Weird NPC Situation Goopy / Goopella GilScarbo invasion!
So I use mods, but I don't know which one would cause this. I've also never seen this issue with any other player, and while it doesn't disturb my gameplay at all it is so weird. Generated townies will often show up as normal with random, nonsensical names. However, the vast majority of them are Goopy (M) and Goopella Gilscarbo. I tried to look up the issue, and it turns out the name belongs to a Sims 2 character who, I guess, became something of a meme. But that doesn't explain why my game is defaulting to that name for most NPCs who aren't tied directly to a premade household. There's no way for me to turn off auto-generated sims to test whether this is related to an in-game issue or if it's pulling from the gallery, which I know the game can sort of do with the Mc Command Center. I plan at some point to do the 50/50 method, but I've been so busy with school I haven't had the energy to do that, and I figured I'd ask and see if anyone else knew about this happening to them. It just seems like nobody else has reported an issue like this.13Views0likes0CommentsMissing library
I have been an advent sims gamer for 20+ years and even with all the backlash, I’ve still stayed loyal. That ended today. I’ve been trying to play in offline mode because of all these bugs the newest update created (mods and no mods alike) until Monday, I was forced to update in order to play the game I paid for… now I at first was impressed by the updates and fixes, until upon discovery I noticed all of my library saved content that included CC was gone. I attempted to remove my mods and cc folder to at least see if it would generate again and nope. Nothing. I even started with a fresh sims 4 folder. Still nothing. I paid for a functioning library. Please provide the service I paid for.anajoycl9816 hours agoSeasoned Novice46Views0likes0CommentsCLICK ON THE WORLD AND CHARCTER AND TAKES ME BACK TO THE WORLDS MENU

I have been debugging for hours and managed to remove some “corrupted” save files and old mods. So I’m in the process of reintroducing everything and when adding back my CC, it sometimes launches & sometimes doesn’t, WITH NOTHING CHANGING. I have deleted the localtumb thingy multiple times, enabled & disabled mods (in game). I don’t understand why it sometimes launches? I just want to add all my CC & mods back (I have been doing this for 4+ hours). I’m also not even sure if those mod & save files were corrupted, as apparently my sims has a mind of its own when it does & doesn’t want to launch.ArchAngel_0611 day agoSeasoned Newcomer14Views0likes0CommentsMy game will sometimes launch & sometimes not with the same CC

I've wanted to try this mod for so long but the new update has made it incompatible and the creator is no longer active :( I have the Better Exceptions report showing what the problem is, if any modders know how to make it work again please let me know. I don't know a single thing about modding so help would be appreciated.27Views0likes1CommentMy game freezes after giving birth/naming offspring
My sim was finally living the good life. High in her career, earning that bread and had been engaged. Close to solving the strangerville mystery she got abducted by aliens and was expecting Twins. She went into labour and at the hospital I named the twins and as I closed off the naming tab the game froze I waited for 5 minutes and nothing only her and the doctor appeared to be frozen while her fiance was stuck in a support loop. Everyone else in the hospital was also in a loop and I could not click anywhere only the three dots at the top to exit the game. I had saved when she went into labour so I thought nothing of it. Closed out, repaired the game, deleted cache and went back in. I got the same issue. 2nd try I took out pandasama child birth mod. Same issue I took out mcc and rpo same issue I even tried sending alone to hospital and the same thing I dont want to start the save all over again.💔8tf6zanrione2 days agoRising Newcomer24Views0likes1CommentEnabling Script Mods Breaks my Game
Recently, I thought about trying out script mods for the first time, so I downloaded 4 to test them out. I put them in mods folder. However, when I went to the options menu and enabled "script mods", my game started having issues: when I enter my saves, the game is stuck in worlds select mode and won't let me enter any lot, plus the weird glitchy blue box and other stuff in the left corner of my screen (see images). At first I thought I downloaded a broken script mod so I removed all script mods from the mods folder, yet still, same problem remained. The problem only stopped after I turned off the "script mods" option in the settings of the game. For the record, I do use cc (CAS and furniture), but I've never had issues with them and the game launches and works normally with them, this only happened when I enabled the script mods option, and goes away when I disable it. could the problem be in the cc, but they only break when script mods are enabled? I really want to use script mods, does anyone know how to solve this or the cause of the problem?Solvedkumaroki3 days agoSeasoned Novice129Views0likes4CommentsSims 4 Won't Load
I am trying to play Sims 4. I was playing it earlier today but exited out so it could update with the new packs I had purchased. Now, it won't go past the green spinning Plum-bomb after I click "Resume Game." If I open it through "Load Game," it takes me to the worlds screen but when I select a household, it stays on the green spinning Plum-bomb still. I have removed all my mods, uninstalled the EA app and reinstalled it, repaired the game many times, shut down and restarted my computer several times (Windows PC laptop) and now am reinstalling the game itself. Could it be one of the packs I purchased causing it to not work? It's beyond frustrating and I'm at a loss of what to do. 😭 I will update when it is finished installing if it is still not loading; I just wanted to post to try to find possible solutions while I wait forever for it to install.k_kretch19933 days agoSeasoned Rookie90Views0likes4CommentsSims excessively flirt with others (Patch 1.122.2.18)
I'm still experiencing an issue where Sims flirt with each other constantly, regardless of their relationship status. Even when Sims are already in commited relationships they will: autonomously flirt with other Sims accept or initiate romantic interactions with almost everyone And on top of that, there's also a jealousy issue: if another Sim flirts with my Sim's parnter, the partner gets jealous this happens even when the interaction is rejected This just kinda ruins my game because it completely breaks my relationship because Sims get upset over things they didn't even participate in. I'm aware there was already a report about this ("Sims excessively flirt with others") and it's supposed to be fixed. But in my game nothing has changed - the issue is still fully present.

Every time I try to change my Sims' clothes, I get to the page but nothing. All there is is the person and nothing else. I cannot change anything. The only way I can get off of it is to do an task manager shut down. I have restarted the game, even reloaded the entire game. (which caused me to lose all of my saved games) Is there anything I can do to fix this issue?STS0104 days agoSeasoned Newcomer136Views0likes7CommentsPink underwear/bra on male sim

Basically, after this new update my mods are working again and when I click on sims it goes through the opening animation and to the loading screen then completely goes back to my home screen. It goes back to the EA app and gives me an error saying, "An error on our end has caused the game not to run, try again later." (paraphrasing) there was a broken mod but my game would run anyway, and I've tried to remove every mod and run it, and it still does the same thing. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall and same problem. Even tried doing the same to the Ea app and when I reinstalled same message. I'm on pc if that matters, any help is very appreciated!Solved115Views0likes3CommentsScript mods don't work
Please help me. I don't have any script mods working at all. When I start the game, there aren't any in the window at all. And this is only with script mods, mods for the clothes and furniture work. What I did: I updated each mod to the latest version and reinstalled, reinstalled the game, checked the options in sims for additional content and script mods, checked for conflicting mods, checked the game files and the mods folder. I tried to do any script mode in empty game but it still doesn't work93Views0likes2CommentsEA this has gotten out of hand.
I have barely been an owner/player of the sims for a year and i’m already considering being done with the Sims 4. Ever since the update to add marketplace my game will run FINE for one day MAX then all of sudden I have to delete CC for THREE DAYS STRAIGHT NOT EVEN JOKING before I can barely get a days worth of gameplay in. ITS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING HOW MUCH OF MY MONEY I HAVE SPENT ON A UNPLAYABLE GAME. If you didn’t want people to add CC/MODS how about you make your base game not so LACKLUSTER and put in a little EFFORT. Good riddance EA after this I realized I am officially done.

I have been having this issue for awhile with my single sims, but I had just assumed it was a bug with the bed. Basically what happens is that when I have a sims couple, and I have them both go to bed, one will be able to sleep, and the other one will “get in bed,” not get under the sheets, and then immediately exit out the bed a few seconds later. I have tried batch fixing my cc, and I went and made sure I didn’t have the cuddle mod in my game. There isn’t any music playing, no objects in the way, and my sims couple has a maxed out friendship and romance bar. I have deleted my cc bed and tried a maxis bed and the same thing happens. Also, my cuddle interaction won’t work. I assume it’s because of the same reason my sims can’t sleep together. When I initiate the cuddle reaction, they act like they can’t access the bed. I’m not sure what else to do to fix this interaction. Pls help!BrileyMA6 days agoRising Newcomer67Views0likes1Comment
