If the problem persists, close your game and remove half of your files again. Repeat the process until you stop experiencing problems. Once you've stopped experiencing the problem, begin adding in your mods one at a time and then loading your save again. Eventually, after adding one of the mods, you will start experiencing the bug again. This means that the mod you added back is what's causing your problem.
Quit your game and remove the mod you just added back. Check that you have all the necessary mod packs. Some game mods require expansion packs, game packs, or stuff packs in order to work properly - otherwise, they won't work right or will cause problems. If you've accidentally put a mod in your game that needs a pack you don't have, you'll start getting errors or glitchy behavior, and you'll either need to remove it or get the pack.
Sites like Mod The Sims will list any required packs on the download page, and modders using independent sites will typically list any required packs as well. Update all mods after patches. Major or even minor updates to The Sims 4 can often break mods.
While the game will automatically disable mods after an update, you need to update your mods before you enable them again, or else you can encounter game-breaking bugs. Keep track of all the mods you download and check the modder's download page for information on updates.
Many modders will have mod status pages listing whether a mod is compatible with the latest patch or needs to be updated. Modders can go inactive. If a mod hasn't received updates for several patches, remove it from your game. Mods are only available for the computer version of The Sims 4. Yes No. Not Helpful 0 Helpful 0.

Take half of the items you have in your Mods folder and paste them into this folder. Test your game and see if the problem persists. If not, you know the problem content is in that other batch of mods.
If so, the trouble mod is still in your game, and you'll need to repeat the process again. This can be a bit tedious and time-consuming, but sometimes, it's the easiest way to identify troublesome mods when you have a big folder worth of content. There are several ways you can organize your Mods folder. I like to do mine by categories, as seen in the picture above.
This doesn't really do anything special during the gameplay, but it allows me to easily find content in my folders, install new content, and delete or update old content. You can organise your Mods folder in any way which makes the most sense to you! You can do it by creator, by categories like shoes, clothes, hair, etc. This still happens in The Sims 4 , so the easiest way to avoid long loading times when downloading mods, is to rename any files and delete any special characters in the title.
Just right-click on the file, select rename, and then delete any special characters and spaces. Make sure you don't change the extension type it should still end in. If you have too many files to do this all manually, there's a great program called the Bulk Rename Utility which will help you rename your files easily.
Download and install the free program from here. Click the option that says Bulk Rename Here. The program will open up and you'll see your Mods folder there. Highlight everything in the folder, and then go to the section that says Replace 3 , just below the Mods window. In the Replace box, enter your cursor and just hit the space bar once.
This will delete any spaces in the file names. Now go to the section that says Remove 5. Tick the "Sym. This will delete any symbols. The Mods window will illustrate what the files will look like once you're done; all spaces and special characters should be gone.
If you have sub-folders, you'll have to click into each of them individually to rename the files inside. Follow the same method described above. This method is a bit risky, and one I only recommend to experienced modders of The Sims. Merging files really can speed up your loading time, but it can also cause issues, as there's no way to "un-merge" files once you merge them, and if one of the files breaks within your merged file, you'll have to delete everything merged with it to get rid of the problematic file.
However, merging files can be a great way to speed up your game and organise your game even more; for example, you can merge files by creator, by date, by item type i.
First, you'll need to register for a free account and download the Sims 4 Studio program. The Sims 4 Studio is a free-fan made program for both Windows and Mac users. A window will open up. Click on the Add button and then navigate to your Mods folder in the window. Highlight all the mods you want to merge together, and select open. Click on the Merge button. The program will prompt you to rename your new merged. Give it a unique name and select Save. Once the status bar finishes it will take longer if you have a lot of files to merge , a pop-up will appear saying you've merged the packages successfully.
The program will automatically open up to your Mods folder when done and you'll see both your newly merged. You can safely delete the old files, OR you can copy and paste them somewhere else as a backup for example, make an Unmerged Mods folder on your desktop and keep them there , which will make it easier if you do have to delete one of the files in the future. In the case that you do need to delete a file that you've merged, if you've kept the un-merged files copied somewhere, simply delete the individual file you want to get rid of, and delete the merged.
Then go back into Sims 4 Studio, merge the remaining files as explained above and then put the new merged. Do you know any good Sims custom content sites? Question: How can I find a Sims custom content website to download from without a membership? Answer: Your Electronic Arts folder is located in your Documents folder. You'll need to navigate there not to the Origin Games folder to find your Sims 4 folder where you put your tray files and mods.
Question: Every time I try to download a custom content clothing it always says I need a new version for my PC and go to the software and publisher to find out what version I need and I do not know how to do that.
How do I get the right version of the Sims 4? Answer: You need to update your Sims 4 game. Answer: Everyone does. Answer: There's no limit, but too much can cause your game to load slow or lag.
For reference, I've had 6GB of content in my game at times and it still runs okay, but your mileage may vary depending on your computer. Question: If you have the sims on two computers with one origin account, will the custom content be on both?
Answer: Some of them work with the base game and some don't; it best to read the instructions from the creator to see if their content is base game compatible or if you need any DLC. Answer: CC is custom-content; user created content things made by Sims players like you and me!
CC can be anything from new clothes, furniture, hair and more! Answer: It works exactly the same with downloading and installing custom content and mods. I also have my game and most people downloaded via Origin. Answer: It's best to just check the page you've downloaded from, as the custom content creator will mention if the CC is base game compatible or needs DLC. Answer: Custom content only disappears if you physically delete the files from your game.
But if someone has removed their content from their site, it's a good idea to check if the content is still up to date or compatible with your game by asking them! Question: How can I install a mod if I got the Sims 4 online and did not buy it? I have my game on my Xbox one console.
Answer: Unfortunately, custom content isn't supported on the console versions of the games. My script mods were not working. I have also done the following to troubleshoot my script mods. I know how to download cc and all, but I just got a new laptop and I downloaded the Sims. Sadly, I can't fimd the Mods folder anywhere. I don't even have the Electronic Arts folder in the Documents folder-thing.
I don't know what went wrong but I would appreciate some help or advice. So after doing all the steps besides the Winrar cause it doesn't work on mac I lunched Sims and the first thing i see is a notice that says "Maxis does not prescreen or support mods.. I use origin. And origin users do not have their game in the electronic arts folder.
