Mod won't show up in my game

@rosemow one last concern if it's alright ? after finishing CAS and clicking to save and play, the game keeps crashing. Does this have to do with the cc? :/

I'm not @rosemow (she's nicer and prettier than me) but that sounds like it could be bad CC. Remove your mods folder and delete the localthumbcache and see if you can start the game without crashing. You could roll back to a save from before you installed the CC to be on the safe side (and to avoid nekkid Sims), then gradually test the CC to see if you can figure out what's causing the problem.

You’re welcome @softodinsons :) It sounds like some of your cc are broken. It woukf be be best to do what stilljustme2 helpfully posted.
Try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Delete the cache files
https://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/delete-cache-files/
Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item or batch in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.

Hey there! I'm actually having a similar problem as the first one mentioned on this post, and I can't seem to figure out any way around it!
It's a script mod, it shows up on the script mod list in the menu when I boot the game up, but then it's not actually in my game at all!
I've checked to enable the mods, removed it from it's folder, removed all other mods, deleted the mods folder & had a new one created, gone through the cache files, and restarted my game about a million times. I've tried loading it with old games, and made several new ones to try and get things to work. I've made sure there are no duplicate files, I extracted the files with 9 zip, and from what I can tell, it looks how it should.
Any ideas?

Hello @yaoifreaklover
Try redownloading the file again and see if it appears in your game then. Also check on the download site of the mod, to see if there is a specific way of installing the mod and finding it in game.

Also with script mods, they can’t be more than one folder level down in your mods folder. You need to place the script mods either directly into the mods folder, or only in one level/folder in the mods folder.
For example, with the MCCC mod you can have
Documents-Electronic Arts -Sims 4 -mods-MCCC
But you can’t have Documents-Electronic Arts -Sims 4 -mods- Script mods- MCCC

Thanks for replying!
I've already done all of that, I've been over all of the mod pages, common mistakes, and forums over and over again :/
I've even found images of what it should look like, and it fits the bill.
I thought I had said this but; I had also removed the mod from the folder it was in & placed it directly in the mods folder, the same issue still persists. I've tried absolutley everything I've found, to no avail!

I am sorry that you are having this issue :( I am just checking. Is your game uptodate with the latest game patch?

@rosemow
We figured it out! Sims 4 wasn't an exception in my firewall apparently, and it was stopping the mod's files from creating the data it needed to!
I hadn't thought to check, since the game itself had been working just fine~
Thank you for trying to help!

It is great that you have found the cause of your issues! @yaoifreaklover :)

none of the script mods in my game are working and all of my cc works so does anyone have any ideas

The November 13th patch broke all script mods. Please remove them from your game and delete the loaclathumcach.package file then check this thread to see if they have been updated and install the new version:

Also yes I do have script mods enabled

Hello @WildflowerMali
Try checking the broken /updated mods thread that Bananas_45 linked to , and check to see if your mods are listed on that thread, and if they have been updated yet. The recent patch broke script mods.

This link shows where the file is located. It is in your Documents-Electronic Arts -Sims 4 folder
