Realm of magic bugs -> pratical magic not working -> sellers absent

Hey, I've been having some issues that I've recently noticed.

So it's been long since I've last played with a spellcaster sims which is why I can't really point out when those two issues started happening exactly, but today after making my sims I realized he couldn't learn practical magic. Like, the action is there, and I can type it same as for for the two other magic options, but he will just reenact the "learning" animation for in-game hours without ever having the pop-up of "hey [sims] learned this spell." Which is weird cause the two other magics work with no issue. 

Then I made my sims go to the magic realm because I wanted to test if he could learn practical magic through a grimoire, but bada-beem bada-boom, none of the magical sellers are present, they're not even running around the realm, they're just completely absent, and I've waited hours and came back during different days but they just won't show up. 

Then I made my sims go back home, and went through the debug menu to force one of the practical grimoire magic into the house, and i discovered there were three versions of each one of the magical spellbook but as if two of them came through a mod, issue here is I absolutely don't remember which mod that could be and going through my mod folder by sorting it out would probably take me 3 freaking days (which I don't have.)

At least after making my sims read the book, I realized he can in fact learn practical magic, but he can only do it through grimoires which kinda kill the wole immersivity of the game if I have to go through teh debug menu to buy all of them.  

I was wondering if anyone had an idea of which specific mods are causing this ? (because there is definitely multiple having a run for it). That could help me with cleaning out my game, thanks in advance for your help and time !

(I put some pictures below in case it could help)

  • gaby-guillemot​ Well, whether you have the time or not, you are going to have to make the time to go through your mods and find whatever is causing the problem.  There is no quick and easy way around it if you have a lot of stuff.  But it might not be as hard to find the offending file as you think either since I gather from what you've said, the game is working more or less correctly except for things related to magic.  I doubt you have that many mods for that and they should be fairly easy to pick out by the file names when you look at the mod folder contents.  Hopefully, you'll find them and get them updated or removed and be back to playing before you know it.

    Hope this helps.
