Stuck on plumbob screen

I was playing the game totally fine last night - no issues. I went in today and now am stuck on the loading screen. It plays the sound as if it has loaded and is going to enter the game, but instead it just stays on the loading screen. I do play with mods and CC, but was playing less than 12 hours ago without a problem. I deleted the localcache and that didn’t help. I restarted my computer and the game multiple times and this hasn’t helped. Same issue each time - unless there was some update that I didn’t see happen between last night and today I am totally lost on what could be wrong since the game loaded yesterday night without error - help!!

  • sperkins12152​  Is this the second loading screen, after you've selected a save?  If so, please open Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 and delete any lastexception files you see.  Try again to load this save, and if and when it doesn't work, look for a new LE.  If you find one, open it (Notepad is fine), copy its text, and paste it into a reply here.

    Please test with your Mods folder removed.  You don't need to save your progress.
