Hi @LonaBoom Do you use any mods (you say no cc apart from your own) however, many 'custom traits' are now totally broken. So, just checking..
Also, if nothing but a bit of cc, could you try it vanilla, without any cc. In a 'test' game, ie: 'save as' to not wreck your usual game. Redownload them from the gallery, this may strip the cc, though in the test game, shouldn't matter.
I have never installed any career hacks , no programs or game mods in my game ever. I only install make-up and hair from The Sims Resource from CC creators Natalis and Nightcrawler Sims. I make some CC's myself which is only t-shirts and CC's picture frames.
I just found these two today after checking all my sims households
Also areas missing
I checked more of my household and came across some strange aspirations icons , this is a townie household I move into a house a long time ago , I don't know if anyone ever seen these two before but I have never seen it.
@LonaBoom I would still suggest the tips I stated before, re: 'test game' as cc can and often does affect gameplay in a myriad of ways. 👍
ie: "if nothing but a bit of cc, could you try it vanilla, without any cc. In a 'test' game, so: 'save as' to not wreck your usual game. Redownload them from the gallery, this may strip the cc, though in the test game, shouldn't matter."
I don't understand , could you be more clear what your saying.
You saying to remove my CC's to see if the game act more normal, let me see if that would change anything when I remove my cc's from the game, I have a small amount of cc's
Hi, @LonaBoom it seems you must be new to using cc.. yes. You remove them when experiencing issues of gameplay/or CAS. It's the first thing to do in fact.
Sadly, there is no short cut to finding broken cc (& mods) I'm afraid, it's up to the artist of particular cc & mods to keep them compatible with the game, so you need to find the culprit affecting your game. To do that, remove and cull them 50/50 to find it, there may be an updated version orit's reported as broken, so check with who made it.
Mods and CC require maintenance to keep them in your game, if the modder has not updated it after a game patch/update it may be broken (you can check via the mod tracker for reported broken, etc mods). The process of culling & removing it, to find the broken mod is the only option though, you'll find it won't be 'all of them' but a few or even just 'one'..
More tips here, if you're still experiencing issues.
There is a step by step here on Clearing Cache Files (you can also move it to the desktop instead of deleting if you want to be on the safe side).
Another idea for you is to to a Clean Boot of your pc.
