Previously Broken Sims 4 Mods and CC

ABOUT THIS TOPIC

This topic covers Sims 4 mods and custom content that were broken before the current game patch and that don’t have an update available.

 The lists here are selective!

  • They do not include 18+ mods, paywalled content, mods/CC that obviously break trademark or copyright rules, or some other categories discussed in the current Broken/Updated Mods & CC topic.
  • They also do not include a lot of old mods and CC, especially items that the creators deleted.
  • For gameplay mods, unsupported and obsolete mods are included as well as broken ones. For CAS and Build/Buy CC, only broken mods are included.
  • They don’t include everything a player has reported broken: many player reports don’t have any detail about what broke or about how they tested to find out the problem was that particular mod
  • A lot of mods and CC out there could be broken but that hasn’t come to attention recently enough to make this least.

For some items in the lists, symptoms are given. For a symptoms-focused resource, see the Mod and CC Issues master post.

REMEMBER: You can’t rely only on other people to know what’s broken in your Mods folder. Learn how to test your mods.

    Gameplay Mods: Broken, Obsolete, Unsupported

    KEY: LE = last exception; obsolete = the mod is a bugfix that’s no longer needed (and may cause problems if left in!) OR the creator has replaced it with a different mod; unsupported = the creator won’t be updating it if it breaks; adopted = another creator has taken over the mod 

    General Categories
    • "Washing Dishes" Fixes – obsolete and cause game issues now
    • Many Presets, Sliders, and Default Replacements – see [MOD/CC RELATED] Sims have a Shattered Buggy Face
    • World-Copying Mods – none currently released are supported/working. NOTE: For this category of mod, if you remove these mods, those saves won’t be fully usable, and all such mods had previous known issues
    • Custom Preference Categories – broken if NOT supported by Zerbu’s Custom Preferences Mod
    • Custom Holiday Traditions – if not updated after the July 2024 patch, tuning issues may affect gameplay
    • Child and Teen Custom Aspirations – from before the July 2024 patch
    • Custom Loading Screens that use the EA plumbob – from before the October 2024 patch
    • Main Menu Replacement Mods – from before January 23, 2025
    • Custom Club Activities – from before February 25, 2025; do not appear in the menu
    • Custom Freelance Careers – from before February 25, 2025; may cause households to not load
    • CC Tattoos – from before February 25, 2025; need to be batch-fixed in Sims 4 Studio if you have the Business and Hobbies pack, or they can't be removed
    • Child/Toddler/Infant Height Mods, Sliders, and some presets – not function and may block saving

    Mods by Creator

    NOTE: For some inactive creators, so many mods are known to be broken that I have suggested you assume all their mods are broken.

    KEY: LE = last exception; obsolete = the mod is a bugfix that’s no longer needed (and may cause problems if left in!) OR the creator has replaced it with a different mod; unsupported = the creator won’t be updating it if it breaks; adopted = another creator has taken over the mod
