Lets me go into build mode but won’t let me play a certain house :(

I just finished decorating a new house for my sims and I really love how it turned out! I went to go play in the house with my sims but it says “failed to launch” and gave me an error code. It allows me to go back into build mode but i know it’s specifically with that house because all my other houses are playable. How do I fix this?

    Could you give me an error code number?

    If you have this house in the library, upload it to the Gallery under the name Test6. Give me your nickname on Origin also.
    For now :
    If you have any mods move mods folder to the desktop. Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder and fix the game in Origin.
    Origin/Library - right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
    If you don't have mods and CC delete this file and fix the game also. The game will create the same new file but without saved errors.
    Turn on the game to create a new, empty mods folder. Check if a game is working now without mods. Then copy from desktop your mods and CC and paste it in the new mods folder. First, paste script mods every time checking if the game is OK. Do the same do the same with CC but if you have a lot of this, try the 50/50 method
    If it does not work then we'll try another method later
    I don't work for EA

  • Hi, so the thing is my game runs perfectly fine other than the exception of this one house. The house does have cc in it but that’s what makes it look great in my opinion and I wouldn’t even care for the house without the cc. So is there any solution without having to get rid of the cc? I’ll send the error code in a moment

    I didn't write that you have to get rid of CC forever. I asked you to remove them from the game only during the test. If you will have access to this house without CC in the game, it will mean that some - may be a single CC is broken after the patch. You would then have to check on the site of the creator if there is a new updated version of it.
