@rosemow It didn't work. the loading screen stopped at the sims 4. It also said application not working
Hello @pinkblusher. Were you able to start your game when you didn't have the mods folder with your mods/cc in it? If you were, then there are mods/cc that may be broken/corrupt and are causing issues.
Remove all the mods/cc from your mods folder. Then put your mods/CC back into the 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 in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
@pinkblusher how many mods do you have? Mods, CC, anything "extra" like that.
How is testing going?
If it isn't a million files, if you could tell us what they are, maybe we'd already know if it was broken or updated (or not) recently.
If it IS a lot, post a screenshot to TinyPic (or somewhere like that) and put a BROKEN (add a space somewhere) link in a post here. One of us can fix it to post the picture, and we'd have a better idea of how to help you.
hi, I deleted all my mods, and now my resource file is gone too. I can't find it anywhere. does anyone know how I can get it back, or maybe download it somehow? I really need help, 'cause without the mods, it's kinda boring..

Hello @lileyrose .
When you launch the game, a new resource.cfg file should be created in the mods folder,
If it isn't, go to this link thread, and half way down the page there will a picture of a drive with an arrow on it . Press that and download the file.That is a resource.cfg file that you can download and place in your mods folder if there isn't one already there. You will need to take the file out of the zipped file and place it into the mods folder. http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/08/mods-and-downloads/
Hi, Recently i moved my sims 4 mods folder out of my game for a while, just so i can have a break from it all. Yesterday i tried putting it back in but the cc wont show up. I have cc and script mods checked and laptop mode off. Even in the game settings it says no mods are in game. I have tried having the game regenerate the mods folder but it doesn't. I'm a long time cc user (i previously had over 14,000 items of cc on a different computer) and have never had something like this happen. I have also tried repairing my game. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated and apologies for the crazy circumstances.

Edit: you may need to look at the last page in Game Options and re-enable your mods. There are 2 boxes that both need to be checked "on" for mods to show up in the game now.
These threads may help, read the first post in each (at least):
If you're trying to put things in now you had removed before the June patches, it's very likely they won't work. Check where you downloaded from for updates on anything you'd like to use now.
@Smilelikelo Instead of putting it back, leave it deleted and let the game generate a new one when you start it.

Hello
Your mods/cc may be conflicting with the game after the latest patches.
Try putting back your old mods folder into the sims 4 folder. Then move all your mods/cc from the mods folder.
Then start putting them back in batches, testing after each batch to see if they appear.
Thank all of you so much. I will get back if anything works!
I hope that your cc/mods issue will be fixed for you and that your cc starts to appear.
Check to make sure that you only have one resource.cfg file in your mods folder.
Sadly, the game has won't generate a new mods folder and my mods and cc are already enabled. I tried rosemow's method but that didn't work either. I even tried downloading new custom content but it didn't show up either. If theres anything else i would greatly appreciate it. If not, thank you for helping.

Hello
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. 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. Exit the game and then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" and "custom music "folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders.
Check to see if that makes a new mods folder. If it does, don't put back the old mods folder. Instead, place your cc/mods into the newly generated mods folder.
If it doesn't make a new mods folder, put back the old mods folder.
Then test to see if that helps.
If the issue remains after doing that, go to this link blog page , and half way down the page there will a picture of a drive with an arrow on it . Press that and download the file.That is a new resource.cfg file that you can download and place in your mods folder. Move the resource.cfg file that is already in your mods folder to your desktop, then place the new file into the mods folder to replace it.

Have you tried refreshing your whole /Sims4 folder? Move it to the desktop, then start your game. That generates a NEW folder entirely. Its your option whether to redo your settings from scratch, or to copy files back over from the previous Sims4 folder into the new one to keep your settings.
@rosemow can tell you for sure which files NEED copied over... I usually just do a fresh thing and reset my options from hand. Not the BEST way to do it if you want to keep much of your "before refresh" stuff... I just don't care that much about it.
But (for example) I lose my Tray stuff if I don't put it back... meh thing here, I don't download much. If that matters to you, you can replace the new tray with your old one.
Saves, you can move old saves back over too, to continue playing where you left off. I DO keep those. Although I've deleted the game's autosave before, sometimes that causes problems. Generally (maybe always), the Autosave will be first on the list using Date sort, and your actual game will be second.
Your new /Mods folder SHOULD install with a new Resource.cfg file. About a third of the way down this page you can download a copy of a new one if you need it, though:
My CC isn't working I've tried downloading a resource.cfg file but it still hasn't worked. Do you have any ideas to what I could do?
Hello @Evee123.
Go to game options and check that the " enable custom content and mods" button is ticked, which is found in :
Options | Other | Enable Custom Content and Mods. If it isn't ticked, do that.Also check that the script mods allowed button is ticked as well. Exit the game. Then go back into the game again and see if the cc is there.

The latest game patch has broken cc lighting.
Sims 4 studio has a batch fix to help the cc lights issue. You need to register with the site to access the download page and download/install the program but it is free. If you have cc lights, try downloading the program and doing the batch fix.
