Re: Sims 4 paranormal stuff pack - haunted lot type not showing up

@SalemKeano Okay guys, after sifting through my mods folder I’ve worked out that the problem with my game was Basemental’s Gangs mod. I believe that it was causing a problem because the mod creates a new lot type, so try removing any mods that do the same or that change the existing lot types.

    Not knowing where to start with sifting through all my mods and cc as there’s LOADS of it I have removed the basemental drugs mod and the basemental venue package as you said and it seems to have worked for me too guess it’ll need an update before it works again !

    @oreoavalanche Def! I love bmd will miss it until I can use it again! But now all my sims are bald and naked and I have to go through and fix that before playing with ghosts 😂

    @twocantoucan You can still use Basemental Drugs, dw! Just make sure you’ve got the most recent version and you take the custom venue stuff out. (I know that Gangs definitely isn’t working but I haven’t tested Alcohol or any of the Optional Files so I’d avoid those)

    I also have it working after basemental gangs is removed, had to do a few things first but considering its the only mod I have with lot types I had a sneaky suspicion it was the cause, luckily I can keep drugs too so I can live with that and I finally swapped out for wonderful whims I love the realism of most of it but the animations to me isn't needed (NO judgement however ofc it's however everyone enjoys the game)

    oh gosh this is all so stressful haha! i checked by disabling all mods and loading the game and suddenly it started working

    looks like tonight is going to be a looong night of sifting through every single mod

    including all the uhh... naughty ones fml

    if i find out what specific mod is causing the issue for me i'll be sure to post it here, even if it's a bit... embarrassing haha 

  • @mikitak ok so far ive only found my game to actually be loading the haunted house lot type by... moving my entire cc folder, which only has .package files. i'd moved all of my .ts4script files to another folder and it still wasn't showing up until i moved the cc. this is.. really weird
  • @mikitak turns out one of the conflicting cc was something to do with skin! i have a feeling that due to the new skin sliders a lot of cc skintones are causing some major issues.. it sounds so weird but i feel as if i may have pinned the issue

    @LucyDopey1234  thank you for your efforts!! I was having the same issue. Removed the file for the venues and it worked! Seriously thank you so much. I'm still relatively new to modding and haven't exactly figured out a good way to keep them tidy in my folders. It could have taken hours!

    had the same problem. went through and deleted ksuihuh_venue list.package (didn't worry about basemental venue bc i had removed the mod completely recently). when that didn't work, i just searched the word venue in my mods folder and deleted any venue packages (ended up removing zerbu- venues.package and zerbu- changes to existing venues.package). dont actually remember what those were for exactly lol but the stuff pack is working now so
