    Hello.

    Is anyone still seeing this issue after today's patch?

@crinrictI did! No change, though. Robo also took a look at some of my files for me and let me know that nothing looked too out of place on first blush, but that they're still looking into it.

Thanks!!

@xoxogossiphobbit Do you by chance have an EP12 Delta folder (you shouldn't)

    @crinrict Oh, interesting. Okay so I don't really know what I'm looking at here so please let me know if this is unusual:

    In steamapps > common > The Sims 4 I do have a folder called Delta filled with subfolders for what seems like every single release (not just the packs I actually own, but all of them). Clicking through these, they all seem to have a variety of files in them including string files, etc., but my folder for EP12 is the only one of these which contains only a single file: ResourceClient.cfg

    Is the problem that this folder is missing the files from my steamapps > common > The Sims 4 > EP12 folder? I could maybe just copy them in there, but I don't know what this Delta folder is or does lol

    Thanks for bearing with me here!

      @xoxogossiphobbit yes, copy the file in there.

      Have you been using twistedMexis mod ? I can't remember which one but there was some issues with that. Maybe there still are for the steam version.

      You should not have that folder unless you use a mod that created it.

      Usually on the first patch after an pack release that folder is created. Since we haven't had one, you shouldn't have one.

        @crinrict I use Better Build Buy, but I uninstalled it along with all my mods and cc before doing a fresh install of the game. Even without BBB functioning, I was having the issue. But I guess I must have messed up the removal of the mod along the way because I just put my mods back in and added the string file into the Delta folder and that totally fixed it! Very glad this was just my own silliness and not an issue with the game itself. Jeeze Louise.. thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it!!!
