Broken sims yet again

So the story starts, I bought dine out and when I went to go get a restuarant from the gallery, its saying all the restuarants are corrupt would I like to delete. I couldn't find a fix so I never played never saved the game from before I got dine out I just left it for a few days. A couple days later, I see new update, I updated my sims did everything right moved my mods folder out backed up y tray and saves update went perf. I start the game up with no mods in to test it out, first thing flashing black and white screen at open..okay it loads in. Then I click on play my family, perpetual loading screen once I click them from the manage worlds place. Okay, I discover the black and white screen is bcus my driver is not updated, I update it, repair my sims with cache and what not removed, emptied my tray and saves, mind u mods still not in there. I open sims with a fresh start no mods no old family, on the raw game it works and no more flashing black and white screen. Okay good, I then copy my tray and saves into the new sims4 folder and go to load up one of my families, same thing once I click play from manage worlds and from the main menu..perpetual loading screen. I'm so tired of this game please help.

  • So an unmodded save opens fine, but the previously modded one doesn’t load into live mode? Did you use food mods and does the previously modded one open with mods back in?

    (If it still doesn’t load even with the mods back in, take them out again and then check for a LastException as crinrict explained)

  • Hi 521204​ 

    Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

    - Delete the ones you have
    - Trigger the error again
    - Check if new ones are created
    - If that is the case, please copy/paste the content here. You can open the file with any text editor.


    Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Posting the info is meant for troubleshooting.
