Custom Music not playing

southaltan

I have a few songs that I have tired to add to my game, and they are blank in the music, and nothing plays, so the radio station shows music but nothing is playing.

OS X Yosemite (V. 10.10.5)
MacBook Pro (13-in, Mid 2010)
Processor- 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 6GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256MB

Hello.
Remove any mods/cc from your game and see if that helps.

Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

Also, make sure that they are MP3 files with a bit rate that is no larger than 320kbits/s

the patch might have fixed it! The music in the game options actually played!

Hello.
It is great that it was fixed in the patch!

Custom music tracks will no longer choose to play silently for no apparent reason when listening to them on the stereo.
