Hey everyone. I just downloaded 160 files of new cc. All are package files. I put them in the same file I always do, with all my older cc. When I went to play, the new cc does not show up. The cc is from different creators (YouTube and patreon mostly). I tried to repair the game and clear the EA cache. I also moved my mods folder to my desktop and then add it back to the proper folder spot. I even moved some cc in groups to see if it would appear in the game this way. Nothing has worked. Any ideas on how to fix this? I downloaded cc just a few days ago and it worked. So I’m unsure what the issue is. Thank you!17150781f5c0383415 hours agoNew Rookie24Views0likes0Commentsde4ee14f:29f00e76:00000000:00000000
Hi. Whenever I try to load my Sims game, through both Steam and the EA app, it pops up with that error I know it has something to do with my CAS and BuildBuy folders because when I take them out it opens, but when I tried to go through them with the 50/50 method it still didn’t load I’ve tried making new folders but it still won’t Their names are “!Create a Sim CC” and “!BuildBuy CC” if that has something to do with it22Views0likes1CommentMy mods don't work even when they are up to date.
Hello guys, Lately i have a issue that my mods don't work. I updated all my mods and it wouldn't work, and i don't know if it is the issue off my PC or the game version. But i saw other sims creators with mods on the same time that work. I do not have any other folders in my mod folder. Can any of u help with my issue?Sjakie_Jacques19 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer107Views0likes5CommentsOnly a few batch (Picked by T24) will load in.
Only a few batch (Picked by T24) will load in. Ive been Having a Problem with the TS4 As a whole. Ive deleted the EA and sims 4 4 days ago due to storage and it literally slowing and lagging my other big games like Roblox, genshin ect and Also deleted the EA Folder after resolving the issue and finding Out why my pc was so slow and laggy i decided to redownload the EA app and downloaded the sims 4 again which took 4 days. (SIGH) but finally it downloaded which i was excited about but soon Only a specific batch out of my Over 2k+ mods (Including cc, mods, scripts etc) was in the game, I thought maybe its because i restored (from my bin) the EA File (which included TS4) Before TS4 actually downloaded , TS4 wont allow me to try any other method (Like the 50/50 or the Batch method) As No other Mods, cc or scripts will load in the CC Menu except the specific batch, its been 2 hours of me Trying to Restart the sims but nothing has worked. Even deleting and restoring the EA Folder. (Im in SHAMBLES.) repairing did nothing. ion uninstall and wait another 4 days. </318Views0likes0CommentsGallery Poses Mod
Alright so I went around just downloading some gallery poses and it has not worked out. I have this one specific pose that I do not remember downloading and cannot even find in my mods folder. I've looked and changed my viewing to "date modified" to see what has been recently added but I cannot find it. Does anyone recognize this this pose? I've searched "pose" in my mods folder and have deleted all pose related mods/cc.mizzymiz23 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer12Views0likes0CommentsWeird Graphics Glitch?
For some reason when I go into build mode, the items are like this and it's doing a weird glitch when I mouse over things. I can still see what the names of the items are like computers or chairs, but it looks odd in general. It's never done this before and I don't know how to fix it. I've tried updating my drivers at least.cmdrgn2 days agoRising Newcomer49Views0likes2CommentsBusiness and hobbies will not show in game

The only thing that has showed up is the notification that my sims is pekish and should try the new candy maker... This is completely crazy! Any one else?SolvedChristiane902 days agoSeasoned Newcomer1.5KViews10likes13CommentsHelp!!! Sims 4 won’t open on Mac with mods/cc
Yesterday I sat down at my computer after 2 months of not playing and updated the sims. I refreshed my outdated mods and pressed play but it didn’t open. I looked this up and it said it was probably due to broken or incorrectly installed mods or cc. I went to mod hound and it said that nothing was incorrect or outdated. Everything was fine! Of course mod hound doesn’t work on cc but I didn’t think much of it. So basically when I have my mods folder in, the game literally refuses to open and just stays on my desktop until I after like 15 minutes it finally gives me an error notification saying that it cannot open due to broken or needed data files or something. Then, when I take out the mods folder it opens and runs like normal. I’ve tried everything from making a whole new sims 4 folder to restarting my computer to repairing sims 4 in the ea app to deleting the localthumbcache file. I’ve been at this for hours now and I’m at a loss though I’m certain it’s a mod/cc problem. I’ve been playing for 3 years now and this has never happened before!SolvedPolarBear11112 days agoSeasoned Newcomer63Views0likes2CommentsMissing CC
Since February I have noticed that a lot of my CC is just randomly missing from my folder. I use Sims4MM to keep my folders updated and clean. Sometimes I download complete sets folders, where some items are then deleted, which I would never intentionally do. For example, earlier in March I downloaded Sixam's Laundromat set, and after a few weeks, I went to build with the items and the only item missing/deleted was the coin machine. I do go through every item in the folders when I download them together, and I specifically remember being excited to find the coin machine on the set for a more realistic laundromat gameplay, so I would not delete it intentionally. I had to redownload the whole thing and go through the list one by one until I got to the missing item and S4MM said it was already in my folder, but I couldn't find it either on the game or on S4MM when I typed it in or looked up the set, etc. I only empty my trash bin on my Mac after a month, just in case I regret deleting an item from the game and that way I can still get it back. So after I started to notice this issue, I painfully looked at the bin, item by item, and those missing items were not there, or on my Mac finder, SM44, in game, CC folder, or anything in between. I also posted on a different forum on here about items (cc and game base/ packs) getting deleted after several different save versions or reloads of the lot. Not sure if both issues are connected, or if they even have anything to do with the For Rent bugs, but I figured I'd mention it here in case anyone has found a correlation between them. At this point I have been avoiding playing, because I'm the type of player that mostly builds, so after spending weeks carefully selecting items and curating the perfect rooms and builds, items start to disappear and I can't keep up with the changes to remember what was placed where originally. Please please please let me know if you can help! Thank you!Camillablluuee2 days agoRising Rookie26Views0likes0CommentsCas Glitch: Library Sims Glitching
I didn't really know what to title this but, in cas when using sims I saved in my library, (They are from a different save file then the one I'm currently using) It won't let me change their names if there are multiple sims in household. The name bar shows up as _______(/) (as seen in picture). When I do change the name of one sim, it still shows as _______(/) and copies to the second sim. (hopfully this makes sense, im bad at explaining things.) Also, I did manage to get one sim into a home by adding her separately, but when I try to edit household to add the other two sims, (Using cas.fulleditmode and mccc) Cas takes FOREVER to load. Yes, I have mods and cc. But, the sim I made from scratch is perfectly fine and is having 0 problems, It's only the ones from my library that are giving me trouble. I would really hate to make these sims again, because I love how they look and for some reason when I try to recreate a sim I can never get them to look how they previously did. So, I'd like to avoid that if I can!19Views0likes0Commentsmods messing with phone
this whole thing started on the 28th, I couldn't open the phone when I clicked on it, and I thought I had deleted the mods messing with it and I even got a new sims 4 folder to ensure this wasn't my mods (obviously I was wrong) ... (gameplay was working fine without the mods) anyways when I placed all my mods into the new mods folder the exact SAME THING HAPPENED, I'm using better expectations mod to help me with this issue but so far, no luck at all if I can send my mods folder over to someone for help I would greatly appreciate it.13Views0likes0CommentsBroken and Updated Mods and CC: 1.113, Feb. 25, 2025 Game Update

Is there any way to make my sims age then stop aging at a certain age and basically have them immortal? I'm using the MCC and set it to "All sims are Immortal." But this feature doesn't age up babies and infants unless you manually age them up using birthday cakes. I want one where they can age up til young adults, and once they turn into a young adult, they're officially immortal.

Just as the title says, I changed nothing except, I updated a mod, removed a few files that looked sus, and I tried turning on and off my CC to see if I could get it to work, I've made sure all my moods and CC are up to date and the only one I thought could be the problem has been removed and it's still not functioning. For clarification, it shows my CC is there and loaded on the loading screen, just not in game. I'd like if I didn't have to start from zero and redo my CC, but if that's what it takes I'll try it. Thank you for any input.54Views0likes1Comment
