Well I do not have it all despite what you say so you'll just have to accept it. I was not using any mods and had not for a couple of months at least without any problems.
Perhaps because other people are also experiencing this, some in new games from scratch and not long-term save files it is not a problem with my individual save file and may be caused by a bug in the game? I know you guys like to place the blame squarely on anyone experiencing a glitch but the sims has a lot of bugs all the time.
Try to look a little harder to see if you should not have this file that you can see at the bottom of this screenshot here:
The reason we always suspect mods is that in the majority of cases that turns out to be the case So when I can't replicate an issue in my game the first thing I suspect is Mods/CC. so start troubleshooting there. There are a couple of threads where it has been determined that Mods are the case. Please see if you can use solutions mentioned there.

Alright I did find the cache file after the 5th time looking. It's not like there are a lot of files to look through so I don't know why I could not find it. I deleted it and am repairing the game through orgin for the 3rd time. I have about 26 packs so it takes awhile and I will absolutely update and let you know if this is a possible solution.
I have already stated multiple times there are no mods in use and the folder is empty. If you don't have any not mod-related suggestions to give me I will simply give up and hope there is a patch for this down the road. - 5 years ago

So deleting that file and repairing the game did not work.If my save file is somehow corrupted from some long-ago use of mods I am screwed because this is a generational game already in it's 17th generation; losing out on over 7 generations and paying $33 for the pleasure is ridiculous.
You wanna go ahead and blame mods and consider this solved be my guest but I will just have to abandon this file and hope there is a patch for it down the road. It is just a shame because I was really looking forward to this pack. - jpkarlsen5 years agoHero (Retired)
You already confirmed that it worked in a new game without Mods so we know that it was caused by mods. Permanent damage to a save usually happens because the user notices something in his save and do a Save and Exit making the issue permanent. The correct thing to do in such a situation is to exit without saving. As I wrote earlier you can try to restore an older save (The game saves 4 backups) from before this happened. In the future I will recommend making a backup of the Saves folder when there is an update to the game so it will be easy to restore everything in case something happens.
