I apologize if I am posting in the wrong area or something, I'm not really familiar with the website.
My laptop is:
Macbook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016)
Processor: 2 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 8GB
Graphics: Intel Iris Graphics 540 1536 MB
Running: MacOS High Sierra ver. 10.13
Game: Sims 4 + City Life EP
I only noticed this issue recently so I can't tell for sure when it might have started. I first noticed in late November after my game had to update, and after that it just wouldn't work.
Problem: Everything loads fine. CAS works fine. As soon as I try to play the actual game (i.e. playing a household), it will sort of load however 1. there is a red border outline 2. there are no bottom controls (no play, pause, needs, Sim icons, etc). I attached a screenshot of my error. (After waiting a little bit, the red border goes away. The Sim moves, I can seem to move the camera, however I can't make the Sim actually do anything. The top controls are essentially useless too, none of them work, I always have to end up force-quitting.)
What I've tried: 1. Updating (which honestly seems to be the cause of my issues lol) 2. Repairing 3. Removing all recent mods from the past 2-3 months 4. Starting game in Offline mode
I haven't tried starting with an empty Mods folder yet; I know I should lol.
If someone could help or has any ideas what could be wrong, I'd really really appreciate it! I finally have time to play and I'm sad that the game won't work.. probably my fault with my buttload of CC but it's worked before just fine ☹️
edit: tried disabling mods, looks like it's the mods that are the culprit... again. Removed all game mods, recent CC and that hasn't solved it. I blame this new update, before that everything was working fine... If anyone has this problem and finds the offending CC, let me know! ☹️
I would blame the CC/Mod creators for not updating their content to be compatible with the most recent patch 🙂 You will have to play without the CC until it is updated.
