03/23/26 Update - Game is still unusable

Before today's patch, I wasn't able to get my game to launch at all without disabling all cc/mods. It would read "unable to launch game" as many others have noted in their bug reports. As of today, since the patch, the game launches! Except the home screen is blacked out, with only the left-side menu font visible. Even after accessing the main menu, the game will not load via resume, load, new save, etc. This is such a mess that I can't even get a screenshot of the main menu. 

How on earth does a billion-dollar company have so many game-breaking updates and then require patches for said updates? Does EA just not bother to see if these updates and patches affect their UI overall, let alone try playtesting? Customers are spending hundreds of dollars for a game that is unable to work with the majority of the updates, which isn't just upsetting, it is flat-out insulting.

    Hi Gambler91A​ 

    sounds like an outdated UI mod issue so how did you remove your mods/cc ? Did you delete the localthumbcache file and move the mods folder to the desktop ?

    Could you maybe post a screenshot ?

    Hi! Think i got the same problem.  The menu looks like this (file below) . When i took the mods out, it was working fine, but when i put it back in, it turned black again and impossible to do anything.
