Wondering once infants is here what will happen to CAS cc? I don’t have any CAS cc for children and under, only teen and above mostly clothes, haircuts and facial hair I doubt all of cc creators will update their CAS cc so I’m worried Cuz I’m not updating if they break CAS cc..

@graventhe this is a major update that is going to break a large majority of mods and cc. Since they're adding a whole new lifestage it's pretty likely some, if not all, of your cas cc will break. Just remember to copy your entire Sims 4 folder to your computer's desktop or other drive before you update. If you don't have enough disk space just copy your mods, saves & tray folders; also your custom music folder if you put custom music in.

We don't know for sure exactly what will break, but I wouldn't be surprised if large amounts of CAS cc needs updating. Usually within a week or two, Sims 4 Studio updates with a batch fixer that will do the necessary updates to get CC (and probably also a lot of B/B) working. This will let you keep a lot of CC usable if the modder no longer updates their stuff.

Definitely pull your mods folder out before updating, installing the new pack and playing your game. Don't just copy it then play your game while hoping for the best outcome. This is a huge base game update and GT is introducing some features we have never experienced before. We have no idea what is going to be affected and playing with broken mods, CAS CC, and B/B CC can corrupt your game saves under certain conditions. If you don't use mods or CC, you don't need to worry about what will happen to your game except for whatever new glitches and bugs that may come along for the ride. Since we won't see GT being played with other packs, we don't know if there will be compatibility issues to deal with. We just don't know what to expect until we play it. Bienchen83 posted a list of her mods she believes will be broken once the game is updated. Here is the link if you would like to read it. https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/953198/mods-by-bienchen83-sims4me-at-deichschaf-sims-alphabetical-list#latest. She isn't sure if there will be more broken ones. But she is quite certain the ones on her list will need to be updated. Just play it safe and make a copy of your entire Sims4 folder. Especially if you created a new save or Sims for GT. It takes only a few minutes to do this, and it could save you from losing corrupted saves and starting over from scratch. Which is a real bummer. I have been rebuilding my entire game since my other laptop died and I lost everything. I'd hate to see anyone go through that when we have been looking forward to this update and EP for years.

I’m hopeful that not too much breaks, CAS-wise. After all, a good amount of pre-toddler CAS cc seems to still work.

so all the wrench mods will break and the ui extender and mcc

Eyes are the worst I'm seeing all my cc is showing up as alien eyes or are very bright on infants hopefully I can find updated eyes from the cc I'm using or I'm going to have to replace all my Sims eye color to new updated cc to fix this issue but besides this not having issues with anything else.

After some testing, it turns out that it's not quite the mod apocalypse I was fearing. The sim below is basically "Lady CC": her eye colour and hair and many of her clothes are cc, I used a height mod to make her slightly taller than most sims, and none of it is causing any problems.

I should mention, though, that her eyes are just a darker shade of blue that I made, not a default eye colour replacement. I don't use replacement mods, so I can't say anything about those.

I also played around with toddlers and infants in CAS, my cc for toddlers is still there and working fine. For infants I don't have anything yet, obviously, but no issues either. So I think regular cc that doesn't alter already existing things shouldn't be affected by the update.

They are implementing some kind of change to the way hair colours work, but hopefully it won’t affect cc hairs too much.

what change ? can you elaborate ?

I don’t know, I’m afraid. It’s just that they mentioned on the live stream when showing the head scarf and changing the hair colour that they had “used their new tech” for this - time stamp around 48:08 - so it sounded as if something was going to change, maybe in terms of how colour choice works? But I haven’t seen anyone mention anything after the patch, so maybe nothing changed anyway ??‍♀️
