Sims 4 on SSD / Mods problem
Hi everyone!
Due to running low on disk space I decided to take the plunge and install Sims 4 for Mac on an external SSD (Samsung T5).
I wanted to have ALL the game files on the SSD, not just the games itself, so I created a new user on my Mac, to be used specifically for Sims 4, and set it up so that this user has the SSD as the default storage/home directory. As far as I understood, this is the only way to allow ALL game data to be stored externally.
The problem I have now, is the game refuses to run with any mods. It runs perfectly fine 'vanilla', but as soon as I load any mod in, it throws the "Cannot start because game data is missing or damaged"-error.
I tried running the game on my other user (the admin user) and it worked loading it up with the test mod I was using (game itself is installed on the SSD but placing the mod in the automatically created EA folder) but as soon as went on to the other user and put the mod in the Mods folder on the SSD, it refuses to start again.
Any ideas why this is happening/not working?
