Better Ladders Mod
Recently (past month) the game had been crashing to world management screen when entering live mode and I wasn't able to figure it out for a long time. Found out when trying to place a ladder then use it that it was the Better Ladders Mod.SolvedBryzlson5 days agoSeasoned Newcomer28Views0likes1Comment
WCIF Ad Blocker Mod
Is there such a mod to block the in-game ads which pop up at the top right-hand corner (with the evil shopping trolley) urging us to buy from the oncoming sale, buy the packs we are missing, and even buy the packs we already own? I'm almost at the point where I want to stop playing this game because it is annoying me so much.Solved33Views2likes3Comments
Game Not Opening - Symbolic Link
I've had my Sims 4 user folder located on a secondary drive (internal). It's been working fine up until the past few days. The EA app has been giving me connection errors and now the error says it's having issues with the game not launching on their end. All of my mods are up to date, it was again, running fine until recently. I've reinstalled the game once and the EA app multiple times. The game works fine when removing the link. My question is how to resolve the junction link causing the game not to open, as it has no extra characters in the name. I have also redone the link twice and the issue persists.Solvedaquamarine_blues7 days agoSeasoned Novice126Views1like8Comments
How To Remove A Piece of CC. . .
Normally, I know how to remove cc and mods. But there is one particular piece of cc that for some reason is showing up in my Main save in CAS, but curiously NOT in the Mods folder. How is it possible to rid this beastie from my game? It is totally corrupted inasmuch as the wearer has streaks of black paint on their skin and I believe there is a question mark, too. I have already removed it from the other save's Mods folder, once I researched the Internet for the name of it. If you come across a really sweet blue I8th century style formal dress for a little girl, named Felicity's Surprise, steer clear it. Once I found the name of it, removing it was as simple as hitting delete. I have even gone so far as to remove any saves in this folder having to do with my other period-piece save. That didn't help. I am beside myself, since in my Main Save's Mods folder there is no sign of this cc. Not even something unidentifiable. Believe me, that would have been the first item to be deleted. I do have my mods in their own folders, hahaha, for ease. And I have roamed through every one of them looking for a file that shouldn't be there. I have come up empty. So, I have flat out run out of ideas, and I must be wording my problem wrong, because I can find no help online. Which is odd. If you have an idea, I pray you would share it with me. I'm at my wits' end. Please, and thank you, in advance.Solved86Views0likes5Comments
Sims 4 Staring as background process
Hello, I'm having trouble with my sims 4 game regarding the task manger and running it as an app. I do have mods and CC, I've been doing the 50/50 method the whole of yesterday, and had no problems with running the sims 4, now today it is only running as a background process. This has happened before many times, and I often come on the forums for answers, I've tried every single one, but nothing is working this time. I have also tried to run EA and Sims 4 as administrator, that didn't work, I've uninstalled and reinstalled sims about 3 times and that also didn't work. I have script mods turned off after the recent update, and I have also started a new folder, that didn't work either. I just want to play my game. I've attached my DxDiag below. Please help me!Solved75Views0likes4Comments
Aged up with invisible head, only teeth.
Hello! So I had a sim of mine age up and there head is like invisible, and only the teeth are there. Obviously suspected bad CC or outdated mods but after doing the 50/50 I couldn’t find anything causing the issue. Turned off mods and still missing her head. I’ve tried the following: cleared the localthumbcache and avatarcache files 50/50 of all mods and CC and updated mods haven’t done a game repair yet as I’m nervous to do so. This is my legacy save and have worked years on it and survived two file corruptions. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!Solvedyukicross233713 days agoSeasoned Novice50Views0likes2Comments
Grange Mudroom not showing in game
Hi, does anybody else have issues with the new kits in game? I purchased the Grange Mudroom when it came out, even played with it, had no issues up until today when it doesn't show in game anymore and the icon in the game store is as in the picture. Is this a EA issue? I tried repairing and broke my game so I uninstalled the game, reinstalled. Game works now, kits still dont.Solvedcvxqy14 days agoRising Novice47Views0likes3CommentsGame issues caused by Mods
Hi, this is the first time I am posting on this forum, I apologize if something is not correctly worded. I have a MacBook Pro 13" M1 2020 Laptop RAM 8GB. I do use mods and CC. Since the last update, my game no longer works. I have used all the troubleshooting technics, updating mods, 50/50 method, repairing, uninstalling, reinstalling, renewing the whole sims 4 folder, removing the mods folder. The only way I can get the game to work is if I remove all my saves, and only keep Build/Buy CC. No CAS CC, or Mods, nor recovering past saves. I no longer know what to do. Do I have to get rid of all CC and mods permanently? Are my saves completely corrupted and lost? Is this a Mac problem? Will there be a solution? Thank you for taking the time to read. PS.: Sorry for sounding desperate. Sims 4 is the way I wind down from work, it really helps me disconnect, but I don't think I will continue playing if I can no longer use mods and cas cc :( iSolvedmjdeacha16 days agoSeasoned Novice86Views0likes13Comments

Can´t use crystal creations pack
I bought the pack a little while ago and finally decided to play with it, but when I select for my sim to make jewelry piece or cut a gem it does not even show up in their task bar and they don´t do it and when I clock on design random jewelry for 300 simoleons, the action appears in their task bar but they just glitch out of the action every time. Does anyone know what mod could be causing this, I´m assuming it a mod as I don´t remember anyone complaining about this when the pack came out.SolvedSageThePlanty26 days agoSeasoned Rookie40Views0likes4Comments
CC not showing in game after latest update
So a few days ago, my Sims 4 game was updated via EA. After the update, I noticed the CC I had used for the game was not showing in the game. I did the usual techniques - such as turning on "Enable Custom Content and Mods" and "Script Mods Allowed" in Game Options - Other; moving the CC mods to another folder named Mods elsewhere on my laptop - and the issue still persists. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the Sims 4 and the CC still won't show up. I have extracted all the CC mods. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.SolvedSRattenxx27 days agoRising Newcomer113Views0likes3Comments
Solved? - Some Strangervillle lots crash my game after the update.
Edit - I feel a little silly for not thinking about this. Apparently I still had G-shade installed. After I deleted G-shade from my game It worked again. So if you happen to use G-Shade or ReShade and have the same issue. Maybe uninstall that and see if it fixes it. I have not seen this mentioned yet. I have managed to fix my game and my save files are okay too. I just wanted to start the Occult legacy. With that one you start in Strangerville. Long story short, if I try and load (even without mods and cc) one of the Strangerville Plaza lots in Strangerville it closes/crashes my game. This is in build mode or with a family. Even traveling to one of the lots crashes the game. I can not find the reason as to why this happens. And I wonder if anyone else has trouble opening these lots as well. Also, after the game crashes, the EA App gives me the notification ' Failed to launch game An error on our end caused the launch to fail. try again a little later'. This notification does not happen when I launch the game, but when it crashes. The game launches fine. Added the latest crash files below along with a screenshot of the lots that cause the crashes.SolvedAnjaEnAmber28 days agoSeasoned Newcomer99Views0likes4Comments
Where is a.deep.indigo?
With the new sims update, many mods have been broken or rendered unplayable. However, the majority of these mods have already been fixed, are in the process of being fixed, or allow for a way to contact the creator in order to let them know about this issue. When it comes to Healthcare Redux, though, I haven't seen any updates or any ways of contacting a.deep.indigo that actually work. If they do not plan on updating their mod, that is 100% fine. I'm just trying to figure out if I should wait for an update to Healthcare Redux that would potentially fix it or if I should just replace it with other mods. It has been a pretty big component of my game, with other mods even piggybacking off of it, so I definitely would be willing to wait for that update if there is going to be one.SolvedVinhel28 days agoSeasoned Novice3.6KViews5likes7Comments
Game crashes when I try to load mods through an external hard drive.
Because of my laptop's limited space, I have the game itself downloaded on an external hard drive, and I have followed a tutorial to link my mods folder to the same external hard drive as well. I've made sure the main game folder and the mods folder are not combined at all. In the past, I had the game downloaded through Steam, and this wasn't an issue for awhile, until the game started to crash even if I only had very few mods in the mods folder. After I deleted Sims 4 through Steam, I swapped to the EA app, and the issue still occurred. I have gone through my mods and deleted anything that could be corrupted or out of date, I have redone the tutorial to link my mods folder multiple times, I've refreshed the cache to my game and even repaired it multiple times as well. I've done a full reset, and nothing works. All script mods have been updated or removed. The game works fine when there are no mods installed, and the game still works if I don't have the mods folder linked to the external hard drive; mods do show up when the folder isn't linked. Any help would be really appreciated, as I've been struggling with this for a few months now. Thank you.Solved290Views0likes8CommentsError Code 403:8717c2e9:20314deb
