Re: Sims 4 Cats and Dogs eating glitch

HI @LaurSim500

did you also delete your localthumbcache ? It's cause by faulty cc sofas and benches to be specific 

You can batch fix all your cc with the Sims4Studio so it should work again.

    The localthumbnail file is a cache file that you can find in documents. It accumulates a lot of stuff over time and should be deleted from time to time, especially when removing mods.

    S4Studio is a third party tool that can help with creating/fixing custom content. Just google it for more info

    Hi @LaurSim500

    are you sure all your cc and mods are removed ? Sometimes the game uses a different folder than you think.

    When you click on the list of mods in your game options, is it empty ?

    HI @LaurSim500

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
