    Charivarie  Your dxdiag doesn't contain any Sims 4 errors, which wouldn't be surprising if the problem is in fact Avira.  (Antivirus-related issues often don't cause a Windows error.)  The fastest way to test is to disable Avira entirely and try again to play.  As long as you don't do anything else at the same time, your computer should be safe, and you can reenable it afterwards.

    If this helps, set exceptions for TS4_x64, TS4_DX9_x64, and TS4_Launcher_x64; or the entire Bin folder they're in.  Set an exception for EADesktop.exe as well.

    If this doesn't help, please test a new save, for comparison's sake, and remove your Mods folder for the test.  The point is to see whether this is a global issue or limited to your main save.
