Re: [MOD RELATED] Icons are blank squares/ UI Glitching

I checked the list and I don't think I have any of the mods that are broken/outdated in that list. Is there anything else I can do?

    @wannnabefairy @Msant71  Did you find a Mod that was causing your issue? I wondered, if you did, if you could share the name of it, since to me the screenshot you shared of your issue looks a lot like @Lehlonza's screenshot! 

    @Msant71 Did you also remove the localthumbcache.package file in your “The Sims 4” folder? It's possible you have a cached-in glitch. If the issue wasn't there before adding the new Mod, and if this issue didn't coincide with a patch/update, it may be worth pursuing the new Mod's effects further. If it turns out that removing the new Mod and cache file doesn't fix it, you could try a game repair and then if the issue persists test your other Mods/CC (directions for those options in spoiler tag):
    Also... There is a list of known broken Mods at this link: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/1006205/broken-updated-mods-cc-jan-31-2023-patch/p1

    How to run a game repair:
    • Open Origin, click ‘Game Library’ then right-click Sims 4 > Repair Game
    • Let it run until it has completed all repairs. It will do the base game first, then run through each of your DLCs (Expansion Packs, Game Packs, Stuff Packs and Kits).

    How to test your other Mods/CC:
    Try moving the Mods folder from your "The Sims 4" folder [Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4] to your desktop (save it for reference) and delete the localthumbcache.package file in your “The Sims 4” folder. Then check in a new game save to see if this issue is still occurring. You can test without saving in order to identify which CC/Mods are causing the issue, then remove or add updated version(s) of the Mod/CC causing the issue.
