@spottedviolet60 That's a typical symptom of either outdated mods or mods that are missing parts. Here are some things to do:

  1. Remove all parts of any mods that are listed broken in Broken/Updated Mods & CC 
  2. Delete and replace mods listed updated in Broken/Updated Mods & CC . Check the installation instructions: Some mods rely on other mods and you need those too. Some you have to pick between multiple files, not install them all. Some you need to delete files for packs you don't own.
  3. Take out what's left if it's not been cleared by creator (also listed in Broken/Updated Mods & CC )
  4. Delete the localthumbcache.package file. Do this every time you remove or replace something from that folder.

Now try again.

hey so i tried doing what you said but nothing is helping, my sims are currently in the selvadorada at a vacation rental and they keep standing for a long time until they get completely exhausted and then theyll faint and comletely teleport away from the house to somewhere far away in a bush. Like i said i've already trying clearing up broken mods and that doesnt work.

    @spottedviolet60 Please do a "vanilla" test: Drag the Mods folder to the desktop, delete the file called localthumbcache, open the game to test, and exit without saving.
