sims 4 wont start with any mods
So my game works perfectly fine with out any mods, but as soon as I put literally 1 file, it doesn't work. I tried downloading a brand new cc and it still does not work. I recently had a problem with this, but somehow fixed it, didn't touch it, went to play and realised my mods just disappeared from my sims 4 folder? and now every time I try to add any, it does not work. See attachment for the message it gives me.35Views0likes0CommentsSims 4 old back folder doesn't work
PLEASE HELP!!! I cleaned out my mods folder just to make sure I didn't have duplicate mods in the game. Once I was done, I couldn't find the Electronic Arts folder but my saves and mods were still in game. I ended up searching for the EA folder and two came up. It asked if I wanted to replace, I said yes and my entire game was wiped. I tried to use my back up sims 4 folder to add it back to the game and it's not working. Electronic Arts folder doesn't have the sims 4 folder and when I add it in it still doesn't load. I even renamed the folder so a new one could generate but it does not. The Electronic Arts folder has an "EA app" folder and in that folder an "ARD" folder and "machine. ini". When I click on the ARD folder there is a GEADesktop folder that doesn't open when I click on it. I've tried repairing the game, logging out of the app and restarting so a new The sims 4 folder can appear and nothing. That's the only thing that pops up.Ameyah013 days agoRising Newcomer13Views0likes0CommentsWillow creek keeps freezing
After the last update to fix the glitch with willow creek not responding it’s still not responding at all. Either trying to travel to the world the game freezes in place while the loading screen still in place and you can hear nothing but the background or going to the bar in willow creek or gym and try using the zoom in and out slide button and it freezes the whole game. Below will be a photo of trying to travel to willow creek but stuck in the load screen and can hear nothing but the background is playing.1TBH2 months agoRising Novice23Views0likes0CommentsI can't enter the game when I enter and the screen is black.
Yes, when I press enter the game, then the screen turns off, then flashes, then it flickers, then it flickers, then it bounces in front of the game tab, but the window is white and freezes like that, I waited, but it was still like that, and I couldn't press close to exit.19Views0likes0CommentsObjects glitching at basement level
Hi, so for a few months now I've had this issue where certain things do a flickering glitch when in basements. I have cc and mods installed but the glitching seems to occur with and without them. It isn't everything, most stuff is fine but some overhead lights, railings, stairs and assorted other stuff does this. Let me know if there's anything I can do about it, it's really bothersome, thanks!TaeS_712 months agoNewcomer23Views0likes0CommentsWon't Let Me Resize Objects
Hi, I just downloaded the game last night and it will not let me size up and down objects. I have a Mac laptop. I tried using the shift + [ ] keys with the object selected and nothing happens. I also tried the shift + ( ) keys for pc just to see if it would work. I even checked the keyboard settings on my laptop and my keyboard settings were already set to US and there is no UK option for keyboard settings on my laptop. I am officially at a loss as I have tried all of the troubleshooting for this issue that I could find. please help19Views0likes0CommentsSims game wont launch after getting new pack
I recently bought businesses and hobbies. I downloaded the pack and tried to open my game, and an error code popped up, so I updated all of my mods, but a different error code popped up. I went through my mods again and now my game is stuck in a never-ending loading screen25Views0likes0CommentsHover Text Box Stretching Out?
Believe me, I have absolutely NO IDEA how to describe this, so maybe I'd just better show you instead. See the screenshot I took. It seems to be doing this with items I have created, and on tombstone epitaphs in a graveyard mostly. But it is NOT a Mod issue, because this screenshot was taken when I removed the mods, as well as deleting everything that had the word "cache" in the name. Actually, it has been doing this on my tombstones ever since the Life and Death Pack, now that I think about it, but I haven't brought it up. Sometimes it goes away on it's own when I exit and restart the game, but then it picks it right back up again and does this. Does anyone else have this issue? Since I don't know how to describe this, I don't know how to look for fixes by myself. Please help!18Views0likes0CommentsSims 4 not launching on mac
I bought the new sleek bathroom pack installed it on my game and now it doesn't load. i am able to get to the page that says load game and once it goes to the 2nd screen it just stays there. i had to force quit. i have repaired the game, uninstalled and re-installed, and deleted my mods.Leenahs2 months agoRising Newcomer20Views0likes0CommentsSlow game
Hello, does it take ages to load screens in your game too? I don't have mods nor cc installed, tried to repair the game several times but still it takes so long (never happened before) to go from a screen to another, for example from cas to gameplay or to visit a place, to move or just to load the game... I thought it could be the numerous packs I have installed, maybe? I don't know...cause if this is the motive then do I have to remove all of them?😅 Thank youveronicasalva2 months agoSeasoned Newcomer24Views1like0CommentsCan't launch game

For the last few days every time I try to open the sims 4 it crashes on the sims 4 graphic. It does not even go to the main page before crashing. I cannot play the game at all. I do not have any mods or cc. Never have. I uninstalled and reinstalled, which did not change the issue. I deleted everything ea and sims related from my computer (Mac) and it still did not do anything.

I just got my Mac M3 and it has 165GB. I have had sims for 3 days and have no mods or no packs. I have restarted my Mac and went on EA and hit repair about 6 times. I can open sims but when I try to load in my household I'm stuck on the loading green gem and cannot get passed it. It has worked just fine until yesterday. Any suggestions on what to do, I am also new to Mac.w9bbgrwefcrd2 months agoNewcomer20Views0likes0CommentsMy game crashes after the first loading screen - Mac
When I try to play the sims it crashes after the first load in screen I've tried renaming my sims file, taking out all my mods, and reinstalling the EA app and sims and tried to repair the sims through the EA app and changing the advanced launch options.25Views0likes0CommentsGame is frozen, no controls are possible.
i just downloaded the sims 4 a couple days ago and now the app is completely frozen. i’ve tried clicking on things, opening menus but nothing is possible. the game is stuck in this form and i can’t do anything about it. i attempted to close the EA app but i can’t do that without closing the sims, which is a problem, because i can’t get to the closing menu. I can’t even click the little red X in the corner to get rid of it. it does nothing. i’ve pressed quit The Sims 4 and quit EA, NOTHING CAN GET ME OUT OF THIS SCREEN! i’ve reset the computer, logged out and back in, i’ve checked my internet connection and so many other things. NOTHING WORKS. please fix this. i was really excited to play this game.14Views0likes0CommentsMy sims 4 game won't launch (isn't responding)
Hi, I've never had an issue like this before but I tried to launch my game yesterday after adding a couple of mods and I got an error message that said "Unable to start: Cannot start because game data is missing or damaged. If you have Mods installed please remove them and try again. If not, please repair or reinstall the game via origin." I don't use origin. I use the EA App. Anyhow, I took out all of my mods, uninstalled and reinstalled the game and repaired it twice. Now, I no longer receive the error message. I try to launch the game and just get "Sims 4 isn't responding." I've tried everything. This is extremely frustrating. I play on a mac and recently updated it. Please advise. Thank you.Aturner72 months agoSeasoned Newcomer21Views0likes0Comments
