Re: [CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 Unable to Start, Game Data Missing or Damaged

Hello! I'm having an issue loading my Sims 4 game at all... When I go to load it, I get the pop-up in the image.

I've tried a few things like verifying file integrity and mod managers, but sadly it's not working for me. I have over 35k mods (yes, i know, a lot-) and when I disable my mods, the game will load, so I'm very sure it's a mod. Wondering if anyone can confirm having the same issue before, and if you have any tips on fixing this? I've heard about the 50/50 thing for your mods folder, but I suppose I'm looking for any alternatives, or really just any help in general. Thank you!

    I am having the same issue but it also seems many others are. Maybe it was the most recent update. I have tried everything

    Found the mod that was breaking my game! May not be the same for everyone, but for me it was [BR] Melanie_Leather_Coat

    Finally... I'm saved, it was 100% one of my mods that broke, and the game wasn't detecting that it was corrupted, so would just pop up with that error code. A very long and tedious process, but I can finally enjoy my sims again (for now.)

    You should download a mod (can't remember the name but I have it) that checks sims 4 mods and tells you which ones are broken. The pop-ups when it finds something that's broken are annoying but it works and will help you. If you already downloaded it then ignore this.
