Can't open game due to corrupted mod files
Whenever I try to launch Sims 4 (through steam, origin, or desktop) I get an error message that it can't launch due to a corrupted file, and then it lists one of my mods. I delete the mod, and I get the same error message listing the next mod down the list. It does this with every mod and cc. The only way it works is if I remove the mod file entirely.
Things I've tried:
- Repairing the game
- Reinstalling the game
- Reinstalling Origin
- Deleting localthumbcache.package
- Deleting Origin's cache
- Reinstalling/repairing drivers
- Removing the mod folder, letting the game create a new one, and moving the individual subfolders into the new mod folder
- Creating all new subfolders in the new mod folder and moving the individual files into the new subfolders
I've attached a screenshot of the error message. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them, because this is a new development after completely reinstalling Windows 10 in an effort to get the game to launch at all after the EA App broke it. My game hasn't worked for two weeks and I'm exhausted.
@runicbinary Among the things you've tried, have you downloaded a fresh copy of a mod and added that to an otherwise clean Mods folder? (As in, the folder contains nothing but the resource.cfg.) If not, please try it now, and don't use any subfolders; just add the mod directly to Mods.
If this doesn't help, please let me know what antivirus you use.
