SIMS 4 UPDATE WONT LET CC RE-ENABLE
So I get that EA has chose to disable mods and cc for updates. When I start my game, the notice pops up letting me know that my game has been updated and that all CC and mods were disables. It also states that I can re-enable them at any time through the options menu.
I went into my options menu, re-enabled my CC, and then restarted the game as prompted. When the games restarts, the same disabled mods notice pops up every time.
I have:
- repeated the process
- removed all CC from the mods folder and put in a little at a time
- uninstalled and reinstalled Sims 4 completely
- removed all previously dowloaded CC from my game and installed new CC that is supposedly recent and "up-to-date"
It happens every time no matter what.
Is there a way around this? Or a way to maybe remove the most recent update and go back to the base? I am completely fine with how my game was running last time I played.
Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files and make a backup.
Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.
- Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
- Tray Folder
- Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
- Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave)
- Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
- Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
