Sims 4 crashes when leaving cas - Steam Deck

Hi ! 

I'm playing on Steam Deck. 

Everytime I leave "Create a sim" my game crashes...

  • I've tried to remove the mods file but does not help
  • I uninstalled et installed the game again
  • I repaired the game many times
  • I deleted the LastException files

Could someone help me please ? It's hard to find solutions as I am playign on steamdeck so on steam os.

Thank you so much for helping me !

  • Petitenuite​  I believe you'd be playing in DirectX 11 mode on a Steam Deck, since it has an AMD iGPU, so try switching to DirectX 9 mode instead.  You can check the DX9 box in the game's graphics settings and restart to switch over.

    If that doesn't help, delete Options.ini, in the same location as your Mods folder, and this time, don't change any graphics settings at all.  If that doesn't help, switch back to DX9 mode, but only that, at least for now.
