Mod and CC Issues, Discussion and Support: 1.103, Dec. 5&14, 2023 Game Updates

Thanks a lot @luthienrising  

Well I’ve got this type of issue for the first time and I’m playing Sims almost 10 years 😀

I’m gonna do the 50-50 and let you know if I find the answer 🙂))

Still working through my mods after removing them all. Now I'm down to testing the last few, and found two more that breaks For Rent.
Cannot find that this have been reported yet, sorry if I missed it. Anyway, Tmex-AllScenarios is broken and prevents you from renting an apartment. Same thing with Tmex-StoryProgressionViewer. I know the modder wants us to use Discord, but I still haven't figured out how to use that program.
Finally, huge thank you luthienrising for your hard work. Would be lost without these threads. ❤️

@Hafcio @BylineBelife Thanks to both of you! If either of you see this, can you give me your testing process?

@luthienrising - Since I don't have much cc, and only a few mods, I don't need to do 50/50. Normally just updating the mods I use is enough, but here we were warned that this patch almost broke everything.
Anyway, after updating my mods and I found the issue with the waffle iron and pizza oven (caused by Ravasheen, Keep it Fresh), I discovered the issue with not being able to move into or rent one of the new apartments.
I pulled my whole Mod Folder, started a new save, and proceeded to test a few mods at a time. I know from experience, which the more intrusive mods tend to be, and like I said, I only have a few. I quickly found it was both these mods that caused it, together as well as separately, with deleted localthumbscache, in between.

@luthienrising  I Testes it with only All Scenario and deleted localthumb  the result is you cant enter to the new Apartment ( ForRent Type ) you cant Even see any Information - 

After that i Took the mod out and deleted localthumb and everything worked

tested it multiple times to be 100% sure

my testing process is like you wrote in Page 1 from our old BrokenMods SimsForum :-)

Thanks @BylineBelife

For Keep it Fresh, was that an issue with household loading or something else? (Sorry, barely online today, so more questions than searching for previous posts...)

Thanks, @Hafcio !

It was the waffle iron and pizza oven not completing their tasks.
Edit: This happened with For Rent. It was working fine with the Home Chef pack.

Hi! A few days ago I updated my game as well as any mods or CC that needed patching and troubleshooting yet somehow I can't save my game D: Would absolutely love some help because I've been wanting to play now that my finals are almost over </3

Hi @xcinato There are still regularly mods being reported broken or updated, so head to Broken/Updated Mods for added news. You might want to subscribe to that thread for notifications of new posts.

If you have things not on that list and are still having issues, you will need to do a 50-50 on your Mods folder. This means organizing the files there into bite-size batches (with any files they require, like XML Injector or a Core Library mod or mesh) and testing one batch at a time. For each test, delete the file called localthumbcache, then put only that batch in Mods. If your game behaves as you expect, set that batch aside as "cleared" and delete localthumbcache again. If it doesn't behave as you expect, take out half the batch and see if you're closer to finding the culprit. Remember to delete localthumbcache each time. You'll find some 50-50 method tutorials online too. Once you isolate the file, you can go find out if there's an updated version.
