Sims not moving, not completing action

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC latest patch (August 22nd 2024)
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.108.329.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but lovestruck
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? once the game is loaded and we get into the gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim starts playing game on computer, sims plays while standing with no physical action or movement anywhere on the lot. Doesn't go to the desk, doesn't sit in front of the screen. From there no other actions can be done until reset. Even with a reset the sims stay stagnant.
What do you expect to see? Sims doing actions instead of doing it standing in one place or not doing it at all.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes, after I made the update for the lovestruck pack
Please describe the patch or change you made. Latest patch on august 9th

I’m encountering persistent errors in The Sims 4 related to missing attributes and animation issues with object interactions. The error logs report an AttributeError for a missing _require_carried attribute and a RuntimeError concerning carrying animations. I also have desync and carry_elements.pyDespite repairing the game, clearing cache files, and confirming that the game is up-to-date, uninstalling and installing the game again, these issues continue. There are no custom mods or content in use. I need assistance to resolve these errors as they are affecting my gameplay. My sims are not moving or doing any actions. Please help..

here is the last exception transcript:

  • @cloudssoul1234  Your dxdiag lists some generic Windows update errors and a couple of BlueScreens, so please run a couple of basic checks of your Windows system files:

    • Hit Windows key-X
    • Choose either “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator),” whichever option is offered
    • Inside the window that appears, copy and paste “DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth” without quotes, and enter
    • The system will start validating soon. If it throws an error, please list it here
    • After it reaches 100%, hit Windows key-X again
    • Again, choose “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator)”
    • Inside the window, copy and paste “sfc /scannow” without quotes, and enter
    • Post the message you receive here

    Restart your computer, hit Windows key-i, select Update & Security, and click the box to check for updates.  If any install, restart again afterwards.

    Your computer's storage is also almost entirely full, which could be contributing to performance issues in Sims 4 and elsewhere.  Please try to clear another 18 GB at least, for a total of 25 free.  The Downloads folder is a good place to look for extraneous files to delete.

    Once you've done that, restart your computer, wait five minutes, open nothing except the EA App and Sims 4, and let me know how the game runs.

    Hi,

    I freed some space and did what you told me... Nothing still the same.. What should I do now?

    This is the message that I got :

    Début de l’analyse du système. Cette opération peut nécessiter un certain temps.

    Démarrage de la phase de vérification de l’analyse du système.
    La vérification est à 100% terminée.

    Le programme de protection des ressources Windows n’a trouvé aucune violation d’intégrité.
    PS C:\Users\0B746669>

    translation:

     

    Start of system analysis. This operation may take some time.

    Start of the system analysis verification phase.
    The verification is 100% complete.

    Windows Resource Protection found no integrity violations.

    @cloudssoul1234  Please test a new save and see how it runs, for comparison's sake.  Please also let me know what kind of install this is: EA App, Steam, Epic, something else, or mixed.

    @puzzlezaddict Hi, so tried with a new save and it's the same thing than in my old save.. I still get the same last exception error message in my sims 4 folder. I play from the EA App only.

    @cloudssoul1234  As a test, please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just start a new save in one of the base game worlds and let me know how it runs.

    @cloudssoul1234  So this happens in a new save too?  If you added any content from the Gallery or your own library, whether sims or a build, please test again but without that content.

    If that doesn't help, please let me know what kind of install this is: EA App, Steam, Epic, something else, or mixed; and whether the problem is better or worse in different worlds.  Please also post a new dxdiag so I can compare it to the first one.
