SLOTS/HEIGHT RANGE
(UnboundLocalError: local variable 'height_range' referenced before assignment) Traceback (most recent call last): File "T:\InGame\Gameplay\Scripts\Server\scheduling.py", line 231, in simulate File "T:\InGame\Gameplay\Scripts\Server\elements.py", line 376, in _run My sims can't do anything (shower, bathe, cook, pick up babies, sleep, read, watch tv, feed babies, feed themselves). They can't do ANYTHING if my sim tries to pick up her baby it bugs out and she drops the baby and same thing for cooking or showering it completely bugs out. I've tried the mod manager, mod conflict detector, the mod tray importer, TS4 package conflict detector. Better exceptions and Mc Command center are throwing the bad mods out because they can't function until I remove the mod. I've tried 50/50 method. Can someone please point me in the right direction AND/OR tell me exact mod please. I've linked the last exception below!TO344255 minutes agoSeasoned Newcomer48Views1like2Comments[V] Game is cloning existing sims as Vampires
You know how the game will generate new sims for you and put them in "Manage Households -> Other Households" ? For the a long time now, it's been generating households with the same name as households that I had previously deleted, either with completely different sims in them or with clones of a few of the sims from those deleted household. For example - Original Jones family (Bob, Jane, Nancy, Paul) was deleted. A household called Jones appears in "Other Households" either just with Bob in it or with one or more sims who are completely unrelated to the Jones family). I've just been deleting them because I didn't want them in my game. Now, for the past couple of weeks, the game generates a copy of one sim from a household that I am currently playing, in their own new household. And that cloned sim is a vampire. (It might help to know that I play rotationally.) Example - in my game Geoffrey and Nancy Landgraab got divorced and Geoffrey married Mila Munch. Mila changed her name to Mila Landgraab. A couple sim days later, I'm playing the Bailey-Moon household and Mila *Munch* (she's showing up with her old name) shows up at the door late at night. I'm suspicious so we don't answer. Then she starts with the vampire animations and turns into a bat. Why is this happening? How can I stop it? The only mod I use is MCCC and it happens with or without it.

Hi, I have about 18000 files with mods and I don't use them all while playing. How can I effectively clean up and remove the mods I don't use? Do you have any tips on how to find the mods I don't want and then remove them? I'm thinkin about just removing all of them and start over but it seems lite a hassle.Solved2fb008551c017b2718 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer94Views0likes4CommentsCan't follow sims to work with Turbo Careers
Hi. I use the Turbo Careers mod, created lots for each playable occupation, but the sims aren't receiving alerts to follow them at work.

Hi All, Since the tray importer does not work for replacing the default gallery images for our creations, what is the alternative? For me, when I change out the default with a custom image for the gallery with S4TI, my townie gets corrupted and I have to delete them permanently (thankfully I had a backup). I assume that is the issue others are experiencing, and most forums just state it isn't working, but provide no alternative or other details. However, I still see custom images on the Gallery all the time. So, there must be an alternative right? Does anybody know? Every Google search just redirects me back to S4TI (thanks AI). Thanks, SS31Views0likes0CommentsSims unable to play video game consoles since last update (PC)
I have tried different households, I have changed tvs, I have replaced the game console. I have closed and restarted multiple times. I have tried repairing the game.

Hello! earlier today I downloaded some new mods. when I played, I wasn't able to right click my mod to see the other pie menu. I removed the newer mods I added and nothing changed, so I removed the entire mods folder onto my desktop, and there still wasn't a difference. I repaired the app as well. I moved the sims 4 folder out of the EA folder and onto my desktop. The issue was still not resolved when creating an entire new game and now I don't know if it will ever be fixed and if I will ever get my worlds back :(Vickyyyy122 days agoSeasoned Newcomer64Views0likes2CommentsSims needs not showing.

After the update, game isn't working right. It worked perfectly for 2 days with the Xpack download. After, the update, my UI cheat extension doesn't work. FYI, it is the only mod i have in it. I refuse to play without it, just isn't for me otherwise. If anyone uses it and it suddenly starts working for you please let me know, plus let me know if you are also having the same issue. Thank you.52Views0likes3CommentsDeleted my cache files and now all of my sims with cc are black.
Hi there, I followed the instructions exactly to delete the cache files from my game as it’s been really glitchy (with and without mods) anyways once I went back to my game after deleting the cache my script mods don’t appear at start up even though everything in the settings is checked on. Consequently it’s not recognizing my mods folder now and every sim is black. can someone please help I’ve spent hours troubleshooting and nothing is bringing them back.bstephensonn3 days agoSeasoned Newcomer60Views0likes1Commentmy cc all reset help

Hi! So ever since the new update, I've had lots of trouble with my mods. I completely removed them and made a whole new folder to ensure that each one would be updated. Now here's the thing- all of my cc is working (clothes, hair, furniture, etc) but none of my mods are working (mccc command centre, better exceptions, pregnancy overhaul etc). Also, there are question marks covering any roofs that I build in the game, even when I don't have any mods/cc. Does anyone know why these might be issues? For clarification they are all showing up in the main menu when I enter the game. I've never had an issue with this before but I think I'm going to try completing the nature quests as that seemed to solve some bugs for people. Any ideas are appreciated please!
