Re: Aug 19 Update - Mod Crash Notes

I play with over 2000+ mods. Here are some helpful insights on which mods works and which are either 100% broken or possibly broken as of Aug 20th 2025.

If you play with mods, there is a great chance you have these mods: 

I have tested all of these and they are all SAFE (just make sure you have their latest updates)

  1. MCCC
  2. **bleep**
  3. Tmex better build buy & better exceptions 
  4. UI Cheat by weerbesu
  5. Panda Sama's mods
  6. Cooking Mods by Oni and Littlbowbub
  7. XMLInjector 

***As for CC: I do have over 1000+ pieces of CC and so far CCs are SAFE and unaffected by the patch. But just make sure you have the latest updates for these CCs. 

Here are the mods that I personally play with that broke my game:

  1. Xtra Interactions by SimmerKate
  2. LittleMsSam's mods 
    • I do have over 100+ of her mods so I am not too sure exactly which ones are broken but for sure at least 1 of them is indeed broken which resulted in my game breaking. 
    • But these are some of her mods that are SAFE (All the ones that she has recently updated as of Aug 20th are SAFE):
      • SpendWeekendwith 
      • Advanced Birth Cert
      • AntiFearTrainingPets
      • AutoRepair
      • BetterNanny
      • CallToMeal
      • FirstLove
      • HouseWarmingParty
      • MoreServingsOptions
      • NoAutoFoodgrabAfterCooking
      • NoRestraurantBillWhenInvited
      • PetFoodOverhaul
      • AllowanceMod
      • SubjectHomework
      • SpendWeekendWith
      • UnlockDoorForChosenSim

What I recommend you do to search which mods are broken:

  1. Backup your mods folder and save it somewhere else. 
  2. Delete the mods folder and start your game. You can see that the game will work normally. 
  3. Exit Game (DO NOT SAVE) 
  4. Locate the backup mods folder you stored elsewhere
  5. Re-add the mods but DO NOT re-add every mods all at once. Just re-add like 5 mods at a time. 
  6. Start your game. If your game runs normally and allows you to play, then you know those 5 mods are SAFE. 
  7. Exit Game (DO NOT SAVE). Repeat the process: Re-add 5 more mods, start the game, and exit until you determine which mods are broken and which are safe. 
    • I would keep a list of mods that you found are broken so you can replace it or re-add it once their creator post their updates.

Hopefully this helps!!!

    Mine wouldn't work at all because the mods didint turn off and back on during update. I turned them and scripts off restarted it then turned then back on and it suddenly worked.
