Sims 4 Needs Disappear

Before I say anything, yes I use mods/cc and yes I have tried sorting through all of them to see if any are broken or need to be updated. They all are fine, but my needs will not show up. This started after the toddler update. I don't know if they are depleting or not because I open the needs menu to find it blank. I've noticed this only happens when my sim is wearing any custom content. I made a sim to test it, and she wasn't wearing any custom content. The needs would appear. Then I made a sim WITH custom content, and the needs disappear. So I edited her to wear base game/purchased items, and the needs reappeared. I'm not sure what is going on and I've searched everywhere for a solution. I told my friend and she said that she isn't having that issue. I'd really like to use cc in my game again. Please help!

    @ThePirateFox, even if the CC or Mods are working fine before a patch or new content, that doesn't' mean they wont work correctly afterwards!.  When EA makes a patch or a new pack to buy, they cant make it work with all the CC and Mods that are out there -- it would be impossible.  It is up to the people who make Mods & CC to update their items after a new pack or patch.  

    Plus, the fact that when you make a Sim without CC you can see its needs, but when you add CC you can't see the needs should be a red flag that it is CC that is causing the problem.  😮☹️

    You will have to actually remove all your Mods and CC and test your game and then try putting them back in one at a time to find the culprit.  It could be just one that is doing it, but it could also be several that are causing the problem.  It also wouldn't hurt to fix your game through Origin, but it sounds like a CC conflict to me. 

    Best of luck, and please update us on if this fixes your game! 

    Happy Simming! 😉
