Re: Game still not working after 3/6/2024 update

Thank you @crinrict, for responding,

I deleted the LastException files from my documents folder and loaded the game. The social menu was still not working. I checked, and new LastExceptions were generated. I hope this is what you were requesting to see; if not, my apologies

Thank you again for your help.

@DamnDiva Please upload the actual file.

Best to probably open the lastException file you have there in a text editor, and copy/paste the content into a new post here.

Hey @crinrict,

Ok. After sending you this, I went deep into my EA Sims folder and found some more mods that I thought were moved to my desktop but were not (SMH, my Gen X moment). So, after moving them, I was able to play the vanilla game with no issues this morning. I was looking at the localthumbcache file, and I was trying to open it to make sure everything was up and up. I received this message: 

Thank you for all of your help. I was totally stumped until you pointed me in the right direction.

@DamnDiva localthumbcache is a package cache file. Don't open that. Delete it. It will recreate.

When using mods, there's often info in there from the mod so it needs to be deleted when removing mods to let the game create a new cache file without the info on the mod.

You can find some info on the file here: https://jamofjars.tumblr.com/post/175148221971/localthumbcache-101

Happy to hear if's working now.

@crinrict ,

Thank you so much for the information and the help. I will keep you posted. For now, I'm playing the vanilla game, but eventually, I want to reinstall my 16,483 cc/mods!!

did you get it to work since then? with mods?

@Natsuloool Are you getting an error with mods that you aren't getting without? If so, you can start at the current Broken/Updated Mods & CC list.
