Hi, something strange is happening to my game, i've got cc and it always worked but yesterday the game didn't charge I mean it opened and the ea thing appeared but when the sims 4 logo apure¡red it didm't charge anymore, it just was there charging, then I erased all my cc and it worked, so I thought it was just a bug for that day, so today I downloaded new cc and I placed them in the mods folder, and then it din't work again. I am sure its not the cc because I download it from a fríen of mine's webpage so they aren't corruptos or with viruses. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING, PLEASE HELP ME!!

Helo @Ania_Ania
Move your whole mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item or batch in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
By doing this, you can test to see if the cc is the cause and if so, which ccc.

Go to this link thread, and half way down the page there will a picture of a drive with an arrow on it . Press that and download the file.That is a resource.cfg file that you can download and place in your mods folder if there isn't one already there. You will need to take the file out of the zipped file and place it into the mods folder.

I have already tried the download 3 times and it doesn't work

Hello
Try doing this
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then back the "options.ini" or "options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music "folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders that have the same name.
Don't put back the old mods folder, The new mods folder should have the resource.cfg file in it

If the issues remain, try doing what is suggested in this post

I have just tried that and the comment you suggested, but it's still not working. I have tried downloading it, moving the folder and I've tried pasting the code into the one I downloaded, but it's still not working and I can't understand why?

You need to create a new file in notepad and paste the code into it.

What isn't working? Is it that mods/cc aren't appearing in the game?

If that is what is not working, go to game options and check that the " enable custom content and mods" button is ticked, which is found in :
Options | Other | Enable Custom Content and Mods. If it isn't ticked, do that.Also check that the script mods allowed button is ticked as well. Exit the game. Then go back into the game again and see if the cc appears then .

@caitlinxox10 When you restart the game, it should be making a new resource.cfg file in the Mods folder. First, make sure that you do NOT have the folder called Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 synced to any online filesaving services, such as OneDrive.

yes they are both ticked and my cc still does not appear

Hello
I am just checking. Make sure that you have extracted the package files out of the zipped folder or the rar file, if they come in zipped or rar formats,
Try placing the package files directly into the mods folder without being in sub folders.
Check that the files are for sims 4, and not for sims 2 or 3.
Try downloading cc from a different site to where you downloaded your current cc from, and see if that appears.

Hello
Is the resource.cfg file that you created, in your mods folder ? Or is the one that you downloaded there?
If it is, is the issue that your cc/mods are not appearing ?

no my reasource is missing

Try adding in to the mods folder either the resource.cfg file that you downloaded or the one that you created. Then test to see if the issue remains. The file should remain in the folder and not disappear

Also, try doing what I said in the earlier post, if you haven't already done it

Hello
Your sims 4 game is linked to your origin account. After uninstalling Sims 4, log into origin using the same account that you used to first register the game and packs , then click on the Games Library section, click on the sims 4 picture, then download/install it there. Then click the extra content button that is half way down the page. That will take you to a screen that shows you what game packs, stuff packs and eps you own. You can then download/install them there.
The games should though start reinstalling automatically, if you have the option in origin settings to keep your game uptodate.
Make a back up copy of your Sims 4 folder before uninstalling , and place it on an external drive, in case issues arise.
