Sims 4 UI is broken

This happened after one of the previous updates back in August (I think). All the UI symbols are swapped and after a while when I click on the UI nothing happens and it crashes, also when I open a sim’s profile the pictures don’t show up just that winged llama. I have recently learned that certain mods have been causing me problems like this so does anybody know what mod could be causing this issue. 

Like seriously every time there is an update something breaks

  • Sounds like UI Cheat Extensions which would have both a .script and .package file.  But if that is not the culprit do the 50/50 method.

    Exit the game, create a mod backup folder, remove half of your mods and restart the game.  See if the issue still exists.  If it does exit, remove half of the remaining mods and repeat.  If it does not occur restore the mods you removed, and remove the first half you tested.  Restart the game the issue should now exist.  Exit and remove half the mods.  

    Keep doing these steps until you have isolated the issue.  Note that multiple mods break especially with UI related fixes.  This will be a problem that occurs so long as you use mods and S4 is still being developed and updated.  Do this long enough and you will know which mods you need to update after each release.
