I have updated my game, the hot fix of March 18th, and my game still doesn't launch with cc installed. I still get the message "Failed to launch game" when cc is installed.
Ideas
its so annoying my game opened once after the march 17th update then it kept giving failed to launch game an error on our end caused the launch to fail try again a little later so i repair my game 2+ times then same thing so i have mod manger i disabled every mod it worked so idk if its ea or my mods i have 3,687 mods and also i have auto updates on i also just got the march 18th update still not working im gonna try to repair my game again okay so i repaired it for the thousandth time it feels like and still same error message im gonna remove my mods all of them again and see how my game is bc when i removed my mods earlier it loaded and i saw the family i last played with my child girl with no hair red and blue overalls the girl and boy adults just the default when u take there clothes off and no hair and all three were white even though they were black when i made them anyway i only saw my main menu and the one time my game lanuched yesterday with the march 17th update the menu was black bc of my ui cheats mod
If you have a fix pls help i cant help without some mods like mc command center ui cheats etc please help
What worked for me was removing my mods folder (just move it to your desktop), launch the game (DO NOT LAUNCH ANY SAVES WITH CC OR MODS), closing the game, moving the mod folder back into the game, and then launching again. Somehow this worked for me. Also make sure you've cleared the cache on the EA app (three lines in the corner > Help > App Recovery).
Edit: Tried it again not even 10 minutes later and it doesn't work anymore. Seems to just be happening with my CC since when i take out just CC and leave all my mods (my mods are up-to-date) the game still launches fine. Seems like I'll have to play CC free for now :( . I honestly wouldnt be surprised if EA broke all external CC on purpose to push the marketplace even further.
Ugh thats annoying i didnt see it until today i was about to try it but saw the Edit
Omg this is exactly what I've been dealing with since yesterday. Mods work find but all my cas cc and buildbuy cc wont let my game launch 😤 I know they did this intentionally. If our games wont support files outside of EA market we will be forced to buy from them. I love the note they left on the front page of the main menu in-game saying they know how important cc is to us and that they fixed the issue. No you didnt!! If u did i wouldn't be getting a launch error when I have them in my mods folder.
I'm honestly just so sick of The Sims 4 atp. Sadly all thats been happening has kind of put me off of the Sims 2 and 3 as well just from the effort i have to put in to get the games to work.
I'm probably just gonna wait for Paralives to come out since the planned release date is around my birthday and I'm broke rn
I can confirm! I've tried this too and got it to work, but it won't start on the second try. sadly!
