New CAS mods not showing up anymore

@Sassafraastree 

One thing you can try is to delete the localthumbcache.package file.  Doing that forces the game to create new thumbnails in CAS and the build/buy catalog.  It is safe to do and the only effect you will see in game is that it might take a couple of extra seconds for the thumbnails to regenerate in both CAS and the catalog, the relationship panel and any type of selection panel like for cooking, baking, etc.  

It is good practice to delete the file whenever you change your CC and mods before starting your game, especially if you remove a lot of things or are constantly moving CC in and out of your mods folder over time.  The thumbnails of the items removed will still be there in the file when they aren't needed anymore.  And it seems that, deleting the file also fixes other things that crop up like being unable to select more than one other household sim to travel with the sim initiating the travel.  So, you might notice a few little things like that as you play as well.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately, it has not worked for me, and I've even tried repairing the game again, but it has not worked. Thanks again though!

I was afraid that might happen and I'm sorry that it didn't work.

Since you're using the Legacy version of the game, another thing it could be is if the new CC you can't see in game was made with a base object from a pack released after the switch that brought Legacy about.  By object, I mean pretty much anything in the game, CAS or build/buy.  Or even some of the base game or earlier pack objects where the objects were updated for the later packs and may be incompatible with the Legacy version now.  

Just because a file will show up in the list at startup, doesn't mean that it will work in the game. If it has the package extension, it will show up in the list.  That doesn't mean the game will actually read and load the file.  If the game runs into a file it can't read or is otherwise incompatible when it's loading, it will simply skip the file and not load it.  I know it will happen with broken items and I suspect it may be happening for you if the file is incompatible with Legacy.

And it could be a mod as well.  I know that MCCC has a Legacy version.  Some others do as well.  If you happened to get a mod made for the regular version of the game rather than Legacy by mistake, even if the mod seems unrelated to CC, it could be the problem.  It's worth checking just to make sure.

The only way to find out for sure is testing though if something will work with your version of the game or not.  

Edit:  One thing that I thought of is to check if you have to run the Legacy version.  There have been other posts about Legacy where the helpers here have found that they didn't really need to and their computer was capable of running the regular game.  So, if you would like to know that so you could switch to the regular game version, just run a dxdiag and attach the results to your next post.  Here's how you do that.  How to gather information on your PC using DxDiag (ea.com)

Hope this helps.

I didn't think of that! I forgot that Certain mods, especially if they are newer might not work with legacy edition. I Have tried another CAS mod that was a bit older, and it worked! I guess i will just have to continue to find out if mods are compatible through trial and error from now on. 

Also, I've tried that, and I have attached the results. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the dxdiag.  Unfortunately, your computer isn't going to be able to run anything but the Legacy version.  If you do want to run the current version of the game, you're going to have to get a new computer.  Sorry to have to tell you that.  But when you do replace your hardware, at least the game and the DLC you already have will work but you may have to tell Origin to download the 64 bit version instead of Legacy.  

And for the time being, you'll have to test pretty much everything you download to check if it will work with your version of the game.

Hope this helps.

Same thing has happened to me, I never had any issues with CC before but the other day I was downloading new CC and ever since then some of my CC (both old and new) do not show up in CAS although it appears in the Mods list when I open the game, I’ve also tried everything. I’m wondering if there’s a chance I’ve downloaded something that created this issue now, but I have no idea what it could be and I have so much CC ☹️
