@Realjas You don't have to post on that page; I'll pass this thread on to Bluebellflora. (Maybe she'll have another idea for you as well.) In the meantime, there's one more thing you can try. Do another clean uninstall, create a new admin user account on your mac, and install into that account. Then patch the game, and if it doesn't run, apply the .sgr edits again.
A couple more questions: what OS were you running before Mojave? And do you have any antivirus software, or perhaps a program like Mackeeper that's supposed to clean or organize your files for you? These are notorious for messing with your system, and most of them aren't safe to run on macs at all.
I'll do what you mentioned and report back tomorrow afternoon.
I don't have any cleaning app or antivirus installed... Don't get any ideas! 😉 I ran the maintenance scripts through the terminal. I'm a web dev, so all this is not wholly unfamiliar to me. As for the OS, I believe I skipped High Sierra, so I guess I was on Sierra before?

@Realjas I've moved your post to the dedicated Sims/mac section. Hopefully your game is running now, but if not, and you'd still like help, please let us know.

Sorry for my absence. I still want to help however I can, but life got a little busy. I will attempt what was suggested later this week and report back.
Also, sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

@Realjas Don't worry about your absence; people often get busy and don't have time to test. And it doesn't really matter where you post, since I check both forums. We do generally like to keep mac OS issues here, but I mostly leave them in the TS3 section until they're solved or it's been a while since the poster came back. But it's never a problem to move a thread, and the point is to make sure people get help, not to nitpick about the organization.
Anyway, come back whenever, and let me know how I can help.
