How do I uninstall individual packs? Plz help..

iamoz96

I want to uninstall the recent expansion because community voting has messed up my game. Some reason sims are taking back other communities community voted behavior with them back home. Is there any possible way to get rid of one pack? If not, will uninstalling the entire game erase my saves and sims?

I have not tried it yet, but maybe you can disable the NAPs in the game options? Or do the sims still have the buffs?

If you want to uninstall, for console the solution is apparently to uninstall the game and then reinstall it without the dlc. I don't have the sims 4 on console so I am not sure exactly how you can do that, but I guess it is possible.

I’ve disabled the NAPs but it’s too late for me to do anything since everything is voted on. They still have the buffs and they won’t go away when they are gone from the neighborhood or when voting is shut off. I’m afraid they will pile up with buffs from traveling to other community lots.

You can check out this link. James provides a way to disable packs. https://jamesturner.yt/disablepacks

Also, if you are not opposed to mods you can download UI cheats mod to remove buffs.

Edit: sorry didn’t realize you were playing on console.

Which console are you on? For the Xbox, you can go into the game info and under manage game they show a list of everything installed. Maybe it can be done there. I haven't tried.

If you are on PlayStation uninstalling everything will not get rid of your saves. That can only be done by deleting your save data.

I think the only way to uninstall one piece of of Dlc is to uninstall the whole game and re install without the dlc you don’t want.

@Yamsisims Playing on the PS4. I had to remove EL from my game. N.A.P.s are currently bugged making sims go haywire causing irreversible damage to all sims. It’s a well known issue on EA answers.

I was tempted to uninstall everything because of the expansion pack. Everything is lagging. I think I should remove it just so I can actually play. I wish I didn't have to uninstall everything though.
