Crashing after Cottage Living Update

Hi! My game is suddenly crashing randomly after the Cottage Living update ...

It has never ever crashed before this update and I don't know what to do! I use mods but they are all updated and working fine :-(

Here is the crash message

    I'm having this problem, too. I cleared caches, uninstalled and reinstalled Origin and then the game. Still crashed. And I didn't have my mods folder even in the library since I had just reinstalled it. I didn't think it was that anyway, since I hadn't added anything since before I was last able to open the game just after the update. Even updated my own computer and turned off Origin in game settings. The initial Sims 4 blue screen pops up, but it crashes right after the loading screen starts the plumbob spinning. đŸ˜ž

    @andrewstegmann I'm having the same issue. It works fine if I delete the Sims 4 folder and start fresh. I combed through my mods folder for three days and I had it loading to the menu fine but as soon as I opened the game the next time it crashed. As soon as I get the problem report from apple it's over. The game doesn't load regardless of whether or not my mods folder is empty.

    I am also getting a report from Apple when I launch the game, but I'm not sure if thats useful.

    @QuaylinSims @shamrockshake05

    Thanks both, really helpful 🙂

    @shamrockshake05 your lastCrash is still showing you have mods installed. Can you please try a new clean game by moving the Sims 4 folder to the desktop. Which Mac do you have? The GPU is unknown, is it an M1 Mac?

    @QuaylinSims could you create a new user account on your Mac and see if you can play the game in that account? No need to reinstall the game, just launch Origin, login and launch the game from the Origin games library.

    The game does seem to work after I start clean, I would assume it's an issue with one of my mods? My problem is that once my game crashes, It continues to crash and not go past the first loading screen until I take out my whole Sims 4 folder and repair the game. I noticed that it still crashes even if I remove just the mods folder which has never happened before.

    And yes, I have the Macbook Air 2020 with the M1 chip.
