Idk how this worked, but I figured it out. I ended up going to my ArcControl > Games > Sims4 > Turned off Global Settings > and then changed my gome compatibility to Basic. now it starts up.
SamwellPlays I'm not completely sure from your description whether you've tried playing in a clean user folder, not just a reset of your user files but testing without any previous data. If not, please do so now. Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. When you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content. (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you've moved but temporarily unread by the game.) Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just start a new save and see how it runs, that is if you can get that far.
If that doesn't or didn't help, please provide a dxdiag. Click Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop. From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
here. I already did a clean folder twice just to be sure too.
