Won't go past The Sims 4 logo.

I'm an active CC user, I know where to get the save ones and the right ones. Yesterday I decided to download some from my trusted users, some skins, hairs and a few clothes. Before the game was working perfectly, it took about 10min max. for it load around 10GB of CC. After I installed the stuff and started my game up after 20min it still won't get past the logo, I've had this before and found the problem (I had placed a copy of the Mods folder in the Mods folder, so instead of 10GB I had 20GB + they were all duplicated so my game needed to figure it all out).

Now I've deleted the files I've downloaded yesterday, started up my game and after 15min the game still won't load past the logo. I deleted everything from my mods folder and within 10secs the game was at the menu so I know it's not my Tray files. I decided to put my CC back folder for folder and by the first folder called 'Animations' my game just won't get past the logo! What do I do?!

  • @crinrict weeding through it is gonna be impossible with the amount I have. I'm currently downloading a cc tracker so that I can delete the cc I never use by including them on a sim. I have quite a lot of files which I don't like anymore but as it never includes a name it's almost impossible to find them back in my folders.

    I'll try merging and come back to you, for now my problem is 'gone' just wish to shorten the waiting time as it's hell really, waiting that long.

    Yeah, I understand that. My Sims 2 took 1.5 hours just to load back in the days ..  made me not play anymore

  • @crinrict wow 1.5 hours?! That's insane. Backup of my mods files is almost done, than I'll start merging and see what comes out of it. I've also set my graphics card to high overclock when playing sims 4 so hopefully the waiting time will shorten.

  • @crinrict The merging was sadly not a success. For a few folders it worked when I was testing it but it went wrong somewhere and now when I start it it'll load up just fine, I'll get the EA-Maxis intro and than the The Sims 4 logo but a few seconds after that my screen becomes white and my mouse keeps giving the loading icon until I get a 'TS4_64x has become unresponsive, close application or wait"

    Guess I'll have to wait 40min from now on ☹️
