My game will sometimes launch & sometimes not with the same CC

Which platform? Mac

Any mods or cc? Yes but script mods are removed and so is 95% of my CC (for debugging)

Game Version? Up to date

Description: I have been debugging for hours and managed to remove some “corrupted” save files and old mods. So I’m in the process of reintroducing everything and when adding back my CC, it sometimes launches & sometimes doesn’t, WITH NOTHING CHANGING. I have deleted the localtumb thingy multiple times, enabled & disabled mods (in game). I don’t understand why it sometimes launches? I just want to add all my CC & mods back 😭 (I have been doing this for 4+ hours)

I’m also not even sure if those mod & save files were corrupted, as apparently my sims has a mind of its own when it does & doesn’t want to launch 🤷‍♀️

  • ArchAngel_061​ Two questions:

    Are you using anything like OneDrive or iCloud at all? Anything that syncs files? 

    Does the game consistently keep loading okay, multiple times in a row, if you rename the Mods folder (also delete the localthumbcache file) and don't add anything to it?

    My game was unable to launch with CC/mods (I debugged & updated everything) and now it launches with some CC (like 10 items) but also it’ll sometimes not launch, when I have changed nothing. It’s almost as if it can’t handle me adding anymore CC or practically 90% of my CC is corrupted (which I very much doubt) as I’ve been testing in bunches to find the “broken” ones, but it’s not consistent.

    I just want to be able to use all my CC & mods, as my saves are basically unplayable without them. 

    What i’ve tried so far: delete localthumbcache (multiple times), new mods folder, removed potentially corrupted save files, all mods are up to date/only using mods that are compatible with new update, enabled & disabled mods in game, repaired the game…. (i think i’ve done more, i just have forgotten as i’ve been doing this for hourssss)
