Build/Buy mode to Live mode glitch.

Preface: updated all mods, game was fine before adding Lovestruck add on. New issue as of 10/2024

My game runs completely fine in every way till I go to build/buy mode and that works fine as well I can place objects but as soon as I come back to live mode suddenly my UI is completely gone. I cannot see my sims panel or change from sim to sim or even have whatever sim is currently selected so anything. I am able to save the game and exit it and when I restart it runs completely fine. That is until I enter build/buy mode again. 
So every time I want to build/buy I basically have to save my game and exit after and reopen sims to play the family. I have repaired my game before and after updating my mods. I have not tried removing my mods yet I am hoping that is not what I will have to do 🫠 wanting to see if anyone else is having this issue first and see if it is the game or pack itself as I was not having issues before it. So sad. Lol please tell me someone else is having the same issue! Photo attached of what it looks like after I come back. This was after just going to build/buy, not placing or removing anything then going right back. My sims are carrying on as usual but I cannot control them. Maybe they’re finally fighting back for full autonomy but I don’t trust them not to kǐll the baby lol.

  • @Seas_sempiternal Most UI issues are a result of outdated mods, and sometimes a mod version is incompatible because of pack features. Try a vanilla test:Drag the Mods folder to the desktop, delete the file called localthumbcache, open the game to test, and exit without saving.

    Then if that works, start at Broken/Updated Mods & CC (There will be a new thread tomorrow, but this one will still be available). This is the previous thread for Lovestruck: 1.108
