Needing some help if anyone knows: I opened up my computer today to hop on TS4 only to find my game was un-downloaded. I redownloaded and then hopped on and my family I was playing with was missing 4 Sims. I tried removing my mods, restarting/repairing and trying another save with no luck. I sometimes can see the whole family in the preview but then just the dad and son once the house loads. I finally realized that it's my vampire sims that are missing but all my packs ARE downloaded.Any ideas? I am getting a popup when the family loads saying something in CAS was removed/is no longer available.

@LlonessRampant Which packs are you missing? Does the EA App think they're owned and installed? You can check in your game library, under Sims 4 > Manage > Manage add-ons. Please also let me know whether any of your owned packs are in fact loading in-game. To see what is and isn't loading, try filtering CAS or Build/Buy by pack. The ones that aren't installed will be unselectable.

Everything seems to be loading just two ofy families I was playing have the vampire sims missing. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled again, it's recognizing all of my packs but I can't get my missing sims back. The house is in the vampire town and nothing else she's to be glitching. I can see the missing sims in the family selection before I load the house but once it loads they're all missing and aren't in the relationship profile any longer. Since one toddler that was left behind is human I can see the vampire mom in the family tree but all the others don't show up. ResetSim can't locate them either

@LlonessRampant Try recovering one of the backup saves. You might have to go a few versions back. https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/recover-backup-save-game/

I've tried with no luck, they're still missing even from days ago. I appreciate the effort!

@LlonessRampant Does it help to evict the household and place them back in their house, or a different one? Other than that, are you willing to use a mod to try to fix this? I don't know for sure that it would help, but there are certainly ways to experiment.

@LlonessRampant Are you guy using the Occult stabilizator ?

That mod is outdated and seems to cause issues with occults being removed from saves.

Once they are removed and you saved, all you can do is to revert to an older save game.

No, I did have one where some sims could be multiple occults and I think maybe the two sims missing had been vampire and spellcaster at one point so maybe that's it and their vampire babies were then corrupted too? I have since been clearing out all my mods and trying to start fresh within the same world. Thanks for your input!

@LlonessRampant Being multiple occults is possible only with mods. See Broken/Updated Mods & CC for the one from TwelfthDoctor1 that's been updated for causing this error, and be sure to read the new instructions for it.

@323af1ac091672d9 Disappearing Vampires is caused by an outdated hybrid occult mod. See Broken/Updated Mods & CC for the one from TwelfthDoctor1 that's been updated for causing this error, and be sure to read the new instructions for it.

Thank you~ I use it so infrequently in game that I hadn't thought about it. I'll dig into the link you sent.

Happy to report my sims are back after deleting the Hybrid/Ice Cream mod. Yayy!! Still getting some other errors after the latest update but that was the biggest stress.

All of my vampire sims are missing too, I haven no clue what to do. Even when I try put them in different worlds they still disappear. And its not just my families either its also the townies from the vampire world.

@thesimmerc Do you have any hybrid occult mods? You will need to remove or update those and then load an earlier version of your save from before they were deleted.
