Re: sims 4 error code 123

I backed up my game and restarted it without any mods or anything. I wasn't getting the error code 123 anymore and I was able to play my game perfectly fine, until I tried making a retail store and anything from the GTW pack wouldn't place and would say either "invalid object definition" or something like "item is missing original footprint". Half of my dine out items only show up in build mode as red X's, too.

So now that I know the error code 123 is due to my cc or something with my old saves, I still don't know whats causing everything with "invalid object definition".

Thank you for your help with the error code though!

@mintedsims Did you repair the game as well ?

Repairing hadn't been working, so I started looking at what people did for similar error codes and ended up making a backup of my game, and then uninstalling and reinstalling it, which worked like a charm! I even tested all of my cc and mods too and none of them were causing any issues anymore either.
Thank you for all your help!

@mintedsims Glad to hear you got it fixed. Maybe GTW didn't fully install, leading to issues.

When you unistall and ruin it are your files still going to be there? If not which order do you put them back in?

@jaxjag08 The suggestion is not to uninstall the game but to reset your user data folder, which is much simpler. Crinrict already described it above.

It's best to add mods first and test, then custom content, and then the contents of the saves and Tray folders if everything else works. If you run into problems, you should try to fix those before you add your saves back in.
