UI and sim freeze
I don´t know what to do anymore. I started having this problem a little over a month ago. My sim started to freeze. She stood still and only "breathed". My UI also started to lag. It took a couple of seconds before the mouse registered that I was hoovering over something I could press. Also changing the speed took a couple seconds before actually registering. When going from speed 3 to 1, the time would jump back around 10 seconds. It would also jump forward 10 seconds when pressing 3. I tried to reset my sim, but this also took a couple of seconds before it actually did that, and then she would just stand in t-pose, and I still couldn´t make her do anything. Going to build buy, pressing esc, going to manage world etc. doesn´t help. If I go to manage worlds and go back in, the lag is gone for maybe 2-3 seconds before starting again. Everything else, like camera movement and when a menu pops up after a couple minutes after pressing, works fine. The world around, like trees, water etc. also behaves normal. It happens to all sims on my lot though. This only happened two times during gen 1. However, now I´m on gen 2 and it happens almost everyday. It first happened around 9am-12pm (it lasts almost always 3 in game hours), but then it changed. My sim was talking on the phone, and I had queued up for my sim to travel to space. The game froze and I pressed cancel on the "travel to space" action that was in his queue (it still doesn´t disappear until the game unfreeze) and after three in game hours, the freezing stopped. At that point I got a phonecall, a university pop up, a pop up from school all at the same time. I also got a notification saying that my sim came home from space intact, even though he hadn´t even been yet!! No Crash text och Last exception gets created when this happens, my cpu etc. are normal when it happens aswell. I removed all mods except for mccc, Better build buy, and my CC, and it seemed to have disappeared. I started doing the 50/50 method and thought I had figured it out, but then it happened again after maybe a week in game. I tried reparing the game aswell. I tried playing in a new save for maybe 1 in game week and nothing happened, but because it happens so sporatically it´s difficult to test it out. I dont know what to do about this, and I´m wondering if anyone know if there´s a certain mod that can affect the game like this, or any mods that are conflicting. Mods I use: mccc and woohoo, Basemental, RPO, Better build buy and TOOL, Littlemssam autostart washer and dryer, Sims4me call and visit tweak complete. Lumpinou´s view other sim family tree, dynamic teen life, and some utility mods for others to work. They are up to date and correctly installed. It started to happen before I installed RPO and Dynamic teen life, but added them just in case. Thanks to anyone that can help!!
A New Update Checker for The Sims 4
I recently finished a small project called Mod Update Checker, or MUC. The goal is to make update notifications easier for both players and mod creators. Mods that support MUC provide their current version, which is then compared locally with a central public registry. If an update is available, the player receives a clear notification with the creator’s official update page. The list of currently compatible mods can be viewed here: http://muc-registry.demeterio.cc/registry/ MUC does not search through the Mods folder, send a list of installed mods, or download updates on the player’s behalf. It is also important to mention that MUC is not useful on its own. Players only need to install it when a mod creator has specifically added MUC support. I would be happy to hear any feedback, particularly from modders who are curious about the integration process or would like to test it with one of their projects.

MDS Mod (Mass Delete Sims) Request
Hi i wonder if you could add an option called MDS in the pie menu for Mass Delete Sim so when you click on it it open the EA sim selector and it show all the sim in a terrain and when you select them and click ok the selected sims are deleted forever instead of having to delete them one by one with mccc which is boring i tried to do it myself with a template but i was not even able to open the game with my poor understanding of python and of course i dont want no credit for it as i give you the idea it is really up to you to accept or integrate it but i think that thousand of simmer will be glad to have this function imagine foing to a bar and be able to delete all the sim you dont like at once aha 😀

Are there any mods that let you change the keybindings for TS4?
I've played a lot of Rimworld so I'm used to things like Q and E being to rotate furniture, spacebar to pause, etc. I'd like to change the keybindings to something more intuitive for me. As I understand it, it's not possible to do this in vanilla TS4, so are there any mods out there that facilitate that? I can't use AutoHotKey as I'm actually playing using Wine on Linux (which works perfectly for me btw, had no problems including with installing mods and CC), but it does mean I don't have a Windows desktop on which I could use something like AHK. I suppose I could use Linux software to remap my keys for TS4 but that just sounds annoying compared to just installing a mod that adds a menu to the game.sims lot off grid despite not having the trait on
ive spent ages building a house and just started playing, but my house is stuck off the grid, i have no bills to pay and 100% dont have the trait selected, this is happening to every house in my world aswell as other worlds. i play on pc and do use mods/cc but ive never had this issue? i tried to move out the house and back in but i couldnt move back in and keep the lot so i cancelled it. i dont know what to do now i dont want to lose all my progress 😭😭😭
money cheats not working
My funds are not going up despite typing 'motherlode' etc. I have tried with and without testingcheats, and have uninstalled my mods. I do not know if it is a glitch in a residential rental, but i cannot add any money to my funds (even with UI cheats). Has anyone else had this issue?
Bed Autonomy
I've recently been watching YouTube videos of simmers playing Sims 2 and 3 and in one of them (I'm not sure which one.) sims don't make their beds when they get out of it. I really like this because for me it adds more realism to the game even if it's this small piece of realism. I have no idea how to mod and I've tried to learn but I'm not a fast learner so it just gets frustrating for me. Is there a mod out there that makes it so sims will not make the bed autonomously, and if not, is there a modder out there that's willing to make one?
Mod Recommendation Thread
Hey everybody, I just wanted to know what mods people use for the sim. Cause the sims is a game pretty much everyone plays differently, so I'm inviting you to share your mod recommendations. My Personal Recommendations are: MCCC by Deaderpool ReShade (not exactly a sims mod, but works with the sims) And nothing else really. So what's your favourite mod that you just can't live without?EA 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. Stardew Valley here I come.
