Update breaks game yet again..

The newest December update has completely broken the game. It seems to be specifically the new cozy celebrations event they're trying to do, as the issues didn't start until the pop-up came onto my game about the event. It's just like when they tried to do reaper rewards and that broke everyone(including my own)'s game. Why do they keep doing this? I understood reaper rewards at least a bit, as they were using it to promote their life & death expansion and the event had one or two rewards that were actually interesting and worth playing for, but from what I've seen, the new cozy celebrations event has two rewards only: a rug and a jacket, both looking like worse replicas of things we already have in-game. I guess I just have to wait until EA fixes the problem they caused again, like every update. Oh well..

 

  • I've seen this before and I'm pretty sure that UI Cheats turned out to be the problem. You need to update or remove that mod if you have it. You should also check whether any other mods you are using need to be updated or removed. 

    Cozy Celebrations has 13 rewards. I've already unlocked 4 of them and the rest will unlock over the next two weeks. 

    Reaper's Rewards did not break everyone's game. My game, with no mods or custom content, has worked normally through all of the events so far. 

    I don't recommend waiting for EA to fix problems that are caused by mods. It's up to the mod developers to do that.

    Well, it's working for most people, including me - and that's both alone and with my other mods in. There's something in what you're doing that's incomplete if it's broken alone for you. Try deleting it and redownloading it. Use this to make sure you're in the right folder: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/

    If you have UI issues with no mods, run a Game Repair and perhaps also do a factory reset: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/resetting-the-game-to-factory-settings-without-reinstalling/. Localthumbcache holds more cache than just mod/CC cache too. You can get more support with tech issues as a non-mod user at AHQ
