    @marrokaansebelg  As a test, please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just let me know whether you can get far enough to start a new save and play in live mode for a bit.

    If that doesn't help, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

@marrokaansebelg You can also check the Broken/Updated Mods list and the previous Broken/Updated Mods list  before doing a 50-50. Often, those lists will be enough to solve your problem by removing listed broken mods and updating others. (Be sure to delete  the old mod before adding the new one.)

In addition to the 50-50 instructions linked above, be sure that any script mods are tested alongside their dependencies (core mods, injector mods) if they have them. If the core mod or injector mod is not also there, the game just won't see the script mod and you can't tell if it's broken or not. Details in 50-50 in the How To post in this forum.
