I was able to start my game fully by running app recovery in EA and then opening the game via my desktop by clicking "run as administrator." It's the only way my game will run with all my CC. hopefully this will help someone
I already tried that today and it didn't work, everything is very confusing, what works for some doesn't work for others, it's not a consistent error.
Thank you! I'm going to try that. :/ Mine is loading up all fine, and then when I hit resume game, it just loads and loads forever. I'm tired of these updates! I had mine turned off
I will try this. It's so frustrating. I waited to update until the "fix," and still it's broken. CC objects mostly work, but not hair/makeup/clothing.
OK oddly, this also somewhat worked for me, while I was doing 50-50 method. Going to try with all mods. Thank you so much for sharing this
Update- this is still not allowing most CC to load- whether Alpha or Maxis Match
Dymebaby You can wait for an EA-side fix, or try this set of steps. I don't know yet if it works for everybody, and I don't know yet if it stays working, but it has seen at least some good results so far if followed exactly:
1. Rename the user folder - the one Mods is inside of. I do something like "THE SIMS 4 OLD FOLDER".
2. Start the game and exit to make a new user folder.
3. When copying mods/CC from the old Mods folder to the new Mods folder, don't copy/move folders. Make new Mods subfolders and copy only files.
So EA is working on another fix? That's good to know.
Please say they plan to fix this
So... EA is aware of this? Where's the public post...?
They haven’t come out with one since the update on the 17th. People are arguing and saying they didn’t intentionally nuke. But I think they did. Especially since they won’t come out publicly, only random influencers are. But these people who do reviews are buying stuff from market place. So I have a feeling we are all screwed
