Re: ❗️ [CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 does not launch in macOS Sierra

Hi,

I'm having the same exact problem that you described, and I've found multiple places that say how to fix it. None of these fixes have worked for me but maybe they might work for you.

Here are a few things that other people have said helped fix this problem...

1.   Make sure Origin is disabled in game: you can do this by opening Origin, going to Application settings, Origin in game, and turning it off.

2.   Try changing fullscreen from 1 to 0 in Options.ini: do this by going into Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4 > Options.ini, and then scroll down to fullscreen, delete the one, and add a zero. (you can open Options.ini with Text Editor)

3.   If nothing else works, try removing the Sims 4 folder from your Electronic Arts folder and placing it on your desktop. Once you have done this try launching your game. The sims will automatically regenerate a new sims 4 folder. If this works you will have to create a new family and play for a few minutes before moving the saves from your old sims 4 folder into the new one.

Just a reminder, I am a player like you and can't guarantee that these fixes will work (they didn't for me, but they did for m=some other people.)
