My game is not loading into the household and returns to the World screen. I did the recommended actions, reinstalled MCCC, and continue to receive this report. What is PublicUnlock? Please help! I am missing my Sims. 😞 Thanks in advance!

After the last two updates script mods won’t work in my game at all. I even updated the mods to the most recent version of the mod and that doesn’t change anything. If I have script mods installed in my game I can’t go into live mode to play the game. I’ve tried repairing my game, taking out my script mods and putting them back in. I also tried turning off the script mod setting in the game and turning it back on and still nothing worked. How do I fix it?
