the game for at least a long time. Im talking about the blurry sims.

It looks like compositor gave up which is usually indication that memory usage is too high and likely why saving doesn't work either. I'd recommend installing saver and using a short save interval to help data loss but there's an underlying issue obviously. Either the world you're playing in is too large/detailed or the world has data bloat, too many mods, CC, PC hardware below the requirements, etc. Safe to assume you are playing with ErrorTrap and Overwatch installed at least?

I get something similar every once in a while. Usually pausing the game for a short bit helps the game catch up with itself and the Sims don't look like Sims 1 characters then I save. Try going to edit town mode if possible to save if pausing and letting it sit for a bit before saving doesn't help.

I moved to a new town now my game saves I think it was just that my town was over populated.
