Your game is modded. Moving to the Game &amp; Mod issues forum for further help. To start with, follow these steps to launch a new clean game and try to narrow down the issue - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612394#M163

@BluebellfloraYes, but I have tried playing without mods (moved sims 4 folder out of documents so I got empty game) and it was still crashing as it was with mods. Also done everything from the link you've sent me. It was the first thing I've found.

@jjbb04  How long did you play a new save for in the clean game before it crashed?Did you re-enable vsync in the new game?There really is no need to disable Retina display.

I played for about a day (around 8 hours) with breaks. I did enable Retina display today after looking up more about the topic and it had no effect. I have also noticed that game crashes only in live mode (never in build) after random sims (not from household) are trying to execute random (usually different, not the same one always, different every time) animations. MCCC caught that (i think) in the last exception from yesterday.&nbsp;Last exception html file on Google Drive cuz I can't attach html files here and converting to pdf breaks the file completely.

@jjbb04  If you’re using MCCC then your game is modded.
