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.
- delete the localthumbcache.package file from your EA/TS4 folder, and
- restart a new (test) game, with NO cc.
- then find the broken cc/mod. Test the game 'each time' you add back a cc item or folder. (you can find tips here, if new to that also).
- The culprit will likely be found via the culling method, using 'Test Game" will help by not 'stripping the cc off your sims'.. More tips at my post here on maintaining your game with cc and Sims 4 Update Patches including instructions on the 50/50 method.
- Once you've isolated the cc causing the issue, do not keep it in your game, and find (if there is one) a replacement.
- Start your game again, with the original save. Having deleted the culprit cc.
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.
