I loaded into the game after the new update, and all the doors disappeared. My sim lives in Medina studios in San Myshuno, all the doors for the other apartments have disappeared. So now my sim can’t leave her apartment because i cannot place a door on the pre made apartment wall, and it isn’t allowing me to place doors on the inside of my apartment either (“script call failed”).

    Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

    took out all of my mods and cc and this issue is still there. All of the doors in all of my saves are gone, and I can't place any either. This started happening after I updated my game for the 7/26/22 patch. EA, please playtest your updates before you release them. I know you can. It's literally ridiculous. Also wondering if there's any mod fix for this.

    If you saved in this state your save unfortunately were permanently damaged. After removing the faulty mod you have three options. One: to replace all doors. (not an option in apartments). Two: load a previous save. Three: Start a new game.

    Playing on PC and I just did the latest update. When I loaded my latest game, all of the doors in my house were gone and I can't rebuild them. Arches are fine, so that's been my work around, but you can't exactly have an arch as a front door. Help??

    All doors won't place and give the warning of "Script can't be fulfilled" no matter what kind of wall, the only door that will place is pet doors on outer walls.

    How did you fix it? I'm currently having that issue

    The update happened and then I logged on and entered an ongoing saved file I have been renovating the property in and I realized...THERE WERE NO DOORS!!! And when I tried to replace them the game wouldn't allow it. I kept getting a notification saying "Script Call Fail". 

    Now I saw on another thread that it might be an "Adult Mod" that needs updating since the Sims 4 update. Well...I am assuming they meant Wi@ked Wh!ms and B@sement@l mods....I have both and I upgraded the 1st and the 2nd hasn't had an update since April 1, 2022. I am still having the door issue on my saved file. I don't want to mess around too much and screw up my saved game. The house and that Sim took alot of time and work. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME FIX MY GAME!!!! I am a Mom with medical issues and this game is the way I relax nightly.

    Sincerely-

    Why? this latest patch has really $%#@ me off. i freaking love this game and now. with this latest patch, Grrrrrrr. ok i have a question for all that have updated with the new patch.

    So, with new patch updates i am used to things getting deleted. However, not with this update ALL doors to all my houses have now been deleted. So, all of my sims are now locked in their houses or cant get in from the cold. Yes stuff getting deleted is VERY annoying, but i am now used to having to go back and replace whatever was deleted. Except this time I cant. Yes i do have and play with mods. I mean what true simmer doesn't. But for the recorded no MOD's are active or running right now & when i go into build mode to replace the doors. I cant and i get a error message. it only last a sec so i cant even screenshot it. but the error message says "script call failed" the doors show with green arrows like i can place them there. But the game wont let me. Is ANYONE else having this issue?
     
    Has anyone found the fix to this issue. All i can see are others that have this issue back in 2019 & nothing in 2022.

    SCRIPT CALL FAIL ERROR?? Every time I try to place any door in the game as well as some other furniture items it just says script call error. I have tried repairing game files from origin. I also has an application on my computer that lets me know if any mod or cc on my computer is broken. I have updated that and have no broken mods or cc. My T.O.O.L mod is fully updated. The script error is still coming up. Is there anything I am missing? Is this happening for a lot of people since the new expansion?

    I am playing on a pc (well laptop, not mac). The game updated, then I had to manually go into origin to start downloading the high school years. I cannot tell you if I even have the bonus packs and items because I cannot even play. My family cannot even get into their house!! I went into a previous save that was saved prior to the update the doors were gone on that one too! Decided let's make a new family moved them to a house....guess what?! No doors there either!! I'll be honest I'm not the most tech savvy person but I made sure everything was up to date. So my question is what to do with the script call fail. Help please 😔😔😭😭

    Yep that's a mod issue, whatever you do, do not save your game in this state -

    Go through your mods list and update all that have been updated -

    Remove any mods that are broken but haven't yet been updated.


    Make sure you delete the localthumbcache.package file after updating your mods (or removing/adding mods).

    @jpkarlsen Ok but for the record, before the update dropped I saved my mods to another folder and deleted all that were in TheSims4 mod folder. Then I saved all my saved games to a different folder as well. I also turned off the mod/script box in the game settings. All this was done last Saturday because I know how updates can go. So on Wednesday after the update I was not running any mod’s , it was just base game and expansion packs & stuff I had bought from EA/Maxis.I know how glitchy some of these patches can be, so I wanted to be prepared this time. I’m downloading HS Year now and going to check it out again later today.
    I also checked my pc and I don’t have localthumbcache.package.in any folder on Amy hard drive.

    @Sirhc2269 Okidoki I just wanted to give an update. I downloaded and installed HS Years and restarted my game. My doors were still missing but this time it let me add the with no error message. Since I have all my original saves copied to a different folder. I saved and edited the game. (Well I did go to HS first, lol) had to see what is was like.
    Then I restarted my game & doors are still there. So on my door issue I was having, seems like it fixed itself.
    Still running with no mod’s , since 7/24. So I don’t know if High School Year fixed it or what. But other than the patch on 7/26 & HS Years on 7/29, I have not changed or touched anything since 7/24. When I deleted my mod folder content & backed up my save folder.

    Yes, removing the faulty mod will allow you to add doors again except for apartments were the only remedy is as I described earlier.
