Sims 4 crashing Mac iOS catalina
Hi, this is my first time using this forum so I’m not sure if anyone can help but my Sims 4 keep crashing on my Mac. I’ve tried to repair the game and I’ve removed broken mods but after 30/40 minutes...

@Bluebellflora Hi!! I just did as you said and it appears to work just fine when played on a new account!

Great! Maybe something else you have running, either an app or maybe a background process, is interfering and causing the crash in the other account. Or it could just be the clean Sims 4 folder. You could move your whole Sims 4 folder to the desktop in your usual user account and see if the game crashes, not sure you tried that?- @Bluebellflora Hi! I just tried moving the folder to the desktop and I ran the game completely new and free of Mods and Saved games and it seems to be working so far, no sudden crashes, so maybe there’s a mod somewhere causing problems? I thought I had taken out all the broken ones but maybe there’s another one that I’ve missed?
- @andreaim24 Hi, I'm barging in (and I don't have Catalina) but I do have a Mac though, and I had the same crashing issue and it was definitely a faulty mod. An adult one per se, so if you have one in your game you might want to look for the newest update. The one the modder made after the patch didn't work and according to a lot of gamers, this is what caused the game to crash. He fixed it (though I haven't tested it yet with it when I removed the broken one, the game worked) ^_^
@BluebellfloraI have tried running the game with mods but not the save files and it hasn't crashed so far so i think that the problem has to do with a corrupted save file. How could i find the faulty one?
Which ever save you load when you play the game may be the corrupted one.
Launch the game and click on load game then hover over one of the households to see the file path:
