Game Crashing when Loading Saves

I can't seem to load any of my previous saved games, or create new ones without my game crashing. Create-a-sim works fine, as does the initial loading screen and main menu, it even lets me get so far as house selection. Whenever I click the play button, however, and try to load the actual game, it displays the loading screen for a few seconds, then my game freezes and the music skips, and then it crashes. This seems to have come as a result of the latest update, as I just played the game yesterday and it worked fine. I have a great many mods installed, so I'm not sure if that's apart of the problem. Does anyone have any advice? I've attached a copy of my crash report here, didn't make any sense to me but it might help someone else.

    Most mods and a lot of CC after today's patch are no longer compatible with the game.
    1. Move the mods folder to the desktop.
    2. Find and delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder. Delete also all folders with the word "cache" in the name.
    3. Fix the game in Origin.
    Origin/Library - right-click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
    You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.
    4. Turn on the game to create a new, empty mods folder and check if the game is working now properly without mods
    5. Check if there are new updated versions of the mods and CC you are using.
    Then copy from desktop your mods and CC and paste it in the new mods folder. First, paste script mods one by one every time checking if the game is OK.
    Do the same with CC but if you have a lot of this, try the 50/50 method. divide your CC into smaller batches for example 50 pieces in one subfolder and check these subfolders one by one)

    Same here my last save is load (modded) fine but in fact I have a  save file where I always play without mods and wanted to load this save (because of patch day ) and CTD. I have no idea what is the problem.
