Please try moving your Mods folder to your desktop and delete the localthumbnailcache.package file, plus delete any other folder in the "'The Sims 4' folder with the word 'cache' in the title. If this fixes the situation you can re-add your Mods/CC one at a time to see if one was causing the issue. Please also check for updates for all Mods/CC.

Since you have so many Mods, I would recommend the 50/50 Mod troubleshooting method:

• Exit your game.
• Move your Mods folder to your desktop. (Do not delete it – save this for later).
• Restart the game so that it will recreate a new, fresh Mods folder. Do not re-add your Mods/CC, but instead enter the game and begin a new, vanilla (no Mods/CC) game. Enter that new, vanilla game-save to confirm if the issues are gone. Now exit your game.

If that fixed the issue, now you need to troubleshoot your Mods/CC to find which Mods/CC are causing the issue. Use the 50/50 method as follows:

• Divide your Mods/CC from the folder on your desktop in half.
• Add one of the halves back into the game’s Mods folder. Now re-start the game and see if the issue is still gone in the vanilla/new game-save you made.
• If the issue did not re-appear with those added Mods/CC you can try adding the 2nd half from the desktop. If the issues did re-appear, try only adding half of those mods and see if the issue is present in the game...
• Continue in this pattern dividing the folders’ contents in half then half again as needed to eliminate in groupings which Mods/CC are causing the issue.

Once you find the Mods/CC that are causing the issues, check with the Mod/CC creators for updates that may fix the issues.

I'll try. thank you.

got another problem though, I don't know if this could be causing the bugs.

I've gotten these types of messages from mc command centre:

I also downloaded another script mod too and right after I downloaded it the bugs began happening... so I don't know if it's mc command centre that has developed the bugs or if it's the other script mod I downloaded.

thank you! 🙂

@yuwerly Maybe you should check those particular Mods for updates before beginning the troubleshooting on the rest of them.

will do that, thank you ! 😉

i'll come back when i know if it worked or not.

I was having this same issue. I went through all of my Mods removing and adding them to see what it was. I was really hoping it wasn't going to be my More Columns Mod but that was my issue. Once I removed that it no longer gave me an issue. Idk what is worse... only seeing half the items or only having two rows. (>_<)

@ApexPRINCESS Thanks for letting us know which Mod was causing the issue in your game!
