SOMEONE HELP!
I have this issue- Yes I have a lot of cc but i've used the mod conflict detector and removed all issues but sims still won't let me play actual households. I can open cas and make sims and save them fine but as soon as I put them on a lot and try to play it just loads and never actually loads. I've uninstalled and reinstalled sims. I ran it without mods and it works but playing the game doesn't work with mods in.
Hello @beta48
It sounds like you have a broken mod /mods. The mod conflict detector is unable to find all broken mods.
Try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item or batch in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
Thank you! I'll test that- I have almost 8000 things but I haven't had an issue for a long time, I'll test them in batches, thank you
Hello @beta48
Because you have a lot of mods/cc, you could use the 50/50 method. Put half of your mods/cc into the mods folder then start the game and see if the issue is still there. If the issue is not there, then you know that those items work okay with the game. Then you can test the other half of your cc/mods.
If the issue is still there with the first half, you will need to keep testing them to see what is causing the problem. Then you will need to test the second half of your cc/mods too.
I've been having the same problem, so i tried to work around it and clicked the play button, and just use a former household. The problem was that I was not able to move my household,build, manage etc. because it would say Game loading in progress even after a couple of hours. I don't know if these two problem are linked but if anyone can help me please do!?!

Hello @LizzieSimmer4884
If you have cc/mods in your game, move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and see if the issues are still there. If it has helped with the issues, put your mods/ CC back into the newly generated mods folder that is in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing after each one to see which is the causes of the problem.
If the issues remain, try evicting your sims household, then go to manage household and move the household to another home in your game. Test then to see if you can load your sims household there in the new home.
I'm having this issue now. Ive tried all of the above. Since removing broken mods, it's gone from loading and going back to the map, to now just loading forever and nothing happening at all. Updating,uninstalling,reinstalling, repairing, restarting, nothing is working. Please help :(

Is it all households that have this issue or just one?
If it is just one, try evicting the Sims household, move them to another home and see if you can load them in the new lot.
If it is all households,try resetting your sims 4 folder, starting a new save game file, and testing to see if it occurs there . To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated.
Start a new game and test to see if the issue is in that new save game.
Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or "options" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder
If you still have issues, could you please post your DxDiag info here.
To gather a DXDIAG on your computer, do this :
Press and hold the Windows key and the letter R on your keyboard
You will see a Run box in the lower-left corner of your screen
Type dxdiag in the text field
Click OK
Click the Save All Information button, found on the bottom of the DXDIAG report
After you have saved your dxdiag info on your computer, go to the pastebin site https://pastebin.com
and copy/paste the dxdiag info into the white box there. Press the button to create the new paste/pastebin text file.
Then post here in this thread the web address of your dxdiag info that is on the pastebin site. You will need to replace the http in the address with h.t.t.p as you are a new member and can’t post links.
Hello
Could you please post all the dxdiag information into the box on pastebin. The first part is the only part that was posted.
Also, is it all households that have this issue or just one?
and its all households, and now its affecting build mode where its just loading without doing anything.
Hello @jennabean
am so sorry but your computer doesn’t meet the recommended requirements to run the game and game packs
You have a weaker processor than is required. You also have an integrated processor video card. It is using the same computer ram along with the game , origin, windows and other programs that you have on your computer. These things are causing the issues.
I am so sorry
You also don’t have a very large hard drive, and it is almost filled up.
The laptop isn’t designed to run games.
If you have another computer it would be best to play on that if it is has higher computer specifications.
If you decide to purchase a new computer now or into the future and would like help and advice in getting a computer that can handle the game and packs, it would be good to post on a thread in the Sims 4 Tech section and simmers will assist you http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/categories/the-sims-4-technical-discussions
@rosemow that so odd! Ive had the game since either the year it came out or the year after and its worked fine till now
Sometimes laptops can be working okay, then with the addition of a patch, it causes extra pressure on the computer to run the game.
I am sorry
The game needs at least 50gb free space to run smoothly and your laptop just has 23.5 gb free space left
Drive: C:
Free Space: 23.5 GB
Total Space: 108.1 GB
You could try doing a few other things that may help. Play in laptop mode, and in windowed mode. Lower your graphics settings.
Close all other open windows on the desktop when playing the game and see if that helps.

If you delete everything in your tray folder, would that damage your game?

Try seeing if the mods that you use are on the list, then remove /update them,
If the issues remain, try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem

Try starting a fresh new save to test to see if the same issue is occurring there.
