Missing mods folder with all my CC

Earlier today my game was refusing to start so I moved my mods folder out on to the desktop while I updated and repaired the game through origin. When I was done I moved the mods folder back in and started up the game to find all of my cc missing (mods & scripts are enabled, restarted the game a couple of times). Wasn't too bothered but then I looked at the mods folder and it was completely empty apart from the resource file. The way it seems to me is that the game replaced my mods folder with a new one on the startup (It's not in the bin). Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to get it back? Really don't feel like redownloading almost 3000 items and the game is just bland without it :/

    Could you search your hard drive to see if there's another mods folder somewhere ?

  • I have already searched everything, nothing shows up except for my now empty mods folder.

  • im not seeing a resolution to this issue. The same happened to me. I know for a fact I didnt delete anything i just drug folder from desktop to its usual location and started game and it showed no custom content on my sims so i looked at folder and there is nothing in it just like the last person. and i also i have 2 folders now both empty. now when i search for something that is CC it pulls up someof them and they all say shortcut files but i get an error when i ty to find their location telling me the source file that goes to the shrtcut has been moved and may not work...but no way to tell me where it was moved to. I dont understand what happended at all. I have moved that folder tones of times and put it back with no issue.

  • I actually had this same problem, in the Sims 4 files, there's one called "saves" and in that file you should find one also called "mods". I copied the mods over to my new mods folder then slowly removed the new mods until I found the one stopping the game, and that seemed to fix it.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.
