Sims 4 Live mode not loading
hi, i tried playing sims this evening and my live/play mode will not load at all, by this i mean i end up on the loading screen for about half an hour before i eventually give up. it has only started...
i’ve tried 2 different households on that same save, i’ve moved them onto a completely empty plot and that also didn’t load.
@molliere And you still don't get any lastexceptions when trying to load one of these households? What if you split them into multiple households of one sim each—is one sim broken while the others are fine? It's just difficult to figure out what the problem is without an LE to give some context.
one of the household sims is a toddler, so i’ll have to move the toddler into a separate household, although i’m starting to think it could be an issue with my toddlers in my save as the other household i tested out also had a toddler in it and didn’t load.
hi, i’ve figured out that the issue is indeed the toddlers. it’s not any cc on the toddlers as i had already tried it without but i moved the toddler out the household and now it’s working good as new. i don’t think any of my toddler cc or mods are broken so i’m a bit confused still but i’m glad i know the root of the problem. do you know anything that causes this?
@molliere I do know of one cause, which is an issue with milestones. More specifically, milestones are attached to the object on which they were achieved, and if that object is custom content, you can have an issue if you remove the cc or if it breaks in a future patch. The thing is, this particular issue normally creates a lastexception with a very particular error in it. Still, you can try adding the milestones fix here:

Other than that, I don't know of an issue that would break toddlers and also not be fixed by removing your mods and custom content. But it's worth adding back your mods, a few at a time; except replace them all with the most updated versions you can find. If you're not sure which version you have, download a new copy.
