Alright, I think this might be related to some experimental code I accidentally left in that DLL. Would you mind trying this DLL out? Thank you so much.

yes! this worked. my game did not crash, started up just like normal. now im trying to get the body tweaks right, i might have a body mod interfering, i will report back, you did say not many body mods work, although @wewfap04 stated EVE works i will try that.

How did you get on with it.

 

Do you get the tailbone bug as well?

Butt physics don't work, Breast are only noticeable when the sim turns

Alright. Thanks for the information. I'll see what I can do.

Here's the exact error message I get. Managed to get it, windows mode didn't fix it.

 

Looks like a security/permissions related issue?

It looks like you're using an earlier version of the experimental RTBP DLL. Try the new one and see if that works for you.

Oh, ok. I think I might know what's going on. I guess with Origin being replaced with the EA App, it would make sense that the installation directories would change. I'll do some research and release a new installer very soon.

Only the default installation directory changes, it's easy to change it to where Origin installed games, from within the EA App settings, no one here should need to reinstall their games.

That is the one I was using.

 

3,701KB in size. The one you uploaded on this page with the experimental code included or something.

Just in case I have it wrong, where should the commander file be placed?

The error message you shared with me shows that the member function "Mesh::getClosestVertexToRay" is being called. I don't use that function anymore. If you could post your log file, I could tell you whether you're running the latest version or not.

The Commander can be placed anywhere. Just make sure to extract all the files, make sure they're all in the same folder, then run the ".exe" file.

I reinstalled it so will regenerate another logfile

 

Just for clarity here's what i'm doing.

 

1. Getting the RTBP file from the download page (dated 2022/08/10)

2. Using installer to install this (I uncheck the box as I don't use an integrated GPU)

3. I then use that file you just linked with the newest .dll file (replacing the dll file in the main game folder, NOT the mod folder)

Boom, I also use commander to edit shit. By the way, what body selector do you use? There's no way you use the default Wicked Wims one because that gives the ass boxing effect that most report?

All good! New installer worked perfectly to un and reinstall for the ea app and, honestly, this mod's been running way more smooth in general since the latest game updates. :,) For me at least. When the game auto updated and I warily turned it on to see which mods would crash and burn, physics were on point for the lone sim dancing in her room to the blues.

 

Deleted and re-downloaded the commander files yesterday and it's behaving with the latest version.

What body mods do you use (Whicked Whims I mean)?

 

Do you get the weird tailbone visual discussed in this thread? 

 

 

Apparently it's to do with the type of "bottom" you use in WW bodyselector but I can't find one that doesn't have it sadly. Tried them all, EVE, Dumbaby, Hikori etc

i didnt get the tailbone bug, but, the breast physics arent working properly, in CAS, they are slanted sideways, and when my sim moves, the breast are like a static object they dont move while everything else does, im sure weve all seen that in other games too, but i also did crash alt tabbing, and im upset because i forgot to save lol

I haven't had that particular issue. I think my current default body for fem sims is the Eve v9? Sometimes switch the top for Heavy. Any mesh oddness I get is usually more to do with a mesh not playing nice with animations themselves. If it's just that animation or ones with similar poses, maybe it's an awkward angle for the jiggle's gravity to work with?

That's what i've come to accept too.

 

I just think it has to do with how the animations play with the physics, don't think it's avoidable sadly.

 

Thankfully, i've managed to get settings (also using Eve V9 bottom in WW) that minimalise it and i've tested it with a bunch of animations and it works fine. Unavoidable sadly but can be minimised to a tolerant point where the booty jiggle outweighs the odd awkward visual.

Are you sure you don't?

 

What lower body mesh do you use? It's seemingly impossible to avoid on a lot of animations (for example, Motherlode Twerk series has it pretty bad especially on the 2nd/3rd animations). Also, the CAS titty slanted sideways is unavoidable I think. In game it works fine, but in CAS it's like Gravity has them stuck in place too the side. Not really an issue.

 

Speaking of which, is there a way to save Commander settings by that I mean, not having to open up the commander every time I load up the game? @CPVC

 

Or does it do that anyway?

In the "commands" tab click "save settings" under Misc. after making the changes you want.

[Guest]

Just to confirm, does Wicked Whims default lower body work with this mod right now?

 

Because i'm pretty sure it's fucked hence why I use EVE V9

0.4 e3 - Had a crash when I was AFK and the Windows lock screen turns on. Crashes are a lot rarer with e3 than it was with the previous two experimental versions, but it seems to be repeatable with the lock screen crash. 0.4 stable is fine with the lock screen or alt-tabbing, unlike e3.

Also, E3 has a lot better compatibility with breasts clipping through clothing, similar to the far earlier 0.4 versions, but there are still some random clipping, or breasts that are lop-sided. If it helps, I can attach and archive of some of the affected clothing items.

Sorry, I should have mentioned, the installer only supports stable releases. The experimental releases are for advanced users only. They're meant for testing out new features so I can get feedback and try to fix any problems that may occur. To use an experimental release, you need to be able to install it manually. Use the installer to install the stable release, then manually install the experimental DLL. There's no guarantee that it will work, hence the term "experimental". Once it's been tested enough and I'm satisfied with it's behavior, it'll be the new stable release and packaged with all the requisite files and will work with the installer.

Thanks. I'll work on this. When in doubt, switch back to the stable release for stable game play.

Next question is where or is there one of your mods that'll work after the EA takeover?

EA takeover? I'm not sure what you're referring to. Maxis was acquired by EA in 1997. Do you mean the new launcher replacing Origin? The default installation directory for games should be "C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4\".

Basically EA app took over Origin at last update which totally wiped C drive settings including RTBP.   The new app even tries to download EVERY add on/package from Sims 4 that I bought in the past.  On two attempted reinstalls this happened and totally filled Drive C.  I have now managed to install a few Sims packages that didn't fill C.

 Game now works but noticed the dll. in not showing in BIN.  When I've tried RTBP install, game doesn't work as the extra dll. on C  won't allow your mod.

[SixThreeEight]

just had a crash, it happened when i switched my sims i had one at the hospital giving birth, and i was trying to switch, to my other sim on my lot and it crashed.
