Missing Traits

I apologize if this has been covered, but my game is very broken. When I try to create a new character, the Sim traits have gone *poof*. I am sorry for that description unless you have a better one.

Another problem is the game loaded the mod, but the mod won't activate. However, let's take care of the top problem first.

I guess this isn't the place to attach Save files, as the writer keeps telling me it's an unsupported file.

  • @Gamer53186  When you say "the mod won't activate," what do you mean: you enable mods but the setting reverts to disabled, or you enable mods and they stay enabled but your mods won't show up, or something else?

    The traits panel not showing in CAS is a known issue.  Mods can cause it, so please test with no mods or custom content at all: move the entire Mods folder to the desktop and delete localthumbacache.package.  If you still don't see the CAS traits, please post in this master bug thread:

    You could upload a save file if you wanted, but there's no need at this point, at least not for the issues you've described.
