Sims 4 won't launch after installing mods
When the latest update on The Sims 4 turned off my mods I turned it back on and now because of that my The Sims 4 won't launch. I removed all my mods and tried launching the game it worked and didn't freeze like it used to. Does someone know how to fix this? It used to work before, but from last month it stopped working and I haven't been able to play since then.
When I tried launching with mods on the screen freezed and I couldn't turn off the game. I even watch other youtubers play The Sims 4 with mods on and it works to play for them. I hope I'm not the only one with this problem because I've tried reinstalling it, it didn't work. I've tried doing everything but nothing worked to fix it.
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.
