All of my households disappeared
Hello there! Recently I had to do a factory reset of my laptop and everything was backed up on OneDrive, including TS4 files. Yesterday I decided to reinstall the game and everything seemed normal ...

Nope, I don't see the blue rectangles anywhere. The entire map is empty. Here are some screenshots that might be helpful (I'm sorry that the game is in Czech haha, I wanted to change it somehow ages ago but figured out it'd be too much of a hassle to do):
On the main screen, the outline of the character next to the "Continue" button is empty.
The recently played household still shows up in the Saved games section.
The household list is empty and the map too.
The message bar shows empty character outlines and no names.
I should also note that I use mods and CC build mode items and clothes.
The tray importer shows my households, even the kid of the Haley family that they recently had when I last played.
Is this fixable? Should I try deleting mods? I'm afraid that it'd mess the game up even more.
Also, I might try importing the households into a different save somehow (I have no idea how). Do you think their skills and relationships save here too?
Thanks! (I am going crazy honestly, I spent so long playing and perfecting my characters)
@BlueberryCZ Please remove all your mods, as in, move the Mods folder to the desktop, and delete localthumbcache.package. Try to load the oldest backup save you have, and let me know whether it helps.
If you see the same symptoms, don't save your progress. In the game options, disable SDX drops, quit, restart, and check again. Your issue sounds somewhat like another one that had to do with SDX drops, although not identical, so it's worth testing this.
Please also let me know whether a new save is affected as well or loads normally, just for comparison's sake.
Tried everything and nope, bad luck for me.
I attempted loading an old save (beginning of 2023) of the same game and all the households were fine, so there has to be a problem with the specific recent save of it.
I tried creating a new save and it was fine, it created me a Sim without any problems.
@BlueberryCZ Do you have a recent Last Exception file? Or one generated by Better Exceptions or MC Command Center?
Yep. And it apparently has a problem with babies (most of the text mentions babies and their skintones)? And also the SNBank Mod (if I understand it correctly).
