Hello I'm having some issues with my game. I bought most of my sims 4 games and add on through out the years and it's been like two months that I haven't played anyhow I played my game last night and it was good today I wanted to play and its saying that I'm missing most of the sims 4 game packs. Please can someone help me. I don't want to purchase any game since I've already bought most of my games.
@littlemetx21 Are you sure you're signed into the correct account? Since Sims 4 is free now, it's easy to create a new account and add the game to your library without realizing it. Please check your game library for the missing packs. If they show up as unowned, i.e. you're being asked to buy them again, check the inbox of the email address you're using to sign in to see whether it contains any receipts for EA purchases. If you don't find any, check your other email accounts as well.
If your content does show as owned but isn't loading in-game, please clear the cache for Origin or the EA App, whichever you're using:
https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
and repair the game: open your game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon (Origin) or hover over the Sims 4 icon and click the three dots (EA App), and select Repair. If this doesn't help either, and you're using the EA App, please reinstall Origin and try repairing and launching the game from there.
And if you've bought any content from Steam, please let me know.
This looks like the issue I’m having! I’ve played sims over the years and decide to jump back in. Realized origin is no longer, so redownloaded through EA App on my windows pc.
my DLC all show up and “downloadable” but when I try to load there is an error. I cleared my cache and repaired the game. When I click on “manage add-ons” they are all listed, but say manage on steam. I don’t think I ever had a steam account though. Help!
I just created a steam account to see if there was a way to transfer content. But obviously the dlc wouldn’t be on the new account I just made? I should check my husband’s steam, maybe I accidentally used his?
I was able to go in and repair the game and it had worked my game is now available.
Hi, I have the same issue, did you figure it out?
