Plates/Glasses get stuck on sims hand
I've had this happen a few times in my game (I can't remember when it started). When my Sims are eating or drinking, after they clean up, the glass or plate will stay in their hand. They will go about everything normally, as if it's not there, but the glass or plate will eventually get the green gas indicating it's spoiled. It does go away eventually, but the solution isn't the same each time. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title834Views35likes26CommentsBroken and Updated Sims 4 Mods and CC: patch 1.124, May 12 and 21, 2026

So, I play with mods; I've done everything. I've done the 50/50 method; no results. I've cleared my cache; no results. I've removed all mods (down to CC) and tried loading it; no results. The issue? I cannot load the lot my family is living on. I started having infinite loading screens/crashes about 2 weeks ago in this save file; all my mods were up to date after the most recent update. It was working fine; I could play my Sims on their home lot with no problem. They travelled to a bar, I played there no problem, then I saved, and it crashed. I was frustrated but tried again; similar situation, it crashed. I loaded an earlier save when one of my Sims was at Willow Creek Hospital, and could play as her no problem, but when trying to switch to my other sim who was at the home lot/ or trying to send the sim home after, infinite loading screen. I've moved them to empty lots in other worlds, and they load into those fine, but this one lot (in San Sequoia) won't load under any circumstances. I've looked on Reddit, the forums, Facebook, everywhere possible for an answer - I really don't want this to be a corrupt save file situation because everything else about the file seems fine, but I worked hard on the house and want to download it and move it to a different lot if the lot itself is just a corrupt lot. It's a regular household lot. I have mods (they are all up to date, but have been taken out for now); I've repaired my game, uninstalled/reinstalled, updated drivers, loaded earlier files, moved the Sims before trying to enter build mode on that lot (through Manage Worlds), and NOTHING is working. TLDR: My Sims house lot won't load, can't figure out why, and I've done all the troubleshooting I can think of. If anyone can help or direct me to somewhere that can, it would be greatly appreciated.Can’t load into saves
Hello! When wanting to play my usual household today it was like I had started a new save file, having to choose the season again and not having any of my sims in any world. So I closed the game again and tried to play almost every saved game/households but none of them worked. I thought it might be a mod/cc problem but I took them all out of the game and it still didn’t work. I also took out all my saves, repaired the game multiple times, and put them back in again. At some point I couldn’t even load into a new world cus I was stuck in the loading screen. My game worked just fine yesterday and it updated in the morning today and that’s when the issue started. Did anyone have the same problem before and if yes what did you do to repair it? Or if anyone has some tips please let me know! Thank you beforehand ^^SolvedSomehow broke my game.
So, the other day, I downloaded some new mods + cc and after, I started having issues where I can’t actually play the game besides CAS. When I try to select a household/sim and hit play, it takes me back to the world select screen and usually has a weird blue box (pic included) on the bottom left. When I try to add a lot from the gallery I get the error message in the pic and it changes the name of the lot but it remains the previous lot (pic included). It’s been 3 days of going through and removing all the mods and cc I downloaded and nothing is working, and I’m genuinely going insane, I just want to play the game 😭. Any help would be greatly appreciated.[ALERT] Malicious Script Mods and Other Malware
CURRENT INCIDENT: See May-June 2026, most recent post See below for past incidents See also the section in How to Use Mods and CC about "Safe Simming" for advice on how to avoid downloading compromised files. Download TwistedMexi's Modguard mod (from his website or Curseforge) to help protect you from the malware-infested ts4script file you thought was okay, even after you were being cautious. ModGuard Conflicts Do not use mods or tools that are blocked by TwistedMexi's Modguard or that conflict with it, even if they have no malware on examination. Removing Modguard so that you can use a mod means leaving yourself open to malware-infested ts4script mod. Don't do that. Known issues: SYVR – SimsSweep: Triggers a ModGuard report (based on player report). Claims to duplicate ModGuard function but has other serious issues, and I strongly advise not using it. More info here. fgeh – Pose Manager: Blocked by ModGuard. Not necessary as you can still manage poses manually. ***************************************************************************************** January 2024 Incident Beginning as early as mid-January 2024, we began seeing Sims 4 script mods with malicious executable .exe code hidden in them. The mods masqueraded as being from existing creators or from a brand-new creator with a name similar to an existing one. In one known case, it appears that a creator’s account was hacked to update the creator’s own mod page. These mods also presented themselves as being previously existing mods. (Mac users: Because this is .exe code, it won’t affect you, but may produce LEs.) Mods known to have been compromised "PimpMySims4" (impersonated) – Cult Mod – was on Mod the Sims; now removed MySims4 – "Social Events - Unlimited Time" – was on Curseforge; now removed MSQSims (hacked) – on The Sims Resource, Feb. 5-8; all removed Mood Cheat Menu Motherlode Menu Seasons Cheat Menu Weather Forecast Cheat Menu PlayersWonderland (hacked) – Mouth Preset N16 ts4script file – on The Sims Resource, now removed V1 of an adult mod, with a January file date – on LoversLab How to check your system for the January 2024 malware To see if your system has been affected by the malicious code: select Windows-R In the window that opens, type this: %AppData%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\UserData In the folder that opens, look for files called Updater.exe and/or Main.exe. If you are affected If you had one of these files, assume that any sensitive data on your PC may be compromised and take the steps below: Clear your system for this specific virus. (See below.) This must be done FIRST. If you have the Discord app or a cryptocurrency wallet app, uninstall them. This is important if not obvious: Starting these can trigger an attempt to reinstall this malware. Change your passwords. Add two-factor authentication where available. If you had saved credit card or similar information to a web browser, remove it and find out from your financial institution (or other relevant site) what action to take next. Reinstall Discord and cryptocurrency wallet apps from fresh downloads.

This is a good time to run a general virus/malware scan on your computer. More things to know Curseforge and The Sims Resource updated their file screening for this method of malware inclusion. Type of mods affected: The least likely mods to be affected were mods that are only .package files and mods uploaded by mod creators on Patreon or their own sites. Most Sims 4 mods are not script mods and aren’t doing anything requiring a ts4script file. Downloaded folders: Assume that any folder containing a collection of mods might include a compromised mod containing code that can steal your passwords, your banking info, and much more. Do NOT download and install these collections. If you have done so at any time since mid-January, check your system. New prevention/detection Sims 4 tool: TwistedMexi released a tool called ModGuard. April 2024 Incident [April 7, 2024] Malware via a mod that downloaded as only a text file with a link. Known cases: "S4 CAS Tools" on Nexus from user fubruss (the real mod is on Mod the Sims, from the late CmarNYC, dated 18 March 2023) “Loading Screen Randomizer” on Nexus from user fubruss (the real mod is on Mod the Sims, from Tesuto , dated 9 January 2024) Do NOT follow the links in text files. Do NOT download other files or follow links from this user. No legitimate mod download will EVER consist of only a text file (a file ending in .txt). If you downloaded either of these, delete them and run a virus scan. NOTE: This type malware does NOT require that you run the game for it to install itself, and is not what ModGuard is designed to detect and stop. November 2024 Incident On November 5, 2024, on Mod the Sims, someone uploaded malicious versions of at least four mods. Unlike the earlier incident, no new accounts were involved, and one of the accounts breached was TwistedMexi's. No other compromised mods were found. It is not yet known what the effect of any malware included or called up was, so assume it's very bad. What to do If you downloaded any mods with .ts4script files from Mod the Sims on November 5, delete the mod and run a virus scan. If you don't already have it, download TwistedMexi's tool ModGuard. It will not protect against all possible script-file exploits, but it will help. Note that your other system protections cannot see what's in a .ts4script file. April 13, 2025 incident Some SimFileShare CC compromised Do not download mods from SimAndy or TheNinthWaveSim or Pixelunivairse mods/CC from SimFileShare. The accounts are compromised. Files present include an executable (.exe) file presumed to be malicious. If you downloaded files from these creators after about April 11, delete them and run a virus scan The owner of SFS has removed all known compromised files, and SFS is permitting file uploads again. Please remain cautious about what you download, especially files that were updated in early April 2025. March 2026 incident Multiple Mod the Sims accounts compromised. Ts4script files uploaded, including to mods/CC that should not have one. Files contents clearly malicious. If you downloaded any ts4script files from Mod the Sims beginning March 1, 2026, delete immediately and run a full-system malware and virus check. All compromised files have been removed. An 18+ mod-hosting website is also compromised. If you have recently downloaded an 18+ mod from an 18+ website and you don't use ModGuard, check if you've been infected with malware: Look in your Sims 4 install location for a file called "out.exe" (or "out" if extensions are hidden). Do not run the file. Do this: Delete the file Delete recently downloaded 18+ mods Empty your Recycle Bin to permanently delete them Run a full virus and malware scan Change your passwords April 2026 info post A creator named UNYOOZD claimed that they replaced their CC download files with ones containing malware. Their Patreon was deleted a few days later. There is no evidence of malware having been available from links or downloads. Their TSR downloads are just standard .package files and not malware. If you do have any .zip, .rar., .exe., or .ts4script files from this creator, you could delete those. I recommend, however, not spreading word that there was actual malware from them, as there’s no evidence of this May-June 2026 Do NOT download or install these mods: Simray Body Modifications Enhanced creator names include user_96gl6723xjhsfv9z, SimPeet sites include Curseforge (in May; removed soon afterward), Nexus Feet Remaster Mod known source: creator SIVERSPHINXX on Nexus If you have installed them: delete immediately run virus/malware scans on your computer change your passwords The effect of the executables in these mods is not tested. Please presume the worst. Current Impact of Incidents on Mod Update News Updates of mods/CC hosted only on Mod the Sims are on pause.60KViews45likes23Comments
