I tried to play the sims for and it was working great! CAS works perfectly, but when i try to actually play with the sims, they either cancel all of the things i tell them to do or the game abruptly exits and a notification that says "Breakpoint" and a bunch of numbers pops up. I took out all of my mods that either BE told me were broken or the ones that i knew for a fact were outdated and when i tried again it still wasnt working. I dont know what to do.

@shoobieloobie Please try playing in a clean user folder. Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content. Don't add anything to it yet; just see whether you can start a new save and play in live mode for a bit.
If the game crashes again, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files and make a backup.
After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.
Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
