Newly Broken/Obsolete Game Mods
See also the Previously Broken list below for mods broken by earlier game updates. The Updated Mods post below this one includes mods that were broken, not just feature updates. Also listed separately: Broken CC: CAS and Build/Buy custom content, including gameplay objects.
If you're coming here for the first time, you can work your way through the lists till you're caught up. If you've already done that, the posts after the lists are dated by each day, so you can keep up with what's happened since the last cay you checked.

Broken/Outdated
- custom preferences that use custom categories
- not all are listed below
- break CAS loading - Zerbu's new The Sims 4 Custom Preferences Mod (Tumblr) enables these mods to not break CAS loading. See the mod’s page for which custom preferences are currently covered. See the Core/Injector post in this thread for the latest update date. Check "cleared" and "updated" before using a preference mod.
- crash CAS on randomization - mods need to be updated to include this feature. I'll note in the list when that happens.
- Custom preferences that use EA’s categories, such as Simularity’s, are NOT broken. That includes for CAS randomization.
