Sims 4 cc- only old cc showing up
So, ages ago, I installed some cc and it works perfectly fine. Some didn't have required meshes and some I just don't like now so I deleted them, but I also went on a cc shopping spree. However, whenever I load the game up, it ONLY displays the old cc. Even the stuff I deleted was still there.
Now I did move my origin and EA files from my C drive to my D drive, and while most of it works fine, I have a suspicion that this plays a big part in this since I had this cc before I moved it. However, I did delete all my old sims files if I copied them, and I did do a direct move of the files, so I'm not really sure.
I've tried everything I could, like repair and update the game, look for other files, look for corrupted cc using a program- I've even looked at many forums and asked friends for help. I'm stumped on this.
If anyone could suggest a potential answer that would be fantastic- or if there's any way to link a specific cc folder to my current game? Maybe that would sort the issue.
@iiFreshDespair I'm not understanding what you did to link the folders. Did you specifically create a symbolic link on C, and if so, does opening the symlink from C take you to the appropriate folder(s) on D, with the expected files inside? Did you create a symlink for the Sims 4 folder, or for folders inside it? This is what I'm talking about:
To be clear, this only needs to happen for the Sims 4 folder in Documents\Electronic Arts. The game data itself (the files Origin installs, which by default would land in program files) can be placed wherever you want, provided you either initially install it there or take steps to move it properly. But if you're able to play the game, you don't need to worry about these files.
If you've created a symlink and confirmed that it works, please try putting a new custom content item just within the first Mods folder, no subfolders at all, and see whether it works.
