For now, we’ll talk about removing the larger game-play mods, like the University mod I mentioned earlier.Įventually, you’ll single out the broken mod, and you can delete it from your Mods folder. So, we’ll talk about removing CAS and Build/Buy items later. If CAS items are broken, your Sims may show up bald, naked, or slightly disfigured, but it won’t cause your game to crash.
Usually, custom content like CAS (Create a Sim) items (hair, clothes, etc.) won’t entirely break your game because they’re not game-play mods. The first method is tedious if you have a large amount of custom content, but it’s also incredibly reliable when you’re trying to single out broken mods in your game. What to Do When Mods Are Breaking Your Game It is up to the individual creators to fix their own mods. If the game works when the Mods folder is removed, then one or more of the mods and/or custom content have become outdated and will need to be removed or replaced. EA/Maxis isn’t responsible for broken mods/cc. This is really common for mods, as they can become outdated with most recent game patches.
My university Sims’ performance bar suddenly changed, and when I enrolled them for their next semester, I discovered that courses didn’t count, and I had to retake the semester over. That’s when I started to suspect that the mod was causing my game to behave incorrectly. At first, I started poking around to learn if Sims are able to have more than one degree, and it turns they can. After Electronic Arts released an update to the game, my Sims that were attending university for the second time graduated and lost their previous degree.
