Could be due to that, but also make sure you don’t have any outdated script mods! I always write down all of my ts4script mods on a notes app & then delete all files that end with ts4script from the mods folder That and/or resetting the Mods folder does wonders 🙏
Please try the steps mentioned in this tutorial BEST Fix For Sims 4 CAS Stuck on Loading Screen & NOT Opening (100% WORKS Create a Sim Not Working) th-cam.com/video/uPaBcELklZg/w-d-xo.html
Here’s what will help you 1. Go into Documents 2. Right click the Electronic Arts Folder 3. Rename it into Electronic Arts Old (Keep it there, don’t remove it) 4. Open your game (now it should open since we reset our EA folder) 5. Time to put our files back into the game so close the game completely (you should notice a new EA folder in your Docs, that’s where we are gonna put our files) 6. Go into the EA old 7. the Sims 4 > Saves folder > select all files > copy 8. Go into the new EA folder > TS4 > Saves folder > paste all of your files there 9. The same thing applies to our Tray, Screenshots and cc! So 10. Go into the EA old > TS4 > Tray folder > select all files > copy 11. Go into the new EA > The Sims 4 > Tray folder > paste all files Do the same with your Mods & Screenshots! If you do not have those, then skip this step PS. make sure we don’t copy any mods (aka files that end with ts4script or any kind of functional cc - you can tell by their names, things like restaurant mods, life mods, school mods, toddler mods etc) Clothes, makeup, accessories, build cc can be copied! Once we’re done copying all those files into the new EA folder, we can open the game & it should work!

@@Darielle Hey, I was wondering how do you reset the mods folder, sorry I’m new to this and my screen has been stuck I’ve updated the few mods I have and it’s still stuck.
The thing is, my Cas is loading and I can hear the music but I cant see it cause of the loading screen. I know its a problem with my mods but I don't really want to go one by one to find out what is causing the issue. Any tips?
I’ve reset the game and I don’t have any mods at all just cc that i’ve already cleaned out but the game won’t stop loading when i go on cas or try to edit one of my sims. Its been like this for a few days probably because of the update idk what to do
@@Darielle I reset the electronic arts folder and the mods folder and it’s still the same :( i’m not sure what else to do i’ve freed up lots of space on my pc too just in case it was bc i was low on disc space but it’s still not working properly in cas
I followed every step in the video and it still wont let me in my game when I press resume It shows the loading screen but it dont let me in the game it keeps on loading pls help me
does anyone know if this will get fixed? cause i play with the mods mentioned and removing them helped (i got stuck on the loading screen to cas), but i want them back in my game 😭
All these videos are the same steps but different titles… I deleted all my old files and it’s still taking forever to load???? These videos are not helpful
ever since the new update it automatically updated for me and i recovered my mods and everything but when it comes to editing my sims it stuck on the loading screen, i have the road to fame and slice of life mods do you think that caused it?
@@zmxxv2295 I get you 🙏 then disabling then within the app should do the job, that paired with updating them so that they are compatible with the latest version of the game
When I remove the Mod folder, the game load real quick and the UI build mode is still appear. But if I put the Mod folder back, the game load quite slow and the UI build mod did not appear. So I think maybe some of my CC is outdated or broken. Then I try an each folder in Mod folder, the game is normal ??? 🥲🥹 But if I put a whole Mod folder back, the game taking so long and the UI build mode disappear again 🥲😭 Did anyone got the same issue like me ?? 😭😭
Hiya!! The broken script mods usually act like this, so please make sure that you write down the names of all ts4script files & delete all files & then try to launch the game. If it works, it means that those mods need to be updated & reinstalled (only if they have been released this month)
Do you have sims national bank installed ... I removed this from my game and it fixed the issue I was having that was what you were describing. I'm really heavy on my mods so anything I use that's like a script mod like this. I have a word document in alphabetical order and I go through it once a month and check for updates from the creators and replace files. This has helped me identify which scrip mods are out of date and which are not. Sounds like a lengthy thing to do but I have over 100GB of mods and it barely takes me an hour to do because I have all the links ready! Hope this helps :)
wait, do i need to take off the clothes, makeup, hair and stuff? I literally have like 10k mods just with that, and ofc the mcc pack, wcc, collums, all updated. I need to take off all, and then put it again in the paste?
I'm having the same issue as most of the other comments here, everything works fine with my cc expect for my CAS. The loading screen just keeps on going and going. I have wicked whims and the columns mod could that be why CAS won't load? I've tried opening it from new game and by clicking modify in cas, nothing is making it load any quicker
I'm still struggling with this; I have managed to work on some things but still struggling with getting into CAS or loading a lot and coming out of it after saving. I removed WW, Columns, MCC and UI. Non of these had an impact with the issue so I put them all back. I'm still working through some other script mods that could cause this like TOOL and I know sims national bank has caused issues in the past but not the main one like the add on too it.
i play in mac and i dont use any mods and ts4 but my household wont loadd, it can go to manage worlds but when i press play houshold, it wont load, pls help me
It’s mostly due to broken mods/cc, so if you have any of these mods installed, please try to remove them (more columns, ui cheats, mccc, Ww, unlimited likes and dislikes, more traits)
I also have a problem with moving a certain sim into my household and it gets stuck on the screen that shows money transfer & which sim u want to move in :( but yes definitely when I edit or change my sim into new outfits, the loading takes forever :( ever since I updated the game.
For me it’s on one specific lot. I haven’t done anything, but when I returned to the sims after a break the lot is completely broken. Everytime I try to enter build mode, or enter the lot in any way the game infinity loads. It sucks cause I’ve spend months on this build. Whenever I start a new game and load the lot it works in build mode. But as soon as I exit , and try to play on it it breaks and infinity loads again. The lot works fine though if I remove all furniture, but I just don’t feel like redecorating from scratch. I just don’t get it cause I didn’t make any changes to it between the time I took a break, and came back.
So... I have the same problem but it only affects me when I load one house that I downloaded off a web. The build had too many stacked leaves and everything that is too heavy for the game to handle. I can go to it using travel but I can't even delete it. Cause when I try to do so it can't even save cause it gets stuck too or if I try to delete the whole lot its just stuck loading again. Is there a way to delete this one lot by files or something?? Pls help. Like I could delete the objects one by one carefully then save then restart if it crashes again but its gonna take FOREVER
Same here. It's very frustrating when you have all these wonderful lots but can't use them because it's stuck ob the loading screen. Did you find a solution? Maybe we have to the wait for more updates...
If you’re on windows, you can press ctrl alt del at the same time > task manager > select the sims 4 > end task (keep in mind that this won’t ensure the fact that your game will be saved aka your save that you’re currently playing)
I have the same as well that I have to restart my laptop but still as a person who has never played this game in a long time, is giving me troubled times to even play this game
Dear thank you for the video. i have the same problem, but when i delete the mods its works. but when i returend the back its stuck. what can I do? I never had problem with the mods. I dont have cc or ww or cas. can you help me please? thank you !!
cas doesn't work at all for me whether its the fulleditmode cheat or the command center it wont load. i don't have any mods that are for cas or anything and its not my mods that's causing the problem it is the update that has completely messed the game. before cas broke the preferences menu was missing there was nothing there then suddenly this update happens and now cas is broke and ea aren't moving their asses to get it fixed. sorry for the long comment
I don’t have any mods, only expension pacs and also have the same problem. I have a MacBook which makes things difficult because i dont have the same files in the Electronic Arts folder. I reinstall both EA app and The Sims 4 and nothing worked. Is there anything left to do? I’m realny losing my mind while making another family which is not gonna survive 😭
HELP ME PLEASE I tried EVERY WAY but it's same???? All I see is loading screen😭😭 I dont wanna delete the game.... it's hard for me to re-install game😔😔 plsss someone help me
@@Darielle thank u so so much but it didn't work :( i think the issue is game files?? that thing happened after i downloaded lovestruck. (btw i use cracked vers of sims cause I'm broke) and i still cant fix it😭
This has me stressed out. I was planning an outfit for my sim for a photoshoot. I leave cas and the game shuts down. As well as going to manage worlds, triggers the long loading screen even in cas
Yes, I did rename it, then opened the game, enabled the 2 options related to mods & cc (in Game options > other), applied changes, closed the game Opened the game once again to check if those 2 options in Game Options > Other stayed ticked/enabled, closed the game once again and the new folder appeared
My sims lets me into the game and to my save file but is stuck on pause. It also won't let me access save or manage worlds. I have tried everything from verifying steam files, reinstalling the game and even removing mods completely and the issue is still not solved. I even tried a new save file and the sims still won't unpause. I'm so sad because I invested so much time into my sims family and now I can't play anymore :(
Hiya, for me the best fix ever for any kind of issue/glitch in the sims 4 is resetting the Ea folder. That means that we’re going to keep the current Electronic Arts folder as a backup and then the game is going to generate a brand new one for us, one that is fresh and good to go. There will be created all of our saves from now on
1. Go into Documents 2. Right click the Electronic Arts Folder 3. Rename it into Electronic Arts Old (Keep it there, don’t remove it) 4. Open your game (now it should open since we reset our EA folder) 5. Time to put our files back into the game so close the game completely (you should notice a new EA folder in your Docs, that’s where we are gonna put our files) 6. Go into the EA old 7. the Sims 4 > Saves folder > select all files > copy 8. Go into the new EA folder > TS4 > Saves folder > paste all of your files there 9. The same thing applies to our Tray, Screenshots and cc! So 10. Go into the EA old > TS4 > Tray folder > select all files > copy 11. Go into the new EA > The Sims 4 > Tray folder > paste all files Do the same with your Mods & Screenshots! If you do not have those, then skip this step PS. make sure we don’t copy any mods (aka files that end with ts4script or any kind of functional cc - you can tell by their names, things like restaurant mods, life mods, school mods, toddler mods etc) Clothes, makeup, accessories, build cc can be copied! Once we’re done copying all those files into the new EA folder, we can open the game & it should work!
I'm able to launch the game and get past the loading screen to where you can click the "PLAY" button, but once I hit play, it just goes into an endless loop of the loading screen. However it doesn't do this when I remove my mods folder. I'm assuming that means there is a broken mod within my mod folder thats preventing me to play? Or is this something other people are experiencing since the update? I don't have the MCC, but I updated the ui cheats so that isn't a problem. When you say WW, do you just mean any of the WW animation mods?
@@raemurrae Hey, have you found out the broken mod? I’m having trouble with mines I’ve updated the 5 I have and it still isn’t working, could it be custom content?
@@Vaeh1208 i did. mine was qmbibi mods, also any trait mods. i also happened to have a corrupted save file for an outdated wicked whims so i had to move my entire sims 4 folder with the tray files, mods, etc to desktop and try again and slowly add mods back and make sure to only add updated ones

@@Darielle hi! I never had any mods or cc installed, and I already tried the thing with renaming the EA folder & generating a new one, but sadly that didn't work either :( And I also had already tried what you wrote in the last comment (I saw it in a forum). Thank you though so much for trying to help me!!!!
It was okay and then I downloaded tool and better buy(the most recent version I could find which the game said wasn’t the most updated) and when I needed to go to manage worlds it stood loading for so long that I had to force turn of my laptop. It wouldn’t even close. I took it out and it was fine… but I really need those mods but I can’t for the life of me find the newest update after lovestruck update 😭
Same problem I had, I went into options/graphics and checked the box for DirectX 9 to fix it. I believe DirectX 11 is the problem on some PCs & laptops.
Hiyaaa, if you have the more columns/more traits or even a cas background in the mods folder, those files need to be deleted from there, hope I made sense
@@Morang9 for me I had to start a new save. Some mods aren't working so I had to start a completely new save in my game. Just make sure you save your household before you start a save
today I deleted all mods. I tried the game, went to the mirror to change sim & loading screen STILL TAKES FOREVER after dressing sim up :( sucks cos I reinstalled my game and repaired and it still don't work ..
I think the update caused this
Could be due to that, but also make sure you don’t have any outdated script mods! I always write down all of my ts4script mods on a notes app & then delete all files that end with ts4script from the mods folder
That and/or resetting the Mods folder does wonders 🙏

th-cam.com/video/uPaBcELklZg/w-d-xo.html
Everything is loading fine except for CAS which is annoying Cz that’s where all the new updates are. Can’t wait for tmrws update to be over.
I agree. The wait times are fine for me too except CAS . Glad to know it’s not my cc and mods screwing me over.
Do you use mods that end with ts4script or the more columns mod?
CAS wont load for me
I have the same problem 😭
Same here 😭
I repaired the game 3 times, deleted all my mods folder, cleared the cache, nothings working…might as well delete the whole game.
Here’s what will help you
1. Go into Documents
2. Right click the Electronic Arts Folder
3. Rename it into Electronic Arts Old
(Keep it there, don’t remove it)
4. Open your game (now it should open since we reset our EA folder)
5. Time to put our files back into the game so close the game completely (you should notice a new EA folder in your Docs, that’s where we are gonna put our files)
6. Go into the EA old
7. the Sims 4 > Saves folder > select all files > copy
8. Go into the new EA folder > TS4 > Saves folder > paste all of your files there
9. The same thing applies to our Tray, Screenshots and cc!
So
10. Go into the EA old > TS4 > Tray folder > select all files > copy
11. Go into the new EA > The Sims 4 > Tray folder > paste all files
Do the same with your Mods & Screenshots! If you do not have those, then skip this step
PS. make sure we don’t copy any mods (aka files that end with ts4script or any kind of functional cc - you can tell by their names, things like restaurant mods, life mods, school mods, toddler mods etc)
Clothes, makeup, accessories, build cc can be copied!
Once we’re done copying all those files into the new EA folder, we can open the game & it should work!

Same here...i can't even close it with task manager, i have to restart the pc
Dear thank you for the video. i have the same problem, but when i delete the mods its works. but when i returend the back its stuck. what can I do? I never had problem with the mods. I dont have cc or ww or cas. can you help me please? thank you !!
cas doesn't work at all for me whether its the fulleditmode cheat or the command center it wont load. i don't have any mods that are for cas or anything and its not my mods that's causing the problem it is the update that has completely messed the game. before cas broke the preferences menu was missing there was nothing there then suddenly this update happens and now cas is broke and ea aren't moving their asses to get it fixed.
sorry for the long comment
Please try to reset either the Mods folder/Ea folder
I don’t have any mods, only expension pacs and also have the same problem. I have a MacBook which makes things difficult because i dont have the same files in the Electronic Arts folder. I reinstall both EA app and The Sims 4 and nothing worked. Is there anything left to do? I’m realny losing my mind while making another family which is not gonna survive 😭
Hi ur video was helpful but I got rid of my mods and it’s not loading still so idk what I should do got any advice?
it doesn't work.
HELP ME PLEASE
I tried EVERY WAY but it's same???? All I see is loading screen😭😭 I dont wanna delete the game.... it's hard for me to re-install game😔😔 plsss someone help me
Please try resetting the Mods folder, that’s what I do after every single update and it does wonders
I’m going to write down the steps here
It works if you have mods in the game/you previously had broken mods & deleted them but the game is still not working properly
@@Darielle thank u so so much but it didn't work :( i think the issue is game files?? that thing happened after i downloaded lovestruck. (btw i use cracked vers of sims cause I'm broke) and i still cant fix it😭
@@toletourheartsignitesame 😔
This has me stressed out. I was planning an outfit for my sim for a photoshoot. I leave cas and the game shuts down. As well as going to manage worlds, triggers the long loading screen even in cas
I’ve restarted this video a million times n I’m still confused on what u did to the folder. Did u only rename it? Or did u copy it?
Yes, I did rename it, then opened the game, enabled the 2 options related to mods & cc (in Game options > other), applied changes, closed the game
Opened the game once again to check if those 2 options in Game Options > Other stayed ticked/enabled, closed the game once again and the new folder appeared
The new folder will only appear if those mods settings stay enabled during the process
My sims lets me into the game and to my save file but is stuck on pause. It also won't let me access save or manage worlds. I have tried everything from verifying steam files, reinstalling the game and even removing mods completely and the issue is still not solved. I even tried a new save file and the sims still won't unpause. I'm so sad because I invested so much time into my sims family and now I can't play anymore :(
Hiya, for me the best fix ever for any kind of issue/glitch in the sims 4 is resetting the Ea folder. That means that we’re going to keep the current Electronic Arts folder as a backup and then the game is going to generate a brand new one for us, one that is fresh and good to go. There will be created all of our saves from now on
I’ll write the steps down below, let me know how it all goes, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you 🙏✨
1. Go into Documents
2. Right click the Electronic Arts Folder
3. Rename it into Electronic Arts Old
(Keep it there, don’t remove it)
4. Open your game (now it should open since we reset our EA folder)
5. Time to put our files back into the game so close the game completely (you should notice a new EA folder in your Docs, that’s where we are gonna put our files)
6. Go into the EA old
7. the Sims 4 > Saves folder > select all files > copy
8. Go into the new EA folder > TS4 > Saves folder > paste all of your files there
9. The same thing applies to our Tray, Screenshots and cc!
So
10. Go into the EA old > TS4 > Tray folder > select all files > copy
11. Go into the new EA > The Sims 4 > Tray folder > paste all files
Do the same with your Mods & Screenshots! If you do not have those, then skip this step
PS. make sure we don’t copy any mods (aka files that end with ts4script or any kind of functional cc - you can tell by their names, things like restaurant mods, life mods, school mods, toddler mods etc)
Clothes, makeup, accessories, build cc can be copied!
Once we’re done copying all those files into the new EA folder, we can open the game & it should work!
@@Darielle thank you so much for writing the steps down but unfortunately I have tried this method already and it didn’t work for me
Does it work again?
I tried, but i cannot rename it bcs the app is still running. Howw😭😭😭
Can cc cause cas to not loading or is it just mods ?
Cc can cause these issues too, especially the more traits one or a cas background
@@Dariellethanks for the video it really helped me fix my game
I did everything you did and its still stuck on the white loading screen when i click new game
Will post an update tonight for that!
i fixed my cas but i was playing earlier and im trying to get on again and im stuck on the loading screen when i load my game
Do you have the more traits mod/more columns or a cas background file inside your mods folder?
Those ones need to be deleted
@@Darielle i removed the more traits and columns, but havent removed cas background, ill try that
I'm able to launch the game and get past the loading screen to where you can click the "PLAY" button, but once I hit play, it just goes into an endless loop of the loading screen. However it doesn't do this when I remove my mods folder. I'm assuming that means there is a broken mod within my mod folder thats preventing me to play? Or is this something other people are experiencing since the update? I don't have the MCC, but I updated the ui cheats so that isn't a problem. When you say WW, do you just mean any of the WW animation mods?
same, it’s a broken mod
@@raemurrae Hey, have you found out the broken mod? I’m having trouble with mines I’ve updated the 5 I have and it still isn’t working, could it be custom content?
@@Vaeh1208 i did. mine was qmbibi mods, also any trait mods. i also happened to have a corrupted save file for an outdated wicked whims so i had to move my entire sims 4 folder with the tray files, mods, etc to desktop and try again and slowly add mods back and make sure to only add updated ones
@@raemurrae qmbibi? the food mods and infant care right?
@@tayrnation yeah that’s what i deleted
so am i supposed to play without MCCC now?
No, we’re just deleting it for now & installing the update (available on the mccc website)
THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU SAVE MY LİFE 😭😭😭
🙏🙏🙏
thanks in a million my loading screen problem is now fixed after two months of hell 🙏🙏😍😍
It doesnt help. I cannot rename the mods file bcs the app is still running. And I cannot close the app bcs the loading screen is stuck. Help me plss😭😭😭
force quit the app , if you have a mac just go to the home page & click the apple icon , then force quit & select the sims 4
Been playing the game all day with tons of mods and just a few minutes ago game crashed and now I’m stuck on loading, haven’t tried running no mods but I literally was just playing with no issues
Try to reset 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 th-cam.com/video/ejP49zTg7FM/w-d-xo.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
@@Darielledid all that and now icons for emotions are missing and game still gets stuck on loading screen when sim travels lol
i've tried this, with and without cc and it still keeps loading infinitely. i can't delete the mods as all of my builds/sims have mods in them and i don't want to lose that😭
Please try to delete at least the ones that end with ts4script, as well as more columns, ui cheats, Ww & more traits
Those are usually the ones that pose an issue in the game 🙏
@@Darielle i haven't tried the column cheats yet and more traits yet, so maybe its that
Keeping my fingers crossed 🙏
I uninstalled with no cc no mods deleted the folder after uninstalling then reinstalled still not working
Mine is still not working, can you do a tutorial for Mac books?
i need help !!! i removed all of my mods and when i press to continue my game it doesn’t stop loading . help please ☹️☹️
tried everyting and still not working- new update is so BAD
well, only CAS isnt loading really but UGHH

I have no mods at all and since the update I also have this issue :(
If you did have mods up until now & deleted then, resetting the mods folder will do, since there might be some broken remnants there
If not, we can try to reset the ea folder, but I’ll write down below the steps for the mods folder first
1. Turn on cc & mods (if you cannot do this, do steps 1&2 after step 3, exit the game, reopen it, close it once again in order for the new mods folder to show up)

@@Darielle hi! I never had any mods or cc installed, and I already tried the thing with renaming the EA folder & generating a new one, but sadly that didn't work either :( And I also had already tried what you wrote in the last comment (I saw it in a forum). Thank you though so much for trying to help me!!!!
I was trying to to what u were doing then i got confused and i stopped i restarted my game now i lost my sims.
Did you move your saves/copied your saves to the new folder?
It was okay and then I downloaded tool and better buy(the most recent version I could find which the game said wasn’t the most updated) and when I needed to go to manage worlds it stood loading for so long that I had to force turn of my laptop. It wouldn’t even close. I took it out and it was fine… but I really need those mods but I can’t for the life of me find the newest update after lovestruck update 😭
Same problem I had, I went into options/graphics and checked the box for DirectX 9 to fix it. I believe DirectX 11 is the problem on some PCs & laptops.
I put all of them into the new mods folder and deleted the old one , I realized I had 2,757 mods installed , no wonder my games laggy
Tried and It doesn't help
im able to open my game but for some reason it wont go to my actual game it opened yesterday and i played but it wont go to my game today
I don't have mods and I still have a loading issue. Was hoping this video would acknowledge that, instead.
I’ve done everything in the video, I even watched two videos about it and it still won’t work 😭.
alguém me ajuda? A minha tela de carregamento trava causando loop infinito quando entro no cas😢
Hiyaaa, if you have the more columns/more traits or even a cas background in the mods folder, those files need to be deleted from there, hope I made sense
You can find those by typing their names inside the mods folder (in the search bar)
Is ww means wicked whims
My issue is the characters who I don’t use, like townies, load with ease. My households tho w my mods all can’t load tho lol
Even without mods, my saves just won’t load. My last resort is deleting the Sims file completely and starting fresh.
I have this problem on ps 4 and I have no idea how to solve it ☹️
Omg thank you sm
You’re welcome 🙏🙏
Delete my script mods and I have a flat, no good game. 😂
Sadly I gave up and went back to playing it on console. Ain’t the same but I guess it’s better than nothing
It's definitely related to the new update 😢
Exactly 🥹
This and could be also linked to certain cas mods, like cas backgrounds or more columns
i just delete columns and my cas starts loading!!!
That’s amazing!! We need to update them now 🙏 sending lots of good thoughts your way!
Thanks it was a great help
This didn’t work for me at all 😭😭😭
How do you do this on ps4 ?
I’m stuck on the Christmas loading screen!!!! And I have no mods it’s a new account😀
bruh this stupid update, i aged up my sims before the update and forgot to quickly make them just in case, now im stuck with ugly teen sims 🤦♀️
play without mods..still taking forever to load..
None of these works for me sadly
my game is just stuck on loading screen!! i've tried everything :(
If you can get to the main menu, try going into option/graphics and checking the box for DirectX 9. Worked for me.
@@OmegaDeezwhere is that option I don’t see it
@@OmegaDeez it wont let me go into the main menu ,its completely stuck on the sims loading
Delete all your mods and reinstall thats what worked for me
cap
you delete all the mods and than copy them again to the folder?
@@Morang9 thats not true
@@xprettyteteanimations what is not true? i dont know what to do
@@Morang9 for me I had to start a new save. Some mods aren't working so I had to start a completely new save in my game. Just make sure you save your household before you start a save
today I deleted all mods. I tried the game, went to the mirror to change sim & loading screen STILL TAKES FOREVER after dressing sim up :( sucks cos I reinstalled my game and repaired and it still don't work ..
f
