Feedback / Updates Mods for the sims 4

Content

This post covers the conflicts with third-party mods and identifies which specific mods they clash with.

Before you make a report, do this first.

Delete the game cache.

cachestr.

onlinethumbnailcache.

And delete following files:

GameVersion.txt

localthumbcache.package

This is done so that the game reloads the mods correctly.

Delete my mods without overwriting them, as their file names and locations are constantly changing.

You can delete mod files, but moving them from their original locations —especially the modular ones— can cause errors in the game..

Make sure the mod is installed in the right folder.

Remove any unnecessary patches for mods, as they may cause conflicts.

Don't forget, you can submit your reports via Patreon.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before we go down, a quick tip: almost all problems with mods that don't have compatibility patches or alternative textures can be solved by changing the mod loading order. Simply add a symbol like "!" to the beginning of the file or folder name, as shown in the example.

If you're interested in learning how face order works in The Sims 4, you can read the following post, where I elaborate on the topic.

How does the loading order work?

More CAS Traits Mod + Add Traits Menu + Long-Lived Traits

The issue seems to be caused by incompatibility with the Weerbesu mod - UI Cheats Extension. The problem occurs because the patch for this mod uses original code from UI Cheats Extension. The only fix is to remove all files related to the UI Cheats Extension mod, including the patch.

[It is not possible to patch the mod 100%]

Create A World (CAW)

There’s an error in the operation of the mod.

Since the mod is behind a paywall, I can’t confirm or deny its effects, nor say if it’s possible to fix the bug.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sims 4 in Dark Mode - Chalk'd UI or similar

Obviously, my mods don’t work with this mod.

Due to the way both mods are structured, it’s possible to combine their files, but you’ll need to experiment on your own to figure it out. I’m not responsible for the outcome.

Plumbob recolors by pinkishwrld or similar

The mod does not work.

After the October 22, 2024 update, my loading screens work with Plumbob's overrides; you just need to adjust the mod's loading order for it to function properly.

If you don't know what mod loading order is or how it works, please read this post.

Make sure the mods were updated or released after The Sims 4 update on October 22, 2024, or you’ll end up with incompatibility errors.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Better Simology Panel

The mod isn’t working.

The conflict happens because this mod changes the gfx file that controls the text color. The only way to make it work with other conflicting color interfaces is to give the "Better Simology Panel" loading priority.

If the issue continues, take a look at the list of installed mods. If this mod isn’t at the top, then there’s likely another problem with the game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Better World Select

The mod does not work.

The conflict happens because this mod changes the gfx file that controls text color. The only way to make it work with other conflicting color interfaces is to give “Better World Select” loading priority.

The only ongoing issue is that the text color will reset to the default, but if that doesn’t bother you, you can proceed without any trouble. Alternatively, you could choose the version without the world names.

If the problem persists, check the list of installed mods. If this mod doesn't appear at the top of the list, then something else is wrong with the game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Custom wrench icon or something similar

Error in the operation in the mod.

The error happens because this mod changes some of the low-level textures, and making a patch for it isn’t possible, as I’d basically have to re-upload the whole mod myself.
