UI Last Exception issue since the new update

After updating everytime I play if I try to open my inventory or go into build mode or CAS the game stops working. In the case of the inventory it flashes open and if I keep clicking eventually it stays open, but all the buttons are labeled 'Wwwwwwww'. Then if I try to click any button on the UI it doesn't work. I do use mods so I updated all of those but it was still an issue, deleted all my script mods and it's still an issue (doesn't happen with no mods as far as I could tell when I tested it). I tried a new save and it was an issue. I now tried deleting my local thumb cache and then repairing my game. Still an issue. Please help I'm losing the plot

  • Just want to check, you say you updated your mods.  Downloading them fresh is not the same as downloading updated mods.  Were ALL of them already confirmed updated and/or compatible?  If the issue doesn't happen without mods, then it's something not working with the mods.  You can try the 50/50 method to narrow it down.  And I know for a fact a bunch of a UI mods are currently broken (though the creators all seem to be working diligently to update them in a timely manner).  There are still a lot of mods out there that haven't been updated, and even some that have, there are newer updates and need to be redownloaded.

    Yeah I did check they were all updated especially after I started having issues. I usually have UI cheats and more columns installed, but I've gotten rid of them while trying to fix this. Thanks for responding! I'll try the 50/50 method today (Been dreading it)

    I did 50/50 method and it was the 1pancake color slider mod for anyone else having this issue...

    That mod has been listed as updated as of 4 July.  If you had already tried that version, it might be beneficial if you let the creator know via comment at where you downloaded it. Happy simming!
