[MOD RELATED] Icons are blank squares/ UI Glitching
As you can see the timer at the bottom is invisible and the other icons at the bottom, this has just happened today so I'm not sure what it could be. Any help would be great š thanks!

The text>>>>>object_whirlpool_CornerJets:
has been an issue in my game forever. I have no idea what it is, there is no such object in my mods folder.
Also >>>>File "T:\InGame\Gameplay\Scripts\Server\objects\client_object_mixin.py"
has been an issue forever. What is T:/????? there is no such location anywhere on my PC
None of this exception report seems to have anything to do with the issue of the white out game window buttons and icons. I have contacted EA with no results, I repaired the game, did everything they told me to do. Every time EA updates the game they create new issues and I have to spend hours and days and week and months trying to fix my game. This is getting very old.
Maybe somebody can look at my screenshot and tell me what to do to fix this game.....again.
If you use any mods or cc please check for updates to them / where you found them; after any sims update or game pack added, as they are known to break the game.. or at the very least cause issues; SimsVIP also do a regular post for people who use cc; on which ones are broken or now updated; All on the one page too, and the best list.
Apart from culling your folders one by one, or the 50/50 method, to narrow down the broken cc or mod, that is all you can do, (restarting and checking your game each time) you'll simply need to find the broken mod/cc it and remove it
Mods & cc are well known to cause various in-game issues please check for updates to them / where you found them; do this also > after any sims update or adding a game pack,
I use Sims 4 Studio for batch fixes, as it solves a lot of problems in bulk (but not all.) It's also available for Mac. And is updated frequently, with pack relevant bug fixes.
Cache Files: There is a step by step here on Clearing Cache Files(you can also move it to the desktop instead of deleting if you want to be on the safe side).
Another idea for you is to to a Clean Bootof your pc.
I'm pretty sure this is a mod issue. If you are using a mod that affects the UI, try removing it to see if things go back to normal. UI Cheats did get broken with the patch so if you are using that particular mod, it has been updated and you will probably need to get the updated version.
A few days ago i was playing sims and everything was normal. Today i made a new sim and when i started to play the bar at the bottom if the screen is just silver with no like pictures (for example the smiley face for the needs) i posted a photo! Ive never had this before how do i fix that? Thank you!
I did have a mod called UI Cheats Extension, I removed it and my game is normal again. I noticed there is a new update for that mod so I might try that. Thanks.
Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save. If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.
This all started after I bought the werewolf pack, all of the little icons at the bottom of my screen are not there, like they are invisible. They are still usable, but there just not there. I have searched up how to fix this but all I can find is reset it - but I don't have any of the stuff needed to do that (I don't think), can someone tell me how to get my symbols pack? It is really difficult to play the game without them,
also - my werewolf skills tree is non-existant, none of my werewolf sims have them.
