I just came by a very useful list of mods that are known to cause problems with the event.

Avoiding these mods makes sense, though playing without mccc feels weird for me.
The real problem is what is mentioned next.
Pausing, saving and exiting the game will break the UI. As someone with limited time in the game that's a though one. I don't know if I will be able to complete every step in one gameplay session. Going to CAS or a loading screen can also cause problems as well. This makes me wonder if this event was tested before launch. Being able to save and close the game and continue at a later moment should be a basic functionality.
I am glad the first week went well but I will keep these things in mind next week.
atreya33 Exiting the game part-way through didn't cause any issues for me. I had to do the quests over a few days but I've now finished week 1.
I only had problems getting the quests and not just the event panel to show up. I started a new save game and removed Simmattically's shopping cart mod (my only mod) and since then everything's been fine (I'm not sure which solved the problem).
