I have updated all of my mods and latest version of The Sims as of Oct 18, 2024. Dark form was previously working with the same mods installed, so I’m not sure what caused this to start happening.

i found a thread on this website with the same issue but no solutions were provided. Has anyone else experienced this issue and if so, what did you do to resolve?
