Aliens Super broken?

Okay sooooo after the most recent update for the enchanted by nature pack i cannot create or play with alien sims at all. tried to create one and the game crashed and when I started moving mods out and combing through all my cc, turning a sim into an alien out of CAS caused time to pause and i wasn’t able to click on anything that wasn’t a drop down menu. it’s definitely not my CC as i’ve completely removed that and put it back in. i’ve reinstalled the game and uninstalled it and at this point im starting to accept this might be an EA issue.

ive also tried deleting localthumbcache.package and repairing the game and that’s done nothing :(

just wondering if anyone else has had this issue or if there’s some kind of cache files i can delete 

advice
cc or mods removed
freezing
pc
tips

    chaoticKuroba​ dokidokiboke​ Could you please try this?

    1. Drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop.
    2. Launch Sims 4. You should get no list of mods on launch, and you should have no option to load a previous save. Reset your Options.
    3. Start with New to test if your issue recurs in a new game.

    That will let us know for sure if any lingering mod/CC issues are causing this in your cases.

    chaoticKuroba​dokidokiboke​ can you clarify the exact steps you take to make an alien? Are you creating a new household, or trying to modify an existing sim? Once in CAS, do you start with a human sim and apply the alien occult, or add a sim as an occult from the beginning?

    I haven’t been able to reproduce this yet.

    dokidokiboke​ Are you also on PC ?
