Layering update question

Have any CC creators updated any of their clothes for the new layering update? Like instead of having their layered shirt in the ring or bracelets they have them in the layering category?

Game becomes unplayable when I enable script mod

Mind you, I don’t have ANY mods in my game. I completely deleted my previous sims 4 game file because my game was broken, come to find out it’s because every time I have script mods allowed, my game completely crashes and when I load into a save everything freezes.

How can that be? It’s not like there is any leftover file when I completely got rid of everything! Is any one else having that problem?

Wicked whims exception error

Can some1 plsss help me fix this error I tried everything redownload it, deleting conflicting mods and it still wouldn't let me play The Sims Also I have better exceptions and it doesn't say anything is wrong

any way to fix this neck thing on skinny male sims??

If this is not the right sub to ask this question, can someone please direct me to the correct sub where it is?

Anyways, whenever I scale down my male sims body weight and muscle mass, there is an indent made on the neck. Does anyone know if this is due to a slider, if so which slider. I do not have a neck slider. This happens even if I don't use a body preset.

This is just an issue that kinda bothers me, you can't even really see it from far away. But sometimes it does mess with necklaces. So, if there is a way to fix this, please let me know.

Teleport any sim not showing up in game, no conflicts on better exceptions

It's basically what the title says. This has been killing me. The game acknowledges that I have the mod installed because when I go into buy mode and search up the sim teleporter it shows up as an option that I can by but when I click search it does not appear in my game whatsoever. I've done everything I can think of. I want to know if anybody has ever had this issue. I've used multiple conflict detectors i've used better exceptions n MC command center. Nothing is helping. I also see that the pose player slash teleporter has not been updated since 2024. Has anyone had this happen and what did you do to fix it?

Curseforge vs direct from creators

As someone with very basic tech skills/knowledge, the idea of having to download, organize, and update all of my mods and cc on my own sounds intimidating and miserable also as someone with a short attention span lol so until now I’ve used Curseforge just for simplicity. I don’t mind Curseforge, but I find that a lot of CC is broken and I know there’s a ton of stuff out there that I can’t find on Curseforge, so I’m wondering what are some other pros and cons of using Curseforge vs downloading directly from creators and what advice you’d have for a noob who’s thinking about deleting everything from Curseforge and trying to download everything from creators sites instead? The idea sounds so time consuming to me which is my biggest turn off

Which mod is doing this?

I have a ton of mods and I just redownloaded TS4 last night after a couple months of being done with it. I enabled all my mods back and when I loaded into the game, I see that. I’m going through my mods folder to see which mod is doing it, so it’s going take me a while, I just figured bringing it here might help me get an answer faster.

WW "scope the surroundings" gone?

Hey, just a general question here.

I noticed lately I haven't been seeing the "scope the surroundings" option anymore within WW. I am ar a bar with many sims so that should not be an issue.

Not posting this as a troubleshooting post as I am not sure it is an issue or they have removed it?

I do use WW attraction instead of lovestruck.

Anyone have an idea if they removed this?

help me please idk what to do next with my corrupted files

I am literally about to cry because I have spent SO much time downloading each of my custom content pieces one by one, and I really don’t want to delete my mods folder.

Here is what is happening: I downloaded a top from The Sims Resource, and when I tried to launch my game on my Mac, it hit me with this exact error:

Unable to start: Cannot start because the below file appears to be corrupted... /Users/______/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods/TSR MODS/Clothes/JCB HELLEN GYM BAG.package

The thing is... I ALREADY DELETED THAT FILE.

I have tried everything and I am stuck in an endless loop. Here is exactly what I have done so far, and the error STILL won't go away:

  1. Moved my Mods folder to the desktop and deleted the exact JCB HELLEN GYM BAG.package file.
  2. Emptied my Mac Trash bin completely (even held the Option key to force-empty it).
  3. Deleted my localthumbcache.package and completely wiped out the cache/cachestr folders.
  4. Checked iCloud Drive and searched my entire Mac storage using Finder—there are literally NO files left on my computer named "JCB HELLEN".
  5. Did a Folder Reset by renaming my Sims 4 folder to "The Sims 4 Old" to force the EA app to make a new one. The game opened fine completely blank, but the second I put my safe mods back, the error returned.
  6. Force quit the EA App and the EA Background Service via Mac Activity Monitor.
  7. Tried the fake file overwrite trick (creating a blank text file with the same name, putting it in the folder, and deleting it to force a refresh).
  8. I lost count of how many times I have run the "Repair" tool in the EA App. I have re-done the repair and cache clearing over and over again, but the app is completely stubborn.

The EA App is stubbornly pulling this file path from its background memory or some invisible cache and refusing to let it go.

Has anyone on Mac dealt with the EA app getting completely frozen on a deleted file path like this? Please help me, I have so many hours put into finding my CC and I don't want to lose everything. Thank you so much in advance 😭

Problem with WickedWhims Mod

Hey guys, so I just got Sims 4 on my Macbook Air M3, and I installed the Wicked Whims mod as im just curious about the mod and the base game can get boring

I have been having some troubles setting the Mod up... I followed many Tutorials (the official one, ones on TikTok...) but I just cant figure it out at all. My main problem is, that I dont have a Mods folder in my Sims 4 Folder. Ive read that i can just create an own Folder to put my mods into that one (but that also doesnt work🙃). I have also turned on the in-game Sims 4 settings and restarted my game many times afterwards

Posting this is my last resort as ive never posted anything on Reddit, so I really hope someone can help me figure out this problem, thanks 🙏

I made a 'Fully Serviced Residence' Lot Trait

I made a Lot trait to staff your Home.

With this Lot trait, your residence gains a full team of household staff, including a Nanny, a Maid, a Repair Technician, and a Gardener.

I made a Mod update to my post I made a 'Fully Serviced Residence' Lot Trait : r/TheSims4Mods.

Now there is an option to add it as a lot challenge, and there is also the paid version!

I also separated the different services as lot challenges; now you can customise the services you want. All services are available in free and paid versions. Including the new Ranch-Hand Service.

I fixed the Nanny's timing to be more consistent and also tested this Mod with LittleMssam's mods 'Better Nanny' and 'Live-in Services,' and it is compatible.

More details and the download link are available for free here: 'Fully Serviced Residence' Lot Trait Update | Patreon

You can also download it on my Curseforge here:

* Combined Lot trait: 'Fully Serviced Residence' Lot Trait - The Sims 4 Mods - CurseForge

* Seperate Lot traits: 'Serviced Residence' Lot Tr... - Mods - The Sims 4 - CurseForge

Can’t close popup/stuck on loading screen

There’s a broken popup on the loading screen that I can’t click out of. When I click with my mouse it doesn’t work, but after I press the esc key it disappears, however the x remains and it doesn’t work. Basically, I’m stuck on the home screen. What could be causing this? Yes I use mods/cc but everything is updated and I don’t have any homepage or ui mods. What should I do?

Lost all my CC — Need help retrieving some golden oldies

Hi there, hope this post is OK.
I have lost all my CC (which was a collection of literal YEARS) due to my partner doing an update on his PC's hardware and he didn't know about the mods folder. RIP.
So, I have embarked on the fabulous journey of downloading CC again. Which, I do have to say, has improved SO much ever since 2016 :-))))) But there's some things I really miss which I can not seem to find and I will try my utmost best to describe it as good as I can. If anyone could help me, gratitude for eternity.

Posters/prints
I used to have these small prints hung up by tape or pins. Not framed. There weren't many, but the ones i had did have loads of swatches. I have been searching like crazy for it but can't find anything. What I'm finding are big posters — but I'm on mac and azerty so enlarge/make smaller doesnt work. UGH.
Anyway, I remember for one of those prints the first swatch was a drawing of a woman, girl, i think. Very colourful, orange, blue.
Any good proper tiny prints would do. My sims (jk i know its just me) really need that in their life.

Lights
There was this collection of lights, I think it was mostly candle holders thingy. They were golden edged, much like those fancy jewelry boxes that are the hype IRL too. I think it was a romance collection or sth..

Clutter
OK, don't judge on this one please. There used to be real good CC for an ashtray and ciggies. I have already found an alternative, but it's just not the same. The one I'm used to had real packs of Marlboro I think. Just going for the reality look here.

Well. That's it really. Do have to say, I'm embracing all the new CC which I'm finding and it's like a fresh start. But some old relics... i'd just really love to be able to use again in my builds.

EDIT
I have found the ciggies: https://www.tumblr.com/simsplex/116515484901/smoking-clutter-its-time-to-give-your-sims-a hehe

Some tiny prints which are cutesy!
