Re: I deleted all my mods and cc and now i cannot enter my save file

Hello,

Sorry for the long message, i hope i am in the right place with this question, if not i am happy to hear where else i can turn to!

i was playing for almost a year now in a save file with mods and cc. I was having an issue with all sims stopping their entire action and animation, while the task was still in the task bar. It was almost as if i paused my game but time still continued, so did aniamtions around a playing child or the flickering of the flames in a campfire, almost as if all sims went afk. This also accured in the livestock like the goats, cows and chickens.  While i could still freely move the camera and interact, although if i clicked on a different sim to switch to them, it took a little while before switching, same as clicking to commence a task for a sim; it would appear in their task balk, but only after like half a minute. If I just waited like 2 minutes all sims would simultaniusly continue their current tasks, getting out of "afk mode" and my mouse actions would also be smooth again. But it got really annoying to play and just wait and waist time during the short sim days. So i thought, it is probably one of my mods. First i deleted some big ones like mccc and the royalty mod one by one, but that didn't make a difference. Then i deleted all my most recent downloaded cc since i just started having this issue since a month or so. But that also didn't fix the issue. So then i thought, let's just remove everything and add it back one by one to see what works. 

Now I cannot enter the save file. I can enter other save fils, but not recovered ones of the save file I want to play in. When i click to play it gives me this error: "The game failed to load code: 111.41812468:3cd0fd26. It is recommended that you relaunch the game." If i click ok i can interact with the different worlds and i can click on other households to play, but the game just gets stuck on the loading screen and i have to forcibly shut down my laptop to close the game. I relaunched, repaired the game, and restarted my laptop all several times, but i still can't play in the save file. 

Maybe if i add all the mods back in the folder? But i am scared that will break the game even more. It might be important to note that litteraly every sim in the game wore exclusively cc clothing and hairs (it was a historic challange). But there were only about 50-60 sims in the entire save file (including non played households). 

My question is, is there a possibility for me to save my save file? I really hope there can be a solution, thank you for looking at my situation in advance and sorry if there were some spelling errors in my message, not a native speaker. Also now that i try to see the game version in my files, it is in a different language, maybe it is releated to this problem, this is what is says: " ⸱〱⸵㐳⸵〱〲" in the file game version. In the main menu it shows up normal.

Best wishes, Roos
