Thanks. So you moved one Mod into the newly created Mods folder then launched the game and it crashed again? What was the Mod?
Which exact model Mac do you have? And which macOS version?

- @Bluebellflora Not necessarily crashed, it just won't open at all and I get the notification that the game isn't responding. I tried just mccc and it opened after loading for 2 whole minutes, then when I added UI cheats it didn't respond at all! I have a MacBook Air and it's running on MacOS 14.4

Ok thanks. I'm moving this thread over to the Mods forum for further troubleshooting. Hi @tr1llestaries Let's test in a whole new user folder, so that there's no legacy information at all, AND with new mod downloads, so it's not a file you've moved before.
- Drag the whole Sims 4 folder to the desktop (or rename it, but personally, I find it easier to move it). EDIT: I know you did this before, but I'd like to try it in combination with fresh mod downloads.
If you had previously set the EA App to launch Sims 4 in DX11 mode, delete that setting in the app. We want as default as possible here.(Ignore that part as you're on a Mac.)- Start Sims 4 so it creates it a new user folder. Then exit.
- Download a new copy of a mod. I would suggest TwistedMexi's Better Exceptions (use the link from his website; you want version v3.13) or, since it caused you problems, UI Cheats Extension.
- Double click the zip folder and drag the mod file to the newly created Mods folder
- Start Sims 4.
Let me know if you this works. If it doesn't, let me know exactly how it doesn't work.
- @luthienrising It opens with only that 1 mod yes
