UI Last Exception issue since the new update

After updating everytime I play if I try to open my inventory or go into build mode or CAS the game stops working. In the case of the inventory it flashes open and if I keep clicking eventually it stays open, but all the buttons are labeled 'Wwwwwwww'. Then if I try to click any button on the UI it doesn't work. I do use mods so I updated all of those but it was still an issue, deleted all my script mods and it's still an issue (doesn't happen with no mods as far as I could tell when I tested it). I tried a new save and it was an issue. I now tried deleting my local thumb cache and then repairing my game. Still an issue. Please help I'm losing the plot

    Just want to check, you say you updated your mods.  Downloading them fresh is not the same as downloading updated mods.  Were ALL of them already confirmed updated and/or compatible?  If the issue doesn't happen without mods, then it's something not working with the mods.  You can try the 50/50 method to narrow it down.  And I know for a fact a bunch of a UI mods are currently broken (though the creators all seem to be working diligently to update them in a timely manner).  There are still a lot of mods out there that haven't been updated, and even some that have, there are newer updates and need to be redownloaded.

    Yeah I did check they were all updated especially after I started having issues. I usually have UI cheats and more columns installed, but I've gotten rid of them while trying to fix this. Thanks for responding! I'll try the 50/50 method today (Been dreading it)

    I did 50/50 method and it was the 1pancake color slider mod for anyone else having this issue...

    That mod has been listed as updated as of 4 July.  If you had already tried that version, it might be beneficial if you let the creator know via comment at where you downloaded it. Happy simming!
