I've done the hotfix for this today and I am STILL receiving the "Failed To Launch Game" error. I even did a repair on the game as well. If I remove all CC from my game, I can play, but I'd really enjoy playing with all the CC I have downloaded.
Hi androgsam
Have you tried 50/50 or just put in one mod, one cc to test ?
Have you tried a fresh user folder and no reshade and it still doesn't load or is it still cc related ?
I just did the 50/50 with the CC since I know that is where my problem lies. I had 3 CC that cause me to have the same error as before.
With that, I decided to fully load up a household. That loaded up fine. I guess I'll have to see about those CC that aren't working and see exactly what is wrong.
turns out it was reshade hahaha, ive updated reshade now and i dont seem to be having any issues. thank you for suggesting this otherwise i wouldve never got it fixed!!
androgsam Could be they're just not working anymore and need updating.
androgsam If you identify a culprit, please let me know what it is and I can run a test.
Hey! Just wanted to chime in because I was dealing with the exact same issue and finally figured it out.
I tried literally everything first:
After all that, I figured out the problem was some CAS CC not being compatible with DX11. My script mods and Build/Buy CC were totally fine, and even some CAS worked, but certain files would crash the game before it could even launch.
To double check, I ran my CC through Sims 4 Studio batch fixes (DX11), and the files that wouldn’t batch fix were the exact ones causing the issue.
Try running your CAS CC through Sims 4 Studio—anything that fails the batch fix is probably not DX11 compatible and can stop your game from launching.
Hopefully this works for someone!
Why is this still happening??
yellowduckie22 have you got UI cheats installed? That was causing a black screen for me after this update but I removed it and now my game has started loading again :)
I'm still getting a black screen since the new update as well.
