Re: [MOD RELATED] Color options broken

Hi @6799g8nn0025 you need to find the broken cc or mod that created the problem remove it, & then repair your game.

There is also the sims 4 studio, which has batch fixes for many pack updates, and instructions on how to use it. Once you've installed S4S, it will go through all folders fixing both hairs and makeup, (different batch fixes) in surprisingly quick time. It fixes the sliders and so on, however, if you still experience problems, you'll still need to find the broken mod or cc.

  • Apart from culling your folders one by one, or the  50/50 method, to narrow down the broken cc or mod, that is all you can do, (restarting and checking your game each time) you'll simply need to find the broken mod/cc it and remove it
  • Mods & cc are well known to cause various in-game issues please check for updates to them / where you found them; do this also > after any sims update or adding a game pack,
  • Also the EA Forums do a regular post for broken mods / cc, & maintained by LuthienRising.

    I'd recommend the 50/50 or cull method to find any broken mods


      • Remove the mods from your folder to the desktop
      • Delete your localthumbcache file found in your TS4 folder [Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4]
      • Repair game, by right-clicking the cog near 'play'
      • Run the game, to see if it runs ok, now without any mods/cc
      • note: use a vanilla / new game for this process, don't run your old one
      • Now, if all went well, try transferring one cc folder at a time.This helps narrow down which is broken.
      • Trying the game each time, you do the process.. to see if it loads & plays as expected, without issues 
      • Before starting your game each time, also delete the localthumbcache file  from the sims 4 folder

    With each new patch, many mods are updated and will require checking up on them all..  More tips at my post here, here on maintaining your game, including more instructions on the 50/50 method.

 Hope this helps,

Sasha
