My Sims 4 Game Is Completely Messed Up!!!

So I recently decided to start over with my Sims 4 CC.. I got rid of ALL the old CC. Didn’t delete.. But I removed it  all from my game & created a whole new Mods Folder. When I opened my game, I went to my gallery and ALL my households and lots were gone, I don’t know what happened to them and I don’t know how to get them back. Also, when I tried to add all of my build mode CC, and opened up my game, it said that a bunch of times were removed, and the build mode CC doesn’t even show up in my game. This all happened after I decided to update my game. I’m not sure what’s going on but if anyone knows anything PLEASE HELP!! It’s very frustrating.

    @justbricause   Did you properly recreate the mods folder? Do you have a Resource.cfg file in the mods folder? You probably removed something that is needed. Did you make a copy of your user data BEFORE you started deleting things? If you just deleted files, those files should be able to get restored. It is hard to say what cc does to the game to get it to work as EA has no control over cc. You would have to post what you deleted and the order inb which is was deleted to begin to guess what happened as you are dealing with data that is not part of the game. The only thing I can suggest is the add back what you can (if you can). and see if you can get a stable game again.

    I do have a Resource.cfg file in the folder, but I did not make a copy of my user data before I got rid of the CC. While downloading cc I got a couple lots and seen that they had to go in the tray folder, I put them there and when I did I had stuff in there already. When I went back to get rid of it I deleted everything in the tray folder, and later on did research and someone said that you should not delete anything in the tray folder. I’m not sure if this is why everything is messed up. But I think it’s too late to get the files back. At this point I’m just ready to start completely over. Do you know if things will go back to normal if I uninstall the game and start completely over? 


    thanks

    Your tray folder contains all your lots and all your Sims. Since you deleted everything you can not play any of your current saves but will have to start a new game. Rightclick the game in Origin and select repair.

    In the future if you have downloaded a lot that you later want to delete open your library and delete it from there. That will get rid of all relevant files.

    Thank you for your response. As for the build mode cc issue, do you know what could be causing this? All other cc is okay. But when I download new build mode cc and try to put it into my game, the old build mode cc continues to show up and the new cc does not.
