    Wouldn't hold my breath on that. As long as the mod works, he most likely isn't going to be interested in chasing down unimportant LE's. The mod works. It doesn't cause any issues. If you are worried you can back up your current save just in case. Make a copy of it and put it in a safe place and continue on.

    Whether it causes major issues is very much a case of 'your mileage may vary.' It broke my save months (and many game patches) ago. I decided to test it again on a new save and had different problems.

    Some people get no LEs, some only get LEs, and some have major problems.

    But I also wouldn't hold my breath on it getting fixed any time soon.

    Most likely a conflict with another mod, but it is tricky to use. Any problems with it can be resolved by deleting "selection_group.json" in the folder where the mod is located. This information is for anyone who wants to use the mod. If you don't want to use it, feel free to ignore my testing and information. I am only posting because I know myself that I appreciate it when others explain why a mod is not working or if it is safe, rather then just saying "It's broken" without any other information.

    I use this mod and have for a long time. I don't know of any issues with it. I do get occasional LEs but nothing has caused any harm and I don't know if they're from that mod. Do you still recommend deleting that file regardless, in order to prevent any future issues? And is it a file that will self-restore each time I start the game? It seems to be dated for the last time I played.

    As I stated earlier, the mod works fine, and I have no issues with it. I don't even have LEs. The usage file does update every time you use it, that is normal. If you have any issues (sometime selecting a sim that has no actual home can cause a slight problem), the easy fix is to close the game and delete the "selection_group.json" The modder himself explained this. Keep enjoying the mod. There are always going to be some people that will have mod conflicts, and there are also those that over react to LE's of any kind.

    @Mendota What are LE's?

    I don't use CC so if you see something in a screenshot of mine, it's from the game.

    @Mendota Cool, thanks!

    @GoddessByline LEs are Last Exception errors, the little orange ones that pop up in the upper right corner. They very often are non dangerous glitches that occur from minor mod malfunctions or conflicts.

    I was having a game-wrecking UI error and did a full 50/50 method to determine with certainty that it was caused by KawaiiStacie's The Explore Mod. *tested with no mods, tested with only this mod, and tested with all mods BUT this one, and produced consistent results.

    A lot of her old ones seem to be broken. Which is a shame cause they were fun. I only ever dare to use her slice of life one which isn’t fully updated.

    The Explore Mod was working for me until it caused a UI error with a Sim profile that caused all the profiles to break. I had to go backward in my saves to undo this error every time. Removing this mod stopped the error from happening. Of course, you may get lucky and not run into the problem, but if it happens you will know what caused it.

    ETA: The UI error occurred when I opened a certain Sim's profile from the relationship panel. This was most likely a Sim that had the "license to drive" trait added in their relationship panel. Just guessing, but that's the only way that this mod interacts with the UI relationship panels. So if you never open the profile, or you don't use the bus pass/driver's license feature, you may never see this error. But if you do, it will make the game unplayable until you back up and don't open that profile again, or remove the mod.

    I’m sorry about that…

    https://discord.gg/hVBQRBDAVM

    Édit: I’m testing right now in my game and my sims is at a movie premiere for 2 hours and nothing break. I have the latest version of the game and a tons of mods installed…
    He jus came back, meanwhile I opened some profiles and nothing else happened
    It might conflict with something in your case

    But I will keep an eye on it, thanks!

    In this case, I did already tell them about it on their discord and for now I just need to remove the mod. It's not a conflict, because it occurred with only that mod in the folder and nothing else. It needs to be updated and I am fine to wait until it is, I was just providing the information here not in need of problem solving. Thank you for your interest though!

    Not all potential problems will occur in every case. You can continue to get lucky, but it should still be reported as needing an update because some people can have big problems with it.

    I've got KawaiiStacie's Education System Bundle that seems to work OK. For the past couple of patches, BetterExceptions has shown a few tuning issues in its Patch Day Report, but I've not had any problems with the mod. I don't think it's that old, though.

    Liberated Vehicles from plasticbox (MTS) is broken. The game won't start with this file.

    Thanks @Naike. That one's already listed on p.1, but a good opportunity to repeat this: Assume that ALL pbox/plasticbox content is broken
