How Can I Restore My Progress (Old Games) In My Sims 4 Game?
While I was playing the Sims 4 game (on my Mac laptop) with MODS & Scripts, the loading screen started to go extremely slow after downloading new Trays & Packages which was ALOT to download. Then I shut down my Mac completely, I logged back into Origin and turned on the Sims 4 game, and the loading screen was still going slow. Then I did a Google search on how to not let the loading screen go extremely slow again, so I found this one Youtube video explained on how to stop letting the Sims 4 loading screen go slow, but the person in the video was using a Windows system for this Sims 4 loading screen situation. I thought it would work for the same thing for Mac. The person in the video stated to copy the original Electronic Arts (for Sims 4) folder and paste it into a different place on what I have for Mac is "Finder" which is where all documents, downloads, etc. go on there. I pasted that original Electronic Arts (Sims 4 Folder) and pasted it to my "Desktop" section on Finder. Then after copying ALL of the MODS, MOD Scripts, and Tray items into the new Electronic Arts (Sims 4 Folder), as instructed by the person from the Youtube video, for the "Desktop" section on Finder, I turned on the Sims 4 Game and It was a whole new game as if I just bought it for the first time. Which is expected from the Youtube video demonstration. All of the MODS, MOD Scripts, and Tray Items were not showing up at the startup of the Sims 4 Game like it usually would. Even all of my CC homes, buildings, etc. were deleted on the Gallery at the start up on the Sims 4 game. Then I exited the game and turned it on again. FYI, The person from the Youtube video also stated to repair the game on Origin, which I did and it was an option to restart the Sims 4 Game, therefore I decided to do that. After I went back on the Sims 4 Game, it was still a whole new game again as if I bought it for the first time. I did enable the MODS on "Other" section for the Sims 4 settings and the MODS,MOD Scripts, and Tray Items still didn't show up. So now I have two Electronic Arts folders called - Electronic Arts old (which was the original folder for the Sims 4 game, when I first bought the Sims 4) and Electronic Arts (which is the new folder that I transferred all the MODS and Tray items there from the original folder). I also did copy all the MODS, MOD Scripts, and Tray items back to the Electronic Arts old folder (the original folder), and when I turned on the Sims 4 game again, it was still the same thing as if it was an entirely whole new game. I don't really have anything backup from my last Sims 4 Games, which was silly, I know. Lastly, I've seen something on Google that stated about the "saves" folder under the Electronic Arts Folder for Sims 4, but I only see Slot_00000002.save and Slot_00000002.save.ver0, and it still didn't change anything. The game still look fresh and new. What should I do?
