So, it seems like I've accidentally softlocked myself out of the game.
I maxed out Callum as a romance option the day after he got added, before JC limited his level to 6. As a result, I got him to level 9. However, now that they've limited him to 6, whenever I try and play, I inevitably hit a crash because my level is a value that isn't valid.
This crash happens if I try to go to any other location then the one I'm already in, save the game (automatically or manually), open up the friendship menu, or do basically almost anything that would load up fresh assets.
I don't even think this is an issue caused by playing hacked, theoretically a vanilla player could have spent coins to grind him up to that level in time to encounter the same issue, but obviously they would be able to contact JC to resolve the matter.
Regardless, I've tried getting around it by playing a vanilla copy on another device and I get the exact same error.
So at this point, my only option (besides waiting for the game to be updated so that my level with Callum is valid) is asking here for help. Does anyone know if there's any way for me to fix this? Like is it at all possible to use GG or some other method to alter my level value to something it'll accept? Or really, any ideas for fixing this? I'd really appreciate any help people can offer.
(Pics attached of the error. The friendship menu gets really buggy, I think it's trying to show every possible asset at once. Also, it's the only case where the error complains about a value of 8 rather then a value of 7)
