Testers?

Completely agree, I'm praying the creators are able to fix the issues and they don't opt to use the new EA Marketplace. I'd much rather support creators via their chosen platforms to showcase work such as Patreon etc over using marketplace where the creators get 30% and EA gets 70% - allegedley.

I simply will not be playing the game until this is fixed. In fact, this is the only reason I bought and installed the game, to use CC. That's the main appeal of Sims as a whole for me. Even buying expansion packs that cost as much as entire AAA games on Steam made it worth it because of CC.

If this never gets fixed, then I will simply feel swindled out of my money, as I was promised something that now isn't available. It feels like fraud.

This is the first time I'm even writing in Community, it is that big of deal. I sincerely hope they realize it.

yeah, i just opened mine and nothing is working on my end either :( But i think the creators of the mods and cc will fix it. I just HOPE they dont have to put the mods on the marketplace for them to work. Mods/cc is the only reason the game is still enjoyable. If they ban the mods they really must have lost their marbles :DD

Nothing of mine is working :( literally nothing, I'm gutted. I did see on Sims discord they are rolling out an update to fix these mods/cc issues but I'll believe it when I see it!!

Wait.. Are yoz telling me my WW, Basemental etc. would not work anymore? :O

I never thought in a million years that EA would EVER make me hate playing The Sims 4. But yet, that day has come. I have spent over a thousand hours creating my forever save just to have it snatched away with all of my cc that I can't play without. Do they know Karma is so real and they get what they deserve!!!!

I feel a little better getting a piece of what I would like to say out!!!

Ruined because of EA’s greedy money grabbing scheme. I am so disappointed. The day you introduce your new marketplace, all of the free mods/cc we have installed, just stops working? We can see right through you. I will never spend a penny on your marketplace, I will never support you again by buying a pack, you have ruined my favourite game on earth. GREEDY.

Hiiiiiiii :D you don't know me because im a "consumer" which, to you, is basically walking around "profit" you've convinced yourself you're entitled to. While i'd love to take it to the base n make out all hot wet and sloppy while you tell me how much you don't but sorta do need my money, I think we should talk first...
So: Aside from lying to save face, and doing totally bad at it too by the way! you're also just.. plain incapable? of like.. literally anything that isn't playing in people's face to get to their money? 
A list of things paid employees can't do but individuals with a college education can:
turn a 1 to a 0 in a .ini file.
Folder pathing.
Making LITERALLY anything.
reducing polygon count.
Texture scaling.

AND MUCH MUCH MORE, But the biggest insult of it all?? People use your game to make a BETTER game. Because you KNEW how incapable your staff were especially after the real talent left or accepted, you know, REAL jobs?? 
You kinda NEED this buyout that badly?? 10+ years of bare minimum and relying on unfamiliar with your tactics consumers only got you ten years??? embarrassing, but never, not once surprising. Rest in garbage with the rest of trash bozo, this is reaking of end of service, and after losing my original account to your poorly handled origin to EA handover which cost me over £300 in dlc i can never get back. I will dedicate the rest of my days to ensuring people can access this over priced bloat ware for FREE. You are such a detached, performative, "it's identity to pronouns! COMMUNITY!" **bleep** business that all this behavior is so over compensating when all you had to do was make even just decent content is genuinely a laughable affair. Y'all are literally the worst, most annoying company to ever, EVER exist, you treat letting your **bleep** hang out like it's a contest. 

Agree. This is ridiculous and shameful on all levels..... I've said this already, but I WILL be saying it again because I am that infuriated.... THIS IS GARBAGE. A big part of the issue for me as well, is that not only did mods + CC break, my game actually just broke. As game developers, you should never have base functions of your game break for an update.

And also, this "Marketplace" puts CC behind a paywall which is absolutely ridiculous..... How are you going to "move away" from paid packs just to launch another paywall project? And looking at the prices for "Moola".... what is the point if at the end of the day, to get up to the same level of added content from an expansion pack, you will end up paying up to the same amount either way?? This is just a cash-grab and a reframing of the packs in a "prettier" wrapping which is insulting.

This is shameful all around. It's actually impressive they've managed to bring an update to their game that completely breaks all mods + CC and game function 😂😂😂

What a joke.
