I’m super late behind everyone with this problem but I have to say that I searched for 3 whole days on how to fix my sims game & finally after stumbling across this video , it works !!!!. Thankyou so much, earned a new subscriber!!
@@Dariellehey i just wanna say i’m still going through the process but i’ll let u know if it works and again thank u soooooo much for creating these videos some of ur previous videos have helped me with different issues God bless you
@@Darielleomg it worked God bless you omg i luv u so muchh i luv i luv u ahhhh God bless u i’m cryind and screaming i am going to make all my family and friends subscribe to u i luv u so much omggggg😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I had thlis problem for the very first time today, and then I checked my UA-cam subscriptions, and you have made this video. How cool. I don't have any mods, but I've been playing with this one save file for a long time. Thank you so much for the help.
How cool is that?? Thanks for sharing this with me, your comment made my day. I'm so glad I could do something do help you out! Hope you have a nice day/night!
Nothing works :( I reset my electronic arts folder *FIXED !! - so what I had to do was move my family into a new house, sometimes your house can have buggy objects in it or the whole house is a bug, you can try to spot out which build mode object is causing the problem (but you have to do it after you moved the family out and then go to manage worlds and then build mode or you won’t be able to access the house) but I’m lazy asf so I just moved them into a totally new house and everything is fine. :) hope this helps and thanks for your video !
Thank you for sharing your tips & tricks, it will surely help others, too! You kinda have to find workarounds all the time, especially while using mods & cc, but it's kinda strange that this happened even after removing those! Either way, I'm glad to hear that you sorted everything out! Wishing you a Happy New Year to you & your loved ones! 🎉🤗
I did everything that you did but my sims 4 still has an issue, I can open the game but I can’t open any households, and when I hover my mouse over any house it just shows a flickering blue square then when i open “manage households” Its all empty then when I go to an old save file I had it’s all fine? it’s been a while since it’s been like that (after updating)
If that doesn't fix your issue, you can try to reset your EA folder and then place only updated versions for your mods, as shown in here: ua-cam.com/video/-pCFvTcqQnQ/v-deo.html Keep in mind that you should not delete the old EA folder in order to copy all of your saves, tray, screenshots & cc and paste those into your newly generated EA folder. The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/WncYhAAtKcM/v-deo.html) If you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ua-cam.com/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/v-deo.html You can also try to batch fix your cc using TS4 Studio. Let me know if it helps! 🤗
hi , so currently i have a problem with my game i repaired it and even updated it and every time i try to play the game it takes me back to the main menu is they anyway to fix this?
THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS SO TRAUMATIZED THAT I WAS GOING TO LOSE ALL MY FAVOURITE SIMS BECAUSE I DOWNLOADED THE STUPID BROOKHEIGHTS MOD AND IT DIDNT WORK U SAVED MY SIMS THANK YOU
Hey do you have a solution for the infants update? Because ever since I had that update, this one save file won’t work anymore When I choose load game it shows my family but with a name of a different family and when I load that save it doesn’t show any of my households But the issue is only with this one save file Edit: I recovered the game and the households are showing now but I can’t load them, it always gives me an error message I did everything you did, I repaired it like 5 times but nothing works :/
@@amourfaithhh if you don't want to delete anything, i advice you to reset the game as shown in the video, i realized that deleting exported household is not effective in long term, it causes different issues, so just reset the game, my game is totally fixed now
My game is fine, EXCEPT for when I go anywhere in the Get Famous pack... which sucks cause my sim is an actor 😅. I followed the steps, the reset was good, everything was recovered, and I deleted what you said, and went back in. Everything was good, but I did the ultimate test: going into the land of the actors...... and it STILL showed the error. I'm not sure if you know what to do about this, cause I've done the reset, I've created a seperate "Save As" file, and it was being weird still. All that aside, I loved your video. Very well made :]
Sweet! reinstalled pretty much all my cc I had downloaded (didn't take that long), but kept getting a error, deleted 1 folder in particular which had a script file, got into the game after I deleted it, thanks!
Hey there!! Did you reset the mods folder? Can we try to reinstall the script mods that we've used? If we did update the game, we're gonna need to download the updates for our mods ^^
10 months late to the party lol, I just followed this but if I had recently updated my mods before following your steps will I have to redownload them?
You won't have to do this unless your game is working fine! If it's not, you can try to remove, redownload & reinstall them. You could additionally reset your Mods folder as well just to make sure everything is all clean and good to go! Do let me know if you need further explanations, I'm here!
This video was very helpuful, I tried all the steps still doesn't work. It is only happening with one of my families, I tried moving them out, moving them with others nothing is working :( I am super sad!
Hey there!! Are we sure that we don't have any broken script mods or cc left in the Mods folder (those could also be functional cc aka bunk beds or some other furniture, cas related mods, ui cheats, mccc, things like that)? We can also try to delete the localthumbcache file from the TS4 folder after getting rid of the broken mods so that we delete the game's cache that piled up over time Can we take a look into the Mods, delete what might be broken & install the latest versions for your mods instead?
@@Darielle Thank you so much for the answer, I only had 3 mods installed for 3 types of hair which i deleted. But unfortunately after i installed them the game didn't work anymore. I will try the part with localthumbcash.
Update: I reinstalled the game on a new computer and it worked, probably if I have done the same thing on my old computer it would have worked also. I probably missed some steps or something.
I spent 30 minuets trying to fix my game and doing both ways you gave, just to realize my sim was on a date at the boba shop and it was her being there making it fail to load 😃 not going there ever again lol.. THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!!!! Saving it for the future :))
I have a problem with my game bills It literally won't let me pay for them. I get the option to click on it and my sim does the "pay the bills" animation but then nothing happens everything stays the same I even moved my mods and the scripts I have to check if that was it and still nothing happens +82$ appears and nothing happens from there Can you help me? :( PS: Does the Tray folder affect anything?
I don’t have any mods. I pay for all my expansions. Can somebody help me!! It’s been going on for weeks now. Uninstall the app re put the game on. Like help. I am lost for words on what to do 😢
but what if I want to use those script mods after I deleted them? can I put my original ea folder into my thing again or will the game error just keep happening if I have those mods?
So if we want to have the same mods in the game, we can try to: - write the name of each mod (from the original mods folder) - you can tell what are the mods by searching ts4script inside the mods search bar - on a piece of paper/notes (so we know what mods we used) - google each mod - ONLY download those mods that have been UPDATED I know you want to have all of your mods back, but the thing is, if we continue to put mods that have not been updated, those might still cause issues in the game! That’s why I stand for only installing mods that have been updated, bcs I want you to fully enjoy the game & not have issues in the game anymore Truly hope I made sense 🙏 let me know if there is anything else that I could’ve explain better
Add them back but make sure none of them are outdated or corrupted. maybe download better exceptions, it checks your mods for outdated mods or corrupted files. what i did, i just added mods in sections and started up the game to see if it worked with the mods, if it didnt you'd get a notif which mod is broken. I'd recommend deleting it or maybe updating the mod
idk what to do.. i was in sims, i wanted some other mods so i downloaded them, then i tried going back in, when i got passed the loading screen then to the worlds it said “the game failed to load it is recommended that you relaunch the game” i took the mods out of my folder and it still is not working :( i really need help
We can try to do the following :) Just basically resetting the Mods folder (make sure to turn on mods & cc > close your game > rename your Mods 📂 into Mods old > open the game > exit it straightaway And now we should see a brand new Mods folder into your Sims 4 folder! Here we need to make sure that we ONLY put updated mods & cc, so be sure to download the latest versions, at least for your script mods! Do let me know if this works 🤗
Gotcha!! So you can try to: 1. Free up some space by removing some unuseful things from your Desktop, Downloads folder, sims 4 Screenshots folder or by uninstalling certain apps that you no longer use Or 2. Cut and paste your Sims 4 folder to an external drive (ssd/hdd), to a flash drive or onto another computer Or 3. Backup your folder using a backup app (but make sure that all of your files have been safely saved)
Every methods didnt work for me. i've even reinstalled my sims, used BE mods to track broken mods, the problem (failed to load the game) still there. Is there anyone who have experienced this? and how to fix it? im getting desperate :')
I'm the one to be grateful, really!! But wait, have you tried to install the latest update? If the latest update works fine in your game, you can still play with that mod!
@@Darielle Yes I have tried but then I realized I have more script mods I didn't even know about! I am going through them and trying to figure it out, hopefully it works
Sims4 doesn't even open, tried them all. please help i just got my computer back from moving and i've been so excited to play for 6 months and now i cant. i dont want to not play sims4 again. Im literally so sad :(((
Here I am!! Soo did you also try resetting your Mods folder? Please try to do it this way! Here are the steps: 1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game 2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on) 3. Open your game & close it straightaway 4. A new Mods folder should pop up 5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder 6. Download the latest versions for your script mods 7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder Fingers crossed it all goes well!!!
Hey there!! Yesss, I’m more than happy to share some tips that have worked for me! 1. Try to delete the following files from your the sims 4 folder (doing this clears the cache): localthumbcache.package (or localthumbcache), gameversion.txt (or gameversion) 2. If you still have cc & mods in your Mods folder, we can try to do the 50/50 method That means: Divinding your mods files (50-50) Aka 50% (1st half) of your cc & mods files are gonna stay in the mods folder 50% (2nd half) of your cc & mods goes into a separate folder (create a folder on your Desktop/on your other drive if you don’t have enough space & cut & paste that half there) Now we’re going to launch the game with that half of our cc in the mods folder Does it launch? If so, the problematic cc file is in the other half If it still does not launch, then we have some problematic files in our Mods folder If it does not launch, then we’re gonna cut + paste one file at a time from the Mods folder to the folder we’ve created on desktop/other drive & LAUNCH the game to see if that particular file is problematic Keep doing this (putting one mod away & launching game) till we figure out what cc/mod is the problem! We’ll know which one is problematic when we transfer the file & the game launches! So once your game launches, remove that last file & then start putting back your files from that other folder (aka the Desktop/drive folder) ONE by ONE & launching the game to see if there is a problematic file in that batch as well! If the game stops working, then see what file you’ve last copied, that one is problematic and we need to get rid of it! Hope it all makes sense 🙏 and hope you find this helpful!
What does it mean when it only happens when you try to load in a specific world?? it wont let me load into sulani which is a bummer because i JUST got island living
First of all, did you get rid of the outdated mods that you might have in your game (such as MCC, UI cheats, More Columns)? If so, you can then try to rename your Mods folder into Mods old (with your game completely closed) and do NOT delete your Mods old folder as you'll need to copy your files from there > open your game > close it straightaway > a new Mods folder should pop up. Here you need to paste all of your files that you have in your Mods old folder (but make sure you get rid of any outdated script mods that you might have beforehand and install the latest versions for them in the new Mods folder) Then open your game & everything should be good to go Let me know how it goes!!
I deleted all the broken files from mod conflict detector and nothing in there when I scan is broken then also my game is loading very slow because it would take like an hour for my game to load or more than a hour
Hello there, MCD is kinda outdated, hence why it might not show all of your incompatibile/out of date mods. It's always best to remove all of your script mods & install the latest versions whenever an update comes out. So you can now try to: 1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game 2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on) 3. Open your game & close it straightaway 4. A new Mods folder should pop up 5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder 6. Download the latest versions for your script mods 7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder Let me know how it goes!
it worked the first method but now its doing the same thing again :( im going to uninstall and reinstall now. this is the last hope ive done both steps :(
Hi there, Happy New Year!! 😊 Did we put some broken/outdated script mods into the Mods folder by any chance? Can we try to get rid of all script mods (things like ui cheats, mc command center, slice of life and so on) and see if this solves the issue?
@@Darielle hello thank you for the response, and happy new year! I will try that the thing is I don't have any cc or use any cheats the only cheat I use is 'make Sims happy and disable needs decay' I don't use cc or mods so it's strange I'm getting this error. Mods folder is empty.
Can we also try to remove the following files from The Sims 4 folder? These are called localthumbcache, options & gameversion (the first one is a cache file aka a temporary file that will be regenerated after opening the game; deleting the second one will reset your game options - we're doing this to make sure that there is no mod issue in the game as it disables mods and cc; the third one is also a temporary file that will be regenerated after launching the game, pretty similar to a cache file) I truly hope this helps 🙏 if not, we might wanna try repairing the game as well, but make sure you backup (aka copy + paste the entire EA folder somewhere on your computer) the EA folder beforehand :)
@@Darielle Hello i just tried that, still the same thing but with a new error code :S 102:85712702:5515bbec i heard it might be the detective career that's bugged
I have a problem where every time i try to open the sims i get a small window that says “there is a problem with your games setup, please install your game” and i don’t know what to do
It's always best to remove all of your script mods & install the latest versions whenever an update comes out. If deleting & updating your mods does not work for you, you can try this: 1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game 2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on) 3. Open your game & close it straightaway 4. A new Mods folder should pop up 5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder 6. Download the latest versions for your script mods 7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder Let me know how it goes!
It shouldn’t happen this, are we sure that we deleted the one from the sims 4 folder (not a file from our mods folder)? Also, if we take a look into the recycle bin, can we see our cc, right click on them & restore? Hope we can figure this out together!
So we can either go into our mods folder and delete all mods (aka the ones that end with ts4script as well as any kind of file that adds features to the game - things like real life mod, high school mod, restaurant mod and so on - so NOT cc aka clothes/build items) Orrr We can do that & reset the mods folder Hope this makes sense 🙏
Hi i had to delete the mods that glitched my game but i really want them, is there a way to fix this issue? i already tried downloading them again but they don’t seem to want to work…
Hello! Resetting the Mods folder & putting the fresh (re-downloaded) mods could be the way to go! Make sure you download the latest versions for them (if the creators did not release an update for them, they might still be broken, but we can try this to see if it makes a difference)
I’ll write here the steps for resetting the mods folder 1. Enable cc & mods in the game (game options) 2. Apply changes (if those do not apply, i have a fix for that ua-cam.com/video/ejP49zTg7FM/v-deo.html > close game 3. Rename the Mods folder into Mods old (keep the Mods old folder in your TS4 folder) - do this with your game completely closed 4. Remove these files from The Sims 4 folder: localthumbcache & gameversion (this way we remove any temporary corrupted mod files, similar to getting rid of cache!) 5. Launch the game & close it rightaway 6. A new Mods folder should appear in TS4 folder (make sure it has the resource.cfg file inside!) 7. Copy all of your cc - clothes and furniture - (but no script mods or functional cc, things like life mods, restaurant mods etc) from your Mods old to the newly generated Mods folder 8. Download the updates for the mods (if there are any! If there are not, we gotta be patient a bit & wait till those updates get released🙏) 9. Place your updated script mods into your newly generated Mods folder
If you did double check that all files are copied (your saves, tray, cc & screenshots - you can check by comparing the number of files in each of those folders - the old ea & new ea), then yes, you can remove it
what if the game slot is still saved in the loaded game but when you try to play it the sims don't appear, they told me to made a new household and there is unocuppied written on the townies house? I really ask for your help please
Hey!! Did you update the game? Also, if we try to check the Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Saves folder, is the save (the number of the save there? We can check if there are any other saves onto the computer by going onto the search bar on the taskbar > type in Saves and see if any other folders show up!
@@Darielle it happened after I updated the game 😓, my sims was super lagging so I deleted some files like localthumb, lastexception, and other junk files to stop the lag. then I downloaded some home cc which used the tray folder, I was able to continue the resumed game but it went like "__" and the sims disappeared, so I deleted all the mods I had and then replaced it with the latest version but it didn't show any improvements to the game still "__" then I tried to restart the game as in this video but when I tried to play the saved slot it looked like an error, I was told to create a new household when I tried to play the saved slot and the townies disappeared even when I pointed the arrow at their house their family profile photo didn't appear
Yesss, exactly!! Did we delete the tray folder? That’s the one that includes all of your sims (so not your progress and saves, but the sims characters and the houses/lots)
Hello, I want to ask, after the first step I made was successful and then I copied the mod that I copied electronic art again, did it have problems again? or do I download the same mod again? Thanks in advance, the first tip really helps my problem!!☺☺
Sure I can! Here you can find a bunch of reasons why your mods are not appearing ua-cam.com/video/9Lcc45SSeRw/v-deo.html, but if that doesn't help you out, i'm here to help! Do let me know how it all goes :)
I deleted all mods and it helped and installed new but the one like mc command center dont work and dont show up so did i delete something in my pc that makes mods work
If you wanna put your script mods back, you'll have to redownload the latest version for them, just to make sure that we're no longer encountering game issues
so i tried your way of this and it worked when i removed all my mods. but when i put my mods back then it had the error again. does that mean that I need to delete some of my mods cause maybe something isnt workinig?.
So here’s what we can do about it 🫶🏻 - go into our mods folder - type in the search bar ts4script - write all of our mods down on a piece of paper (so that we can later on know what mods we’ve used & install the updates) - delete all those mods that end with ts4script - search in the search bar each mod (like type in the name of your mods one by one & delete any other files that show up there, some do end with package) - delete any kind of functional cc (things like more columns, ui mods, life mods, toddler mods, restaurant/school mods, anything that adds features in the game) - our clothes & furniture cc don’t usually get broken , so we can keep those - remove the localthumbcache file from the sims 4 folder
hey so nothing worked It was weird cuz I also never had corrupted files, I deleted all the files to redownload it completely but I don't remember how to really download it now do you supposedly have the links?
I have the pets and dogs pack on steam so I originally had sims4 downloaded from steam, but when I download it to the EA app and go in I obviously don’t have the pack so what am I supposed to do?
Hello 🫶🏻 so here’s the thing We need to link our steam account to the ea app (so that our games & packs show up in the ea app) To do that: - install the ea app - login in via steam (there’s a steam icon when you’re trying to log in, if you’re logged in, then log out & use that steam icon, make sure we know the ea account if we have some other packs there as well before logging out!) - then you’re going to see a window that asks you if you want to link your steam account to the ea app, so click yes
Hey there! If you did copy and paste all of your files from there (namely, your tray, saves, your cc snd screenshots) to the new EA folder, then yes, you can delete it
@@Darielle i didn’t care to transfer anything. i was fine starting fresh.. would it still be okay to delete? sorry im too paranoid that i might accidentally delete smth i shouldn’t lol
So inside your Electronic Arts folder you can only find files related to your old sims, houses, saves, screenshots, mods and cc and also the options that you've set into your game (such as full screen mode/ windowed full screen, mods & cc enabled, ui aspect, sounds, basically any settings that you've made in your Game Options, after deleting those, your setings will be the default ones, but you can adjust them to your needs once again). So there's no need to worry about game/ actual program files since those are located into a different folder (into your C drive) So if you decide to start fresh and have no mods, no old families, houses or screenshots, you're good go!
Hey there!! If we're talking about cc (like clothes & furniture), then yes!! But don't put any script mods (aka mods that add gameplay features, certain functionalities) in the new folder!! We need to update those script mods - so only put updated mods in your new folder - (if there are any updates! If not, we just gotta wait until the creator releases an update for that) Hope it helps & wishing you all the best 🙏
What if your not using Origin when playing Sims 4? I'm using Steam. It doesn't have that option for repairing your game. So this part is kind of... well doesn't really apply to me.
I don’t use Mods or CCs and was getting saving error code 0 and I did everything I could, but I still can’t “save” unless I choose to play for a loooong time and the. “Save as” 😢 My saves must be corrupted but I don’t even have half the stuff downloaded and I don’t do mods or CCs. I’m going to be really pissed if my 24+ generation families are gone. Is the next step uninstalling sims 4 and reinstalling or is it unsalvagable because the saves are, for some reason, corrupted?
Tysm I only had one mod that actually was the problem and I was so dumb and hacked my computer because I thought someone hacked me and I couldn’t get it out anymore 👏🏻💀💀💀💀
Ahhh you’re soo welcome 🙏❤️ so sorry you had to go through this, but everything’s good now, right? I’m here if you ever run into mod issues and stuff & hope you’re doing well! Sending lots of blessings your way!
Hey there! We can try to switch the game to the normal version if your computer can run it ^^ Just open your EA/Origin app, right click on TS4 > Game Properties / view properties > Advanced > switch to the The Sims 4 64bit version Do let me know if it works for you :)
I have no idea what to do it still doesn't work i'm going to cry and probably delete the game because i've been trying to fix this for days and it still won't work...
Hey there, we can surely work it out! How about we try to reset the Mods folder this way? Here are the steps: 1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game 2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on) 3. Open your game & close it straightaway 4. A new Mods folder should pop up 5.

Hiya, is our game not loading at all? What works is resetting the mods folder That means = renaming the mods folder into mods old (but keeping it there) Opening the game & enabling mods & cc in game options Closing the game Relaunching it & exiting it straightaway A new Mods folder will pop up Here we can install the latest updates for our mods & copy CC only (so no mods) from our Mods old folder 🙏
Yes, but it depends what kind of package files we had Did we have package files that were mods (like adult, toddlers, school, restaurant, life mods aka things that add features) Or did we only have cc package files (like clothes, build items, makeup etc) Also Do we still have those in our bin? We can try to look them up & see if there are updates for them If there are no updates for those cc that add features, then I think it’s be better for us to wait for updates, bcs those might break our game if they are not up to date
Could be due to broken/old script mods Deleting the ts4script files after update + google those mods and seeing if there are any updates (so you can have the proper version for the mods) is what worked wonders for me, as well as resetting the backing up the current mods folder + resetting it
Did this happen after update? We can try to completely close ps4 Unplug it for 5 mins Plug it once again Restart it Try to launch sims 4 Let me know if that makes a difference 🙏
@@Darielle still says the same thing I’m not sure how you’d apply what you did in your video to a ps4 by finding the file. But this happed after my wifi suddenly disconnected & reconnected ever since it’s said the following “Game loading in progress”
my game won't load like it won't open unless i reset the ea folder every time so like everytime i like exit the game and try to go back on it wont work unless i reset the ea folder its been broken since the update like 2 weeks ago i think that big update was. i'm not sure what to do help aahhaha x
Firstly, you can try to delete any adult mods you'd have in your Mods folder. If that doesn't seem to be of help, you can try to take out all of your script mods & install the latest versions for those. The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/WncYhAAtKcM/v-deo.html) Last but not least, if you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ua-cam.com/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/v-deo.html Let me know if it helps! 🤗

@@oliviakingsnorth5477 ayyyyyy, thanks for sharing this with me, I'm so happy I could be able to help you out in a way! Sending lots of hugs your way 🤗🤗
My problem is that my game keeps freezing when I click on load game 😔 I've tried everything!! But I really don't want to lose my saves! I have already lost them once because of a glitch. I tried your methods but it isn't working! I don't think it's an issue with my mods/cc 😭
Please try to press ctrl shift c at the same time > go to task manager -> if you see the sims 4 app/ea app in that list, click it & then end task. This makes sure that the apps are completely closed
This usually has to do with broken mods & files aka the mods folder, so in any case (ea/origin/steam), resetting the mods folder worked wonders for me 1. Turn on cc & mods 2. Apply changes (if those do not apply, i have a fix for that ua-cam.com/video/ejP49zTg7FM/v-deo.html > close game 3. Rename the Mods folder into Mods old (keep the Mods old folder in your TS4 folder) - do this with your game completely closed 4. Remove these files from The Sims 4 folder: localthumbcache & gameversion (this way we remove any temporary corrupted mod files, similar to getting rid of cache!) 5. Launch the game & close it rightaway 6. A new Mods folder should appear in TS4 folder (make sure it has the resource.cfg file inside!) 7. Copy all of your cc - clothes and furniture - (but no script mods or functional cc, things like life mods, restaurant mods etc) from your Mods old to the newly generated Mods folder 8. Download the updates for the mods (if there are any! If there are not, we gotta be patient a bit & wait till those updates get released🙏) 9. Place your updated script mods into your newly generated Mods folder

After 7HOURS of hurt i found your video🙏🏾. 1AM you saved my life
did you redownload your mods w the scripts after? cause i dont wanna redownload mine then having to do it again
i’m gonna cry this is gonna take so long bc i have SO many mods
Same 😭
fr
😭😭😭😭😭😭
This is me a have sooooooo many
i have over 80 😫 i’m bouta cry
I’m super late behind everyone with this problem but I have to say that I searched for 3 whole days on how to fix my sims game & finally after stumbling across this video , it works !!!!. Thankyou so much, earned a new subscriber!!
Sending lots of blessings your way! 🙏🙏🙏
@@Dariellehey i just wanna say i’m still going through the process but i’ll let u know if it works and again thank u soooooo much for creating these videos some of ur previous videos have helped me with different issues God bless you
@@Darielleomg it worked God bless you omg i luv u so muchh i luv i luv u ahhhh God bless u i’m cryind and screaming i am going to make all my family and friends subscribe to u i luv u so much omggggg😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I had thlis problem for the very first time today, and then I checked my UA-cam subscriptions, and you have made this video. How cool. I don't have any mods, but I've been playing with this one save file for a long time. Thank you so much for the help.
How cool is that?? Thanks for sharing this with me, your comment made my day. I'm so glad I could do something do help you out! Hope you have a nice day/night!
Nothing works :( I reset my electronic arts folder
*FIXED !! - so what I had to do was move my family into a new house, sometimes your house can have buggy objects in it or the whole house is a bug, you can try to spot out which build mode object is causing the problem (but you have to do it after you moved the family out and then go to manage worlds and then build mode or you won’t be able to access the house) but I’m lazy asf so I just moved them into a totally new house and everything is fine. :) hope this helps and thanks for your video !
I also removed all my cc and mods and still get this problem
Thank you for sharing your tips & tricks, it will surely help others, too! You kinda have to find workarounds all the time, especially while using mods & cc, but it's kinda strange that this happened even after removing those! Either way, I'm glad to hear that you sorted everything out! Wishing you a Happy New Year to you & your loved ones! 🎉🤗
Thank you so much it works I moved them in a new house.
I have the cracked game so i was freaking out thinking that i could lose my save and having to do everything again. Thank you, you saved my game haha.
Thanks so much. I just deleted all my mods because I don’t want to go through all of them lol but it’s better than my game being broken😂
do i delete my old sims folder?
I did everything that you did but my sims 4 still has an issue, I can open the game but I can’t open any households, and when I hover my mouse over any house it just shows a flickering blue square then when i open “manage households” Its all empty then when I go to an old save file I had it’s all fine? it’s been a while since it’s been like that (after updating)
If that doesn't fix your issue, you can try to reset your EA folder and then place only updated versions for your mods, as shown in here: ua-cam.com/video/-pCFvTcqQnQ/v-deo.html
Keep in mind that you should not delete the old EA folder in order to copy all of your saves, tray, screenshots & cc and paste those into your newly generated EA folder.
The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/WncYhAAtKcM/v-deo.html) If you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc:
ua-cam.com/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/v-deo.html
You can also try to batch fix your cc using TS4 Studio.
Let me know if it helps! 🤗
Yes that happened for m to

hi
, so currently i have a problem with my game
i repaired it and even updated it and every time i try to play the game it takes me back to the main menu
is they anyway to fix this?
What if I can't load the household I want to play? It still gives me the loading Error code.
THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS SO TRAUMATIZED THAT I WAS GOING TO LOSE ALL MY FAVOURITE SIMS BECAUSE I DOWNLOADED THE STUPID BROOKHEIGHTS MOD AND IT DIDNT WORK U SAVED MY SIMS THANK YOU
I didn’t do all of this. I remember this one mod I downloaded and tbere was a error so I just deleted that mod. Gosh I’m so happy I got rid of it
So glad you figured out what mod was causing you issues! We just gotta keep deleting & updating them to avoid these issues!
You're a lifesaver! I felt like I was going to go crazy 😭😭😭
🙏🙏🫶🏻
Hey do you have a solution for the infants update?
Because ever since I had that update, this one save file won’t work anymore
When I choose load game it shows my family but with a name of a different family and when I load that save it doesn’t show any of my households
But the issue is only with this one save file
Edit:
I recovered the game and the households are showing now but I can’t load them, it always gives me an error message
I did everything you did, I repaired it like 5 times but nothing works :/
Literally the same thing is happening to me, idk wat to do anymore 😢
Same here, ever since the update whenever I place a lot from the gallery I get the error message! It’s so annoying.
omg. thank you SO much! method 1 worked for me! you’re a lifesaver ❤️❤️❤️
Thank u sooo much. I've been stressing over this for days. This vid really helped.
That's the least I could do, thank YOU for being here! Sending lots of good thoughts your way :)
after fixing it, can i re-add the mods? or would i have to keep playing without them?
Yes, but only if they are updated mods, so most mods need to be re-downloaded (make sure you check the release date for them)
Hi so I did all the steps to the easy version but now my sims game won’t open what should I do?
If yall have this problem after exporting your tray file, just delete the exported household in your library, and the game should work fine after that
How do i delete the exported household
@@amourfaithhh if you don't want to delete anything, i advice you to reset the game as shown in the video, i realized that deleting exported household is not effective in long term, it causes different issues, so just reset the game, my game is totally fixed now
@@periodt6862 Yeah i think resetting the game is the only thing that will help. How do i reset it without deleting anything (i play on a macbook)
My game is fine, EXCEPT for when I go anywhere in the Get Famous pack... which sucks cause my sim is an actor 😅. I followed the steps, the reset was good, everything was recovered, and I deleted what you said, and went back in. Everything was good, but I did the ultimate test: going into the land of the actors...... and it STILL showed the error.
I'm not sure if you know what to do about this, cause I've done the reset, I've created a seperate "Save As" file, and it was being weird still.
All that aside, I loved your video. Very well made :]
This was so helpful! Thank you so much, this helped me with my issue! :)
Ayyy, I'm so glad your game is back to normal! Hope you have lots of fun!
@@Dariellehi darlie Tysm it worked but i have a question can I download all the mc mod again or I’m gonna have the same problem?
Sweet! reinstalled pretty much all my cc I had downloaded (didn't take that long), but kept getting a error, deleted 1 folder in particular which had a script file, got into the game after I deleted it, thanks!
That's the least I could do!! Thank you for letting me know how it all went!
what folder did you delete?
OMG YOUR A LIFE SAVER ME AND MY SIS WERE SEARCHING FOR A SOLUTION FOR HOURSSSS TYSSSSMMMM
But how do I get my script back tho 😭
That's truly the least I could do, thank you so much for sharing this with us!! 🙏
Hope you're good!!
Hey there!! Did you reset the mods folder? Can we try to reinstall the script mods that we've used?
If we did update the game, we're gonna need to download the updates for our mods ^^
10 months late to the party lol, I just followed this but if I had recently updated my mods before following your steps will I have to redownload them?
You won't have to do this unless your game is working fine! If it's not, you can try to remove, redownload & reinstall them. You could additionally reset your Mods folder as well just to make sure everything is all clean and good to go! Do let me know if you need further explanations, I'm here!
This video was very helpuful, I tried all the steps still doesn't work. It is only happening with one of my families, I tried moving them out, moving them with others nothing is working :( I am super sad!
Hey there!! Are we sure that we don't have any broken script mods or cc left in the Mods folder (those could also be functional cc aka bunk beds or some other furniture, cas related mods, ui cheats, mccc, things like that)?
We can also try to delete the localthumbcache file from the TS4 folder after getting rid of the broken mods so that we delete the game's cache that piled up over time
Can we take a look into the Mods, delete what might be broken & install the latest versions for your mods instead?
@@Darielle Thank you so much for the answer, I only had 3 mods installed for 3 types of hair which i deleted. But unfortunately after i installed them the game didn't work anymore. I will try the part with localthumbcash.
Update: I reinstalled the game on a new computer and it worked, probably if I have done the same thing on my old computer it would have worked also. I probably missed some steps or something.
tysm!! my game finally works after who knows how long! ilysm
So glad to hear that!! 🙏
And do we delete the old Electronic Arts folder after the copying is done?
Yes, but make sure once again that all of your files (Saves, Tray, Screenshots and cc have been successfully copied into your new folders)
Don’t know if you’ll see this but does this work if you have no mods or cc?
i have been stressing since the latest update because of this error and your first hack fixed my game! thank you sm ❤
omg i didnt think it was going to work but it did, youre doing gods work, thank you😁💖
I spent 30 minuets trying to fix my game and doing both ways you gave, just to realize my sim was on a date at the boba shop and it was her being there making it fail to load 😃 not going there ever again lol.. THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!!!! Saving it for the future :))
Thank you so much! Now my game works again, your a lifesaver!
You’re welcome ❤️ hope everything works smoothly after update!
I have a problem with my game bills
It literally won't let me pay for them.
I get the option to click on it and my sim does the "pay the bills" animation but then nothing happens everything stays the same
I even moved my mods and the scripts I have to check if that was it and still nothing happens
+82$ appears and nothing happens from there
Can you help me? :(
PS: Does the Tray folder affect anything?
I don’t have any mods. I pay for all my expansions. Can somebody help me!! It’s been going on for weeks now. Uninstall the app re put the game on. Like help. I am lost for words on what to do 😢
but what if I want to use those script mods after I deleted them? can I put my original ea folder into my thing again or will the game error just keep happening if I have those mods?
So if we want to have the same mods in the game, we can try to:
- write the name of each mod (from the original mods folder) - you can tell what are the mods by searching ts4script inside the mods search bar - on a piece of paper/notes (so we know what mods we used)
- google each mod
- ONLY download those mods that have been UPDATED
I know you want to have all of your mods back, but the thing is, if we continue to put mods that have not been updated, those might still cause issues in the game!
That’s why I stand for only installing mods that have been updated, bcs I want you to fully enjoy the game & not have issues in the game anymore
Truly hope I made sense 🙏 let me know if there is anything else that I could’ve explain better
Thank you so much! Followed the steps in the first half and im able to play again!
Sending many blessings your way 🙏🙏
once i remove the script files and boot it back up, can i put them back?
Add them back but make sure none of them are outdated or corrupted. maybe download better exceptions, it checks your mods for outdated mods or corrupted files. what i did, i just added mods in sections and started up the game to see if it worked with the mods, if it didnt you'd get a notif which mod is broken. I'd recommend deleting it or maybe updating the mod
idk what to do.. i was in sims, i wanted some other mods so i downloaded them, then i tried going back in, when i got passed the loading screen then to the worlds it said “the game failed to load it is recommended that you relaunch the game” i took the mods out of my folder and it still is not working :( i really need help
We can try to do the following :)
Just basically resetting the Mods folder (make sure to turn on mods & cc > close your game > rename your Mods 📂 into Mods old > open the game > exit it straightaway
And now we should see a brand new Mods folder into your Sims 4 folder!
Here we need to make sure that we ONLY put updated mods & cc, so be sure to download the latest versions, at least for your script mods!
Do let me know if this works 🤗
@@Darielle do I delete the old file?
@@Darielle I didn’t delete it, and it finally opened, but let me know just in case it makes more complications!
hey girl! i don’t have any space to copy and paste my sims 4 game save what do i do?
Gotcha!! So you can try to:
1. Free up some space by removing some unuseful things from your Desktop, Downloads folder, sims 4 Screenshots folder or by uninstalling certain apps that you no longer use
Or
2. Cut and paste your Sims 4 folder to an external drive (ssd/hdd), to a flash drive or onto another computer
Or
3. Backup your folder using a backup app (but make sure that all of your files have been safely saved)
Every methods didnt work for me. i've even reinstalled my sims, used BE mods to track broken mods, the problem (failed to load the game) still there. Is there anyone who have experienced this? and how to fix it? im getting desperate :')
You are absolutely the best I’ve been searching for videos for so long and you helped a lot!!!!❤
So glad they helped you!! 💕 Sending much love!!
Thank you so much this is a life saver! but now I have to play without wicked whims D:
I'm the one to be grateful, really!! But wait, have you tried to install the latest update? If the latest update works fine in your game, you can still play with that mod!
@@Darielle Yes I have tried but then I realized I have more script mods I didn't even know about! I am going through them and trying to figure it out, hopefully it works
Fingers crossed it all worked out for you!!
@@Darielle It did thank you!
Hi how did you resolve it? The same problem is happening with me with my wicked whims. It keeps saying game not loading w just that.
i got to 6:10 and when i go to open it it says game has run out of memory...
And if you look into my pc, is there enough free space on both of your drives?
Sims4 doesn't even open, tried them all. please help i just got my computer back from moving and i've been so excited to play for 6 months and now i cant. i dont want to not play sims4 again. Im literally so sad :(((
Here I am!! Soo did you also try resetting your Mods folder?
Please try to do it this way!
Here are the steps:
1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game
2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on)
3. Open your game & close it straightaway
4. A new Mods folder should pop up
5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder
6. Download the latest versions for your script mods
7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder
Fingers crossed it all goes well!!!
hello! i did all the methods and nothing worked i try every time but it keeps doing the same things..
do you have any advice ?
Hey there!!
Yesss, I’m more than happy to share some tips that have worked for me!
1. Try to delete the following files from your the sims 4 folder (doing this clears the cache): localthumbcache.package (or localthumbcache), gameversion.txt (or gameversion)
2. If you still have cc & mods in your Mods folder, we can try to do the 50/50 method
That means:
Divinding your mods files (50-50)
Aka
50% (1st half) of your cc & mods files are gonna stay in the mods folder
50% (2nd half) of your cc & mods goes into a separate folder (create a folder on your Desktop/on your other drive if you don’t have enough space & cut & paste that half there)
Now we’re going to launch the game with that half of our cc in the mods folder
Does it launch?
If so, the problematic cc file is in the other half
If it still does not launch, then we have some problematic files in our Mods folder
If it does not launch, then we’re gonna cut + paste one file at a time from the Mods folder to the folder we’ve created on desktop/other drive & LAUNCH the game to see if that particular file is problematic
Keep doing this (putting one mod away & launching game) till we figure out what cc/mod is the problem!
We’ll know which one is problematic when we transfer the file & the game launches!
So once your game launches, remove that last file & then start putting back your files from that other folder (aka the Desktop/drive folder) ONE by ONE & launching the game to see if there is a problematic file in that batch as well!
If the game stops working, then see what file you’ve last copied, that one is problematic and we need to get rid of it!
Hope it all makes sense 🙏 and hope you find this helpful!
What does it mean when it only happens when you try to load in a specific world?? it wont let me load into sulani which is a bummer because i JUST got island living
It’s still not working…I don’t know what to do I followed all the steps in the video what should I do now?
First of all, did you get rid of the outdated mods that you might have in your game (such as MCC, UI cheats, More Columns)?
If so, you can then try to rename your Mods folder into Mods old (with your game completely closed) and do NOT delete your Mods old folder as you'll need to copy your files from there > open your game > close it straightaway > a new Mods folder should pop up. Here you need to paste all of your files that you have in your Mods old folder (but make sure you get rid of any outdated script mods that you might have beforehand and install the latest versions for them in the new Mods folder)
Then open your game & everything should be good to go
Let me know how it goes!!
I deleted all the broken files from mod conflict detector and nothing in there when I scan is broken then also my game is loading very slow because it would take like an hour for my game to load or more than a hour
And no I didn’t delete the Mcc including UI cheats and more columns because when I scanned my mods folder they are not the ones that’s broken
@@Darielle um my game still saying there is a error code so you mind if you put a list for me on how to do it again pls
Hello there, MCD is kinda outdated, hence why it might not show all of your incompatibile/out of date mods.
It's always best to remove all of your script mods & install the latest versions whenever an update comes out.
So you can now try to:
1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game
2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on)
3. Open your game & close it straightaway
4. A new Mods folder should pop up
5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder
6. Download the latest versions for your script mods
7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder
Let me know how it goes!
Does this work even now in general
This game has the worst mod support ever.
This didn't helo me at all.Wastet my time with keep pausing and trying.Too fast.And most of the things are not same.
it worked the first method but now its doing the same thing again :( im going to uninstall and reinstall now. this is the last hope ive done both steps :(
Hi there, Happy New Year!! 😊
Did we put some broken/outdated script mods into the Mods folder by any chance?
Can we try to get rid of all script mods (things like ui cheats, mc command center, slice of life and so on) and see if this solves the issue?
@@Darielle hello thank you for the response, and happy new year!
I will try that the thing is I don't have any cc or use any cheats the only cheat I use is 'make Sims happy and disable needs decay' I don't use cc or mods so it's strange I'm getting this error. Mods folder is empty.
Can we also try to remove the following files from The Sims 4 folder? These are called localthumbcache, options & gameversion (the first one is a cache file aka a temporary file that will be regenerated after opening the game; deleting the second one will reset your game options - we're doing this to make sure that there is no mod issue in the game as it disables mods and cc; the third one is also a temporary file that will be regenerated after launching the game, pretty similar to a cache file)
I truly hope this helps 🙏 if not, we might wanna try repairing the game as well, but make sure you backup (aka copy + paste the entire EA folder somewhere on your computer) the EA folder beforehand :)
@@Darielle Hello i just tried that, still the same thing but with a new error code :S 102:85712702:5515bbec i heard it might be the detective career that's bugged
I have a problem where every time i try to open the sims i get a small window that says “there is a problem with your games setup, please install your game” and i don’t know what to do
It's always best to remove all of your script mods & install the latest versions whenever an update comes out.
If deleting & updating your mods does not work for you, you can try this:
1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game
2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on)
3. Open your game & close it straightaway
4. A new Mods folder should pop up
5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder
6. Download the latest versions for your script mods
7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder
Let me know how it goes!
Am i able to add the mods back once i delete them, and move them from my backup to the original?
uhm when I deleted the localthumb thing it removed all my mods? Is that supposed to happwn
It shouldn’t happen this, are we sure that we deleted the one from the sims 4 folder (not a file from our mods folder)?
Also, if we take a look into the recycle bin, can we see our cc, right click on them & restore?
Hope we can figure this out together!
@@Darielle yeah I forgot that I took my mods out of my folder when I went into my game and i thought it deleted my mods 😭
That’s okay!! Glad you found it & put it back into the game! Is everything else alright? 🫶🏻
Will it still work if i delete all my mods? Cause i have curseforge app for sims mods
So we can either go into our mods folder and delete all mods (aka the ones that end with ts4script as well as any kind of file that adds features to the game - things like real life mod, high school mod, restaurant mod and so on - so NOT cc aka clothes/build items)
Orrr
We can do that & reset the mods folder
Hope this makes sense 🙏
Hi i had to delete the mods that glitched my game but i really want them, is there a way to fix this issue? i already tried downloading them again but they don’t seem to want to work…
Hello! Resetting the Mods folder & putting the fresh (re-downloaded) mods could be the way to go! Make sure you download the latest versions for them (if the creators did not release an update for them, they might still be broken, but we can try this to see if it makes a difference)
I’ll write here the steps for resetting the mods folder
1. Enable cc & mods in the game (game options)
2. Apply changes (if those do not apply, i have a fix for that ua-cam.com/video/ejP49zTg7FM/v-deo.html > close game
3. Rename the Mods folder into Mods old (keep the Mods old folder in your TS4 folder) - do this with your game completely closed
4. Remove these files from The Sims 4 folder: localthumbcache & gameversion (this way we remove any temporary corrupted mod files, similar to getting rid of cache!)
5. Launch the game & close it rightaway
6. A new Mods folder should appear in TS4 folder (make sure it has the resource.cfg file inside!)
7. Copy all of your cc - clothes and furniture - (but no script mods or functional cc, things like life mods, restaurant mods etc) from your Mods old to the newly generated Mods folder
8. Download the updates for the mods (if there are any! If there are not, we gotta be patient a bit & wait till those updates get released🙏)
9. Place your updated script mods into your newly generated Mods folder
so is it okay to delete the old ea document after everything solved right?
If you did double check that all files are copied (your saves, tray, cc & screenshots - you can check by comparing the number of files in each of those folders - the old ea & new ea), then yes, you can remove it
TY SO MUCH! THIS WAS SO HELPFUL
That's the least I could do 🥺 thank you for letting me know it all went well, hope you have an awesome day
Didnt work👍👍
what if the game slot is still saved in the loaded game but when you try to play it the sims don't appear, they told me to made a new household and there is unocuppied written on the townies house? I really ask for your help please
Hey!! Did you update the game?
Also, if we try to check the Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Saves folder, is the save (the number of the save there?
We can check if there are any other saves onto the computer by going onto the search bar on the taskbar > type in Saves and see if any other folders show up!
@@Darielle it happened after I updated the game 😓, my sims was super lagging so I deleted some files like localthumb, lastexception, and other junk files to stop the lag. then I downloaded some home cc which used the tray folder, I was able to continue the resumed game but it went like "__" and the sims disappeared, so I deleted all the mods I had and then replaced it with the latest version but it didn't show any improvements to the game still "__" then I tried to restart the game as in this video but when I tried to play the saved slot it looked like an error, I was told to create a new household when I tried to play the saved slot and the townies disappeared even when I pointed the arrow at their house their family profile photo didn't appear
@@Darielle is it because of the tray folder? I didn't even have any mods and all my CC worked fine
Yesss, exactly!! Did we delete the tray folder?
That’s the one that includes all of your sims (so not your progress and saves, but the sims characters and the houses/lots)
Wouldn't deleting the script files cause the mods to stop working? And deleting the PKG files will just completely get rid of the mods all together
Hello, I want to ask, after the first step I made was successful and then I copied the mod that I copied electronic art again, did it have problems again? or do I download the same mod again?
Thanks in advance, the first tip really helps my problem!!☺☺
i did this and it worked but now my mods are not showing up in the game can you help me with that?

@@Darielle thank you!!
I deleted all mods and it helped and installed new but the one like mc command center dont work and dont show up so did i delete something in my pc that makes mods work
But what about wanting the mods back in your game?
If you wanna put your script mods back, you'll have to redownload the latest version for them, just to make sure that we're no longer encountering game issues
Can I redownload some of my script mods after?
Sure you can, but again, make sure you're installing the latest versions only!!
@@Dariellehow can I proof this?
so i tried your way of this and it worked when i removed all my mods. but when i put my mods back then it had the error again. does that mean that I need to delete some of my mods cause maybe something isnt workinig?.
So here’s what we can do about it 🫶🏻
- go into our mods folder
- type in the search bar ts4script
- write all of our mods down on a piece of paper (so that we can later on know what mods we’ve used & install the updates)
- delete all those mods that end with ts4script
- search in the search bar each mod (like type in the name of your mods one by one & delete any other files that show up there, some do end with package)
- delete any kind of functional cc (things like more columns, ui mods, life mods, toddler mods, restaurant/school mods, anything that adds features in the game)
- our clothes & furniture cc don’t usually get broken , so we can keep those
- remove the localthumbcache file from the sims 4 folder
hey so nothing worked It was weird cuz I also never had corrupted files, I deleted all the files to redownload it completely but I don't remember how to really download it now do you supposedly have the links?
What links are you referring to? Script mods links? Let me know how can I be of help :)
I have a question can I download mcc command center again after the repair or I’m gonna still have the same problem?
The little bop is so annoying and unnecessary.
Also none of this worked. I have no mods and resetting it didn't do anything to help the problem.
I have the pets and dogs pack on steam so I originally had sims4 downloaded from steam, but when I download it to the EA app and go in I obviously don’t have the pack so what am I supposed to do?
Hello 🫶🏻 so here’s the thing
We need to link our steam account to the ea app (so that our games & packs show up in the ea app)
To do that:
- install the ea app
- login in via steam (there’s a steam icon when you’re trying to log in, if you’re logged in, then log out & use that steam icon, make sure we know the ea account if we have some other packs there as well before logging out!)
- then you’re going to see a window that asks you if you want to link your steam account to the ea app, so click yes
@@Darielle tysm
can we delete the ‘electronic arts old’ folder then ?
Hey there! If you did copy and paste all of your files from there (namely, your tray, saves, your cc snd screenshots) to the new EA folder, then yes, you can delete it
@@Darielle i didn’t care to transfer anything. i was fine starting fresh.. would it still be okay to delete? sorry im too paranoid that i might accidentally delete smth i shouldn’t lol
So inside your Electronic Arts folder you can only find files related to your old sims, houses, saves, screenshots, mods and cc and also the options that you've set into your game (such as full screen mode/ windowed full screen, mods & cc enabled, ui aspect, sounds, basically any settings that you've made in your Game Options, after deleting those, your setings will be the default ones, but you can adjust them to your needs once again).
So there's no need to worry about game/ actual program files since those are located into a different folder (into your C drive)
So if you decide to start fresh and have no mods, no old families, houses or screenshots, you're good go!
I dont know what origin is, I went on EA and I left clicked and nothing came up, no repair. What do I do HELPP!!
Did we enable online features? Are we connected to the wi-fi while doing this?
What if you bought sims 4 on steam and not orgin? How do you repair ts4 on steam?
You need to click on your Library > right click on sims 4 > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files. Let me know if it helps!
@@Darielle okay thank you! i will comment back if it worked or not🥰
Sure, definitely keep me updated! 💗
can i add back the mods after?
Hey there!! If we're talking about cc (like clothes & furniture), then yes!!
But don't put any script mods (aka mods that add gameplay features, certain functionalities) in the new folder!!
We need to update those script mods - so only put updated mods in your new folder - (if there are any updates! If not, we just gotta wait until the creator releases an update for that)
Hope it helps & wishing you all the best 🙏
can i backup my EA folder to my desktop only?
TYSM I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO PLAY MY GAME FOR LIKE 4 MONTHS 😭
That's really the least I could do to help you, thank you so much for being here!! 🙏
I genuinely hope you have the best time ever simming!!
what if we paste it to icloud drive ? I dont know what local drive is and i dont have a flashdriver
Yes, you can put it there as well, but make sure you only use the NEW folder on your actual computer for putting the updated mods
@@Darielle thank you so so much !!!🫶🏾
@@foreverenyia 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
What if your not using Origin when playing Sims 4? I'm using Steam. It doesn't have that option for repairing your game. So this part is kind of... well doesn't really apply to me.
So since I save my original game can I delete the old EA file?
I don’t use Mods or CCs and was getting saving error code 0 and I did everything I could, but I still can’t “save” unless I choose to play for a loooong time and the. “Save as” 😢 My saves must be corrupted but I don’t even have half the stuff downloaded and I don’t do mods or CCs. I’m going to be really pissed if my 24+ generation families are gone.
Is the next step uninstalling sims 4 and reinstalling or is it unsalvagable because the saves are, for some reason, corrupted?
Tysm I only had one mod that actually was the problem and I was so dumb and hacked my computer because I thought someone hacked me and I couldn’t get it out anymore 👏🏻💀💀💀💀
Ahhh you’re soo welcome 🙏❤️ so sorry you had to go through this, but everything’s good now, right?
I’m here if you ever run into mod issues and stuff & hope you’re doing well!
Sending lots of blessings your way!
@@Darielle tsymmmmmm🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
my problem is only the sims4 legacy will load, even if I choose get to work or the sims4 base game
Hey there! We can try to switch the game to the normal version if your computer can run it ^^
Just open your EA/Origin app, right click on TS4 > Game Properties / view properties > Advanced > switch to the The Sims 4 64bit version
Do let me know if it works for you :)
thanks you so much that first part of the video really helped me, now i am able to play
So glad you’re able to play the game!! 🙏🙏🙏
Hey! this has been helpful but how do i repair if i have the game on steam :(
I have no idea what to do it still doesn't work i'm going to cry and probably delete the game because i've been trying to fix this for days and it still won't work...
Hey there, we can surely work it out! How about we try to reset the Mods folder this way?
Here are the steps:
1. Make sure you have mods&cc enabled in your game > close your game
2. Rename your Mods folder into Mods old (but keep your Mods old folder bcs we'll need it later on)
3. Open your game & close it straightaway
4. A new Mods folder should pop up
5. Copy all of your cc (but no script mods!!) from your Mods old to the new Mods folder
6. Download the latest versions for your script mods
7. Put your script mods into your new Mods folder
Do let me know how it all goes 😁
@@Darielle THANK U I FINALLY FIXED IT💖💖💖💖💖💖
well actually (you) did
@@MyNuggetsAreGone ayyy i'm cheering for youuu! but you did the work, truly!!
hope you have a fun time playing with your fams, doing challenges and all that good stuff
Thank you so much you’re a lifesaver ❤❤❤
You’re so welcome ❤️ so grateful to be able to help 🫶🏻
I get the error but I can still play normally
Really? Do you also play with mods and cc?
Happened for me then it stopped
Going back into my game rn
This made no sense to me and I've never been more lost 😢
Hiya, is our game not loading at all?
What works is resetting the mods folder
That means = renaming the mods folder into mods old (but keeping it there)
Opening the game & enabling mods & cc in game options
Closing the game
Relaunching it & exiting it straightaway
A new Mods folder will pop up
Here we can install the latest updates for our mods & copy CC only (so no mods) from our Mods old folder 🙏
if i deleted my all of my .package files does it mean i have to redowload them after?? cuz i have too many mods:(( AAAAA HELP
Yes, but it depends what kind of package files we had
Did we have package files that were mods (like adult, toddlers, school, restaurant, life mods aka things that add features)
Or did we only have cc package files (like clothes, build items, makeup etc)
Also
Do we still have those in our bin? We can try to look them up & see if there are updates for them
If there are no updates for those cc that add features, then I think it’s be better for us to wait for updates, bcs those might break our game if they are not up to date
May i know why i cant enter the world? I alr had the packs
Could be due to broken/old script mods
Deleting the ts4script files after update + google those mods and seeing if there are any updates (so you can have the proper version for the mods) is what worked wonders for me, as well as resetting the backing up the current mods folder + resetting it
Didn't work. what do i do now?
Hello, is it possible that we have some more broken cc or mods in the mods folder?
Do you know how to fix it if it happens on ps4
Did this happen after update?
We can try to completely close ps4
Unplug it for 5 mins
Plug it once again
Restart it
Try to launch sims 4
Let me know if that makes a difference 🙏
@@Darielle still says the same thing I’m not sure how you’d apply what you did in your video to a ps4 by finding the file. But this happed after my wifi suddenly disconnected & reconnected ever since it’s said the following “Game loading in progress”
I am getting this message but I’m playing on PS4 and I’ve never downloaded any CC content.
Thank you So SO SOOO MUCH! Now I can play again! ❤️❤️
my game won't load like it won't open unless i reset the ea folder every time so like everytime i like exit the game and try to go back on it wont work unless i reset the ea folder its been broken since the update like 2 weeks ago i think that big update was. i'm not sure what to do help aahhaha x
Firstly, you can try to delete any adult mods you'd have in your Mods folder. If that doesn't seem to be of help, you can try to take out all of your script mods & install the latest versions for those.
The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/WncYhAAtKcM/v-deo.html)
Last but not least, if you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ua-cam.com/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/v-deo.html
Let me know if it helps! 🤗
@@Darielle YOU AHVE SAVED ME FOR THE SECOND TIME 🥳 tysm it was some custom food I have been struggling for 2 weeks because of some custom food 😹😹 xoxo🤗
@@oliviakingsnorth5477 ayyyyyy, thanks for sharing this with me, I'm so happy I could be able to help you out in a way! Sending lots of hugs your way 🤗🤗
My problem is that my game keeps freezing when I click on load game 😔 I've tried everything!! But I really don't want to lose my saves! I have already lost them once because of a glitch. I tried your methods but it isn't working! I don't think it's an issue with my mods/cc 😭
THANK YOU I LOVE YOU YOUR YOU SAVED MY GAME AAAAA SO HAPPY
🙏🙏
Thank you sooo much. It works!🥳❤️ Im so happy☀️
You're welcome! 🫶🏻❤️ hope you enjoy the game to the fullest!
I cant rename the folder bc it says its still in use despite me closing the ea app
Please try to press ctrl shift c at the same time > go to task manager -> if you see the sims 4 app/ea app in that list, click it & then end task. This makes sure that the apps are completely closed
@@Darielle i already tried that but i think i managed to fix the error. thanks for responding btw
What do i do if i dont use orgins..? I use steam/EA... so i dont know what do at this point
This usually has to do with broken mods & files aka the mods folder, so in any case (ea/origin/steam), resetting the mods folder worked wonders for me
1. Turn on cc & mods
2. Apply changes (if those do not apply, i have a fix for that ua-cam.com/video/ejP49zTg7FM/v-deo.html > close game
3. Rename the Mods folder into Mods old (keep the Mods old folder in your TS4 folder) - do this with your game completely closed
4. Remove these files from The Sims 4 folder: localthumbcache & gameversion (this way we remove any temporary corrupted mod files, similar to getting rid of cache!)
5. Launch the game & close it rightaway
6. A new Mods folder should appear in TS4 folder (make sure it has the resource.cfg file inside!)
7. Copy all of your cc - clothes and furniture - (but no script mods or functional cc, things like life mods, restaurant mods etc) from your Mods old to the newly generated Mods folder
8. Download the updates for the mods (if there are any! If there are not, we gotta be patient a bit & wait till those updates get released🙏)
9. Place your updated script mods into your newly generated Mods folder
@@Darielle Thank you!
