Re: Scrambled Icons

@Idiosyncratic53 This is usually UI cheats mod or tool (or other mods from TwistedMexi)

Make sure to also delete the localthumbcache file.

    I'm going to accept this as a solution since it solved the issue which was happening; the new update has caused a new problems however which still won't stop occuring even when updating mods to the newest editions and deleting the localthumbcache. Oh well.

    HI @Idiosyncratic53 

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • ConfigOverride, if you have your own configuration files.
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

  • I have the same problem, yet I don't have UI cheats or TwistedMexi's mods. I have no idea what to do!
