Mod disappearance
I restarted the ea app, hoping to fix a bug in which my sim would randomly stop the cooking process (no there was no clutter blocking the way, no there wasnt anything blocking the paths, no there wasnt food in the oven, I changed and rebought every single item in the kitchen and it still has the same problem. The restart didnt fix anything) and now all of my mods are gone (I use curseforge and nexusmods), they dont show up anywhere. They arent disabled however in nexus MM or in Curseforge. Please help mefailed to launch
I did not get any Failed to Launch errors that led to the "fix" on March 23rd, however, after that "fix" I am now getting that error 10-15 times a day. I have tried all the fixes suggested such as dragging folders around, clearing caches, playing without mods. Nothing works. If I clear my cache and play without mods my game works for a bit, randomly shuts down, then fails to load. I have to reload 5-8 times to get it to load. Once it does, I must then exit to main menu about 3 times to get the game to unfreeze in live mode. No, I do not use custom content. I used to use mc command center but since this issue I have deleted it from my computer which blows since my favorite form of play is rags to riches. Most of the trouble stems when coming out of or going into CAS. I can pretty much count on a crash followed by 5-6 failed to loads before I can play again every time I use CAS. The only way to reliably change a sim's outfit is to go to neighborhood view and manage households. If I do not do that then the game crashes when coming out of CAS and all the changes are lost.Mod and CC Issues: START HERE

Hi, My game is currently failing to save, and when I try to play one of my saved households, the game keeps going back to the manage world screen. When I resume the game from the homescreen, it also shows a distorted corner UI... I play with cc and have spent the last day testing which ones were causing the black main screen. I finally fixed that issue, and now I have this problem. I have tried to do a save as with the mods folder, and it won't work. I have managed to save as but only once the mods folder is removed. I have installed TM better exceptions, and it hasn't flagged anything (apparently). I don't have WW installed, and I have downloaded all of the newest versions for MCC. I am not sure what to do, and I am getting quite frustrated, constantly having to troubleshoot mods and cc, but I don't want to play without it lol... Is there a solution? Or a way to quickly check what is causing the problem?all my skills, relationships etc disappeared URGENT
hey, i just wanna know if someone has the same issue after updating the new version. it started when i download new pack from the fall sale, when i opened the game, created sim and wanted to play as them i got error code that something went wrong. i didnt care so much but when i tried load up my 2 years old save and wanted to play as the family in the save, i got loading screen and then it took me back to world select without any error or some pop up. I tried deleting all my modes and it worked, i got in the save and it load up but now my 2 year old project family is without job, relationships, skills.. can i get it back or am doomed? only the son has school and his perfect grades but my superstar matriarch is superstar no more. vampire stats stayed the same.Good Omens Trait Mod Broken/Outdated
I've wanted to try this mod for so long but the new update has made it incompatible and the creator is no longer active :( I have the Better Exceptions report showing what the problem is, if any modders know how to make it work again please let me know. I don't know a single thing about modding so help would be appreciated.Still can't launch the game with CC after 3/23 update
Even though this was supposedly fixed and I downloaded the update for it, I still can't play the game if I have CC. I even double checked that I had the most update version number. I have tried everything I could think of to try to fix it, I have tried: Making a clean Sims 4 folder/Mods folder Setting exceptions in Windows Defender Updating graphics drivers Disabling game mod and game bar Forced DX9 mode Making a new admin Windows account And I already had OneDrive uninstalled. I seriously don't know what I'm supposed to do at this point.
