This has been happening to me too for the last couple of days. I have restarted my computer, updated origin, repaired the game, set up a new folder and tried taking out all of my script mods. The only thing I haven’t tried is removing my cc but when I did that the game wasn’t loading at all. Here is my last crash report. I’m grateful for any help! Thanks!

Your game is modded. Follow these steps to launch a new clean game and try to narrow down the issue - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612394#M163

Have you had any luck? I'm having the same bad_access_sigsegv crash error. Repaired, took mods out, etc. I can't play the game more than 30 mins without it crashing.
