I've used mods forever. Recently, my game would launch, and I did all the troubleshooting I would normally do, realized that it launched fine as long as I had no mods. I did do the 50/50 method, it's every single mod, won't launch if there is anything in the mods folder. I redownloaded them just in case they needed an update, but still won't launch. Please help, I miss my Sims :( I'm on a MacBook Air, but that's never been an issue before Thanks to anyone who knows what to doKkait90803 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer21Views0likes1Commentsims just won’t use any bathroom items

Hi all, Ever since the latest patch, i can't seem to open my small business without triggering a last exception report saying that my game will behave in unpredictably if i continue to play. I played through once and my game crashed. The only mod i have currently is MC command centre + woohoo and better exceptions but i have quite alot of CC. I'm not sure whether it is related. But ever since the last patch, customers won't stay at the business either. They come in and then walk straight back out. My small business is a cat cafe, and before the patch, sims would stay longer to play with the cats but this no longer happens. This is the business that crashes the longer i played. So yesterday I created a new business, a petting zoo, to play but the same issue seems to be cropped up when I open for business. I'm playing on a Windows laptop. I have tried the half half method where I delete half the CC to try to detect the problem CC, but it seems like every time i start the game anew, the problem gets tripped again, and i cant tell which CC it is. I have CC installed manually and through TSR CC manager. I have since disabled all the CC in TSR CC manager, BUT they still show up in game. I'm wondering if the issue is here, and if so, how can I get rid of CC from TSR CC manager when they dont even show up on the app anymore. Please help!pupkwt10 hours agoSeasoned Novice28Views0likes2CommentsCan't place roof/ceiling disappears
Hey everyone! I was building a house in TS4 and was able to place roofs with no issues. But when I moved a portion of the house (a room) and placed it far from the main build it won't let me place a roof. It will stay on the floor even though there's a grid. I tried adding a premade room from the gallery or just building a basic square but neither worked. When I zoom in close the ceiling actually disappears and I have also tried: - "remove ceiling" and "build ceiling" again - save room to gallery and place it again - save lot, bulldoze and place again - flatten lot. In summary... any room placed on the lot not attached to main house will not allow roofing and the ceiling disappears. Any help will be really appreciated! 🙂SolvedUnderlandDgtl11 hours agoSeasoned Traveler13KViews0likes6CommentsMy Downloaded Sims game keeps saying it isn’t downloaded
I play the sims all the time and every time I get on the EA app my Sims game keeps saying “download” even though I already had it downloaded because I just played it! And all my save files are in the “saves” folder via Sims 4 folder via electronic arts. I restarted the app, cleared the cache, uninstalled the app than reinstalled it. I tried and I tried different methods, and I know if I pressed “download” all of my data would be deleted just like it did the last time! please help me 😭avocado_naii14 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer69Views1like5CommentsJungle Adventure looks like broken CC
The jungle adventure add-on looks like broken cc in the build/buy menu. I've tried the "repair" button on the EA app and uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing works. It's been like this since I got the pack months ago and no other pack I've gotten before or after this has had this issue.

Good day everyone, i’ve been having this issue since i’ve started playing the game again, since April. Before that i haven’t played since maybe December. I have all the packs as well as lots of Custom Content. I’ve updated them (not all but at least all script mods). The issue is my game refuses to save. It stays on the Save screen and never comes off. Once this week, I waited two whole hours for it to save because I did not want to lose my progress, but unfortunately I had to force exit. Im not sure what the issue is or if anyone else is having this issue. I’ve restarted my pc, the Ea app, as well as I’ve repaired the game. I don’t know what else to do?48Views0likes3CommentsTraits not working
Hello everyone if someone could please help me I wouldn't greatly appreciate it. I know that this conversation has started many times but I'm at a loss, I currently have no mods in my game as I accidentally deleted the folder but thankfully have a backup from a few months before. Please and thank you20Views0likes0CommentsMy interactive mods are not working in game
When i start up my game and try to make my sims interact with an object from a mod i'm unable to even click the object. I had downloaded the "teleport any sim" mod and it worked perfectly fine for the first few days, then suddenly when i tried clicking the teleporter, nothing happened. I tried multiple times to make it pop up i've shut down my computer, restarted it, repaired my game, removed mods and it still doesn't work. I can't remove every mod from there because then i wouldn't be able to fix the issue i'm having since it just wont let me click on the objects. i've also downloaded "extreme violence" and "life tragedies" and when i click my sim none of the options that once were there pops up. I don't know what i can do so please help me out.gronberg0824 hours agoRising Newcomer28Views0likes0CommentsBroken and Updated Mods and CC: 1.113, Feb. 25, 2025 Game Update

This has been going on for at least a few weeks now but anytime I try to open the game through the EA app, nothing happens. I get the little icon that shows up at the bottom on the screen saying it's running, but there's nothing actually happening. I've tried repairing, uninstalling and reinstalling, updating my computer, restarting it a few times, and nothing seems to work. I've tried launching the game and letting it sit for a while in hopes it would launch eventually and it doesn't. Running out of ideas and need suggestions..SpringRhyme2 days agoNew Novice82Views0likes5CommentsNew Mod Update

I recently transferred my Sims data to my new computer and have been trying to get things set up. I didn't transfer any CC or the MCC, just the game and the saved games I had on my other computer. I downloaded MC Command center, but no other CC. When I go to enter CAS, I am able to make changes, but when I hit the check to exit out of it, my games crashes. I have tried clearing my cashes and deleting and redownloading MCC. I'm not really sure what to do past this? Also, it frequently has a "lastexception" popup when I open the game, I'm not sure how to prevent that from happening every time?11Views0likes0Comments[Resolved] CC causing game to freeze while small business is open
Basically I had this happen whenever I open my small business (starts happening at the 4-hour mark of the small business opening): Sims stay frozen where they are Time frozen Pause & fast-forward doesn't work Cannot click objects/sims Can still enter build/buy Clicking manage worlds leads to loading screen that takes forever (no point waiting because at that point it's not going to load) Click save or save and exit leads to saving screen that takes forever (again, no point waiting) Only solution is to force quit and lose progress I did the 50/50 method, and turns out it was a cc sink that I had placed in the small business' bathroom. Once I removed it, it worked fine!nutmegprime2 days agoSeasoned Newcomer13Views0likes0CommentsGame not pausing or forwarding
Hello, I updated Sims 4 to the recent patch and downloaded the 2 most recent expansions. When I am in live mode, after about 15 seconds, when I attempt to pause the game my sims continue to move around. When I try to fast forward, the game remains at normal speed. After this occurs, I cannot click on Sims and the game freezes upon exit. I have deleted all of my mods and was only using base game and this still occurred. I also repaired the game, and the problem did not fix itself.2KViews0likes6Commentssim can't interact with other sims
My sim is unable to interact with sims or pet, she is only able to interact with objects. I'm not sure how to fix this, I used the BE mod to have it find the broken mod but it didn't work and didn't manage to find anything. Anyone know what mod this could be causing?31Views0likes1CommentCorrupted save file
Not sure if its a trait or something added to the tray but even tested vanilla (with only mccc) it still gave me an exception when i go to manage employee tasks. i added a mod or something to my tray a few weeks ago, for more employees, more logos and more business activities. I also added a new household but its a conflict somewhere and i cant find it, i think its in my tray because ive combed through mods. My save file is corrupted, ive had someone in another forum try checking for a game bug but we realized it was the save file. is there a way for someone to help me delete the last thing that caused the issue or find the issue and help me remove it from the tray? The zip file crashes when you try to access it so im not sure what to do.
