my game is continuously loading which is making me unable to go into build mode

I honestly have no clue what to do. I went on tiktok to look for ideas and tried some of the ideas on there but none of them worked.

    Did you do these things first?
    EA APP \ repair
    Delete thumbcache
    start new game and test SIM

    Did you do try a clean ( mod free  with clean thumbcache ) game?

    *Mods do not need to be deleted, just removed from interfering to be clean game *
    Check for broken mods via the list here under pinned above.

    Check on DISCORD on Deaderpool's channel for a comparison broken mods list if you use a wider genre of mods.
    Update all core mods as needed.

    If you have removed mods already... delete the thumbcache and using EA APP do a repair.
    If still not working correctly... you need to remove all mods / trays / saves to desktop or rename them (see below ) then delete the thumbcache again, repair again and start a new game with a new test sim.
    Then you can add mods back 50 / 50 until you find a culprit.
    Then your trays and saves.
    OR
    ~Close the game
    Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    Repair the game
    Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry
    Start a new save game
    Check if you still have the error
    Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.~ quote from crinrict
