Re: [Solved] Sims 4 : Custom Content Not Showing After Update

I am having a very similiar situation. I downloaded the Prince Diamond and Sapphire package from here <removed link. Please do not link to cc and mods sites at AHQ, it's against the TOS> and everything shows up except for the shirts of both Diamond and Sapphire. They just aren't there, not when when I put the custom content filter into the shirts... but they still show in my mods folder...

I am absolutely baffled and cannot seem to figure out what is wrong. Anyone maybe have a clue what the problem may be?

    Could it be it's outdated? Try contacting the maker of the CC to see if they might be able to help.

    I tried over two weeks ago, not a peep from the creator.

    It sounds like it's a broken CC, I'm scared you won't be able to use it at all. ☹️

    That's so sad... you wait for someone to make Sailor Moon villain custom content for the Black Moon clan... and when you find it... it's broken V.V

    Oh well... what a true pity...

    You might need to try resetting your Sims 4 folder. As the mods folder is a default folder in the Sims 4 folder along with it's Resource.cfg file.

    How to reset Sims 4:

    Move or rename your current Sims 4 folder to Sims4Backup. Launch the game so it creates a new Sims 4 folder. Launch the game and play a new save.

    If it's not working, don't save. However, if everything is playing okay then start putting the files back. (list of files and folders below).

    - Options.ini (User game settings)
    - Tray Folder (Sims/Houses/Commercial lots and rooms)
    - Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    - Rest of the save games, if any.
    (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave. It is not used anymore.)
    - Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, and makeup
    - Mods (Put these back one by one to make sure they all still work)

    If it does not create its folder where you are looking you are looking for it in the wrong place. It may be located on Onedrive instead.

    @sundaisy05

    When you create a new Sims 4 folder, it should be able to be found at: C:\Users\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4

    Is this not where your Sims 4 folder is at? If it's on OneDrive, like Jpkarlsen mentioned it needs to be disabled or uninstalled.

    How To: Turn off, disable, or uninstall OneDrive - https://support.office.com/en-us/article/turn-off-disable-or-uninstall-onedrive-f32a17ce-3336-40fe-9c38-6efb09f944b0

    Sims 4 and OneDrive don't work well together. The game won't recognize it's files, if they aren't in \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4. If they're not. The game can't read those files.
