[OLD] Broken/Updated Mods & CC: March 2023 Infants Patch
There's a newer thread! Head to https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/1008121/broken-updated-mods-cc-april-2023-spring-kits-patch unless you're catching up on the Infants patch. ----- Broken/Updated Mods & CC: March 2023 Infants Patch (and teeth hotfix) This topic is for collecting reports on mod and custom content status after the March 2023 Infants patch and the Growing Together EP launch (and the March 24 teeth hotfix). Most mod updates are reported here; updates that only add a translation generally aren’t. ----- THIS PATCH BREAKS ALL THE THINGS This patch will affect more mods than usual because it’s for a new lifestage, an EP with many new features, and a Live-mode Sim pie-menu reorganization! It will also break door, gate, and baby CC. Many modders have been posting that a lot of their mods will be at least partly broken. *** Assume all your mods broke. *** Add them back when they are cleared or updated. And please be patient and kind while waiting. ----- HELP ME HELP YOU This list takes a lot of time to maintain and is easier to manage if it’s kept to its purpose. DO NOT mention or hint at mods that break Forum rules (NSFW/18+, etc.). Please see below for other content that is also not reported here. “Cleared” reports can ONLY be accepted from modders (or people specifically designated by modders). Please don’t report updates that are still Patron-only. This is not a support thread. If you need help finding out what mod broke, read the lists!, do a 50-50 (see the links list below), then if needed visit one of these Discord support servers: - Sims After Dark server: https://discord.gg/RqPqCdBsdF - Deaderpool server: https://discord.gg/z9qPtWU Don’t ask about what broke or is cleared. If there’s an answer, it’s on page 1. If you use Curseforge and a mod is listed updated here but not there, please be patient. File approvals there happen Sunday through Thursday. Your Curseforge mod updates will show up eventually. If you need to test a mod instead of assuming it broke, fully test mods before you report them broken. For instructions, see the previous mod post linked below. Tell me how the mod is broken and how you tested. I cannot list mods as broken without this. Thank you for helping keep this list working! Your support keeps information flowing to Simmers in many places online beyond here. SOME MODS CAN’T BE DISCUSSED HERE Mods that breaks the T-for-Teen game rating CANNOT be named or discussed in these official Sims forums. It’s against Forum Rules. Some creators of these mods also won’t be reported here depending on how sending you to their content works. Also not listed: Mods/CC by people who copy other people’s mods/CC, copy other companies’ copyrighted content or trademarks, pirate software or openly support software piracy, do not release free public updates within a reasonable time (3 weeks for CC), or are otherwise not in compliance with EA’s policy on mods.

TESTING FOR BROKEN MODS Before reporting a mod is broken, test it: To test possible reasons why a last exception (LE) is being generated and why, you can use TwistedMexi’s Better Exceptions and/or Deaderpool’s core MC Command Center files (AFTER they’re cleared or updated!). These files rarely break after game updates. If you need help reading an LE, please head to a Discord server (see below). The Forums are an extremely awkward place for LE support, and this is not a support thread. An LE report is not enough for most reports. It's an indicator for further testing. TO TEST: Back up your saves in case you save over or corrupt a favorite file while you’re testing. Check that the mod you're suspicious of is the most recent version, is installed properly (in the right-level folder, not two different versions when you're supposed to pick one, not duplicated, following any special installation instructions), and has everything it depends on (packs it needs, other mods it needs. A LOT of mod-related LEs are there because something isn't right about installation and requirements. Remove everything else but the mod being tested (and other files it requires for proper installation) from your Mods folder. Leave only the mod being tested and those other files it needs! This is the only way to be sure that the problem is not a conflict between mods or a misfire by the human-coded mods that interpret game LEs. Delete the localthumbcache file. If you don’t delete it, you could still just be seeing effects of a removed mod that are still in your game. Open your game and test to see if the mod is doing what it should in game. If it’s still broken, TELL ME HOW IT'S BROKEN and HOW YOU TESTED IT. I might ask you to "test vanilla" too. This means testing with NO files in Mods at all, ideally on a new save. Sometimes what seems like a mod problem (or even has an LE saying it might be a mod!) is actually a game problem. Vanilla tests help isolate the problem to the mod. Let the creator know too! They really would rather hear from an actual Simmer who can give them more details than find out second-hand from a broken mod report. In fact, you can tell the creator first and get confirmation from them that it's their mod at issue. Then come back and tell me.

>>>Maxis Match Style CC List
Last Updated: 7/11/18 I've noticed that there are many people who dislike IMVU/real-Sim CC and are asking for some great places to get some Maxis-Match styled CC. There are a lot of threads here asking the same thing spread about, so I made a list of the simblrs/blogs I follow along with suggestions from you guys. IMPORTANT: You can easily find TS4 Maxis Match content through Tumblr using the tag #ts4mm https://marvinsims.tumblr.com/custom%20content this is my simblr, I create lots of male/female clothing and some toddler stuff favorites these are what I consider the best creators in terms of quality and quantity. I have most of their stuff female CAS male & female CAS build & buy mixed: CAS/build & buyBroken/Updated Mods & CC: University edition
Broken/Updated Mods & CC: Nov. ’19 University EP & patch This topic is for collecting reports on mod and CC status after the November 2019 pre-University patch and with the University EP. Please keep discussion to reports. Thanks! IMPORTANT NOTE: Mods that breaks the T game rating cannot be discussed in these official forums and will not be included in my list. Do not ask about or report on any of them here — it’s against forum rules. There are other places on the internet where things like that can be discussed. Also, I won't list broken mods that are Patron-only or otherwise non-public and have been so for over a month, or nonpublic updates to those mods. FAQ Q: Is this particular mod broken? A: Is it a mod that would break the game rating? I can’t tell you anything about it here. Is it on page 1, reported broken by a Simmer since the broken mod list was last updated, or or reported fine by its creator since that page 1 list was last updated? If not, then I don’t know. Q: Why is there a section for mods reported fine by the modder but not by players? A: Because a mod that seems to be working for you might still be broken in a way you haven’t yet seen. Q: When will that person update their mod? I can’t play without it! What am I supposed to do?! A: They’ll update it when they can, plus some prefer to wait for a pack to be actually out. Please don’t pressure the creators -- it’s not going to make them update faster. My personal advice is to go for a walk or three, check out a local museum, get a whole lot of housework over with, binge a TV show, or get ahead on your course readings. Q: Why does Maxis always break things?! A: Mods and CC speak to the game code. If the part of the code they speak to is changed by a bug fix or new feature, they can no longer speak to it. Maxis provides a lot of support to modders and CC creators, but the only way they could not break mods and CC would be by not updating/patching the game. By choosing to use mods and CC, you accept risks, including that your unofficial add-ons may become incompatible. Q: Mod X has an update but you haven’t listed it. Why not? A: Either I didn’t know yet or the update is not to fix a broken mod or to include new pack content.
