The new Star wars pack problems

[baddd60]

Just recently updated the new Star Wars expansion pack.  Updated WW, Nisa, Command Center, every thing I can think of to update. I can load the game up to choosing a household to play.  Looks like it's loading then pops back to the world map.  I can create a new household in CAS, place it but unable to get to a household to play.  I have my game updated to everything.  I hope someone has a solution to this.  I can't even get a last exception file anymore, because I can't get a household to even load. I deleted my game and reinstalled it to no avail.  Even used Anadius updater to get the game to work.  Nothing is working.  Obviously it is probably a mod issue.  Any mods that might cause this issue?

yup probably a mod conflict .... when it gets to the point where u cant load the household you may need to remove mods 1 at a time until you find the mod causing the issue. in my experience its usually a mod that does alot of stuff. like a simple mod that adds a piece of clothing probably isnt causing it. so you can use some logic in trying to figure out which mod/mods are breaking the game .. its probably a mod that uses scripting .. to test that you can go to game options and disable all scripting mods and restart and see if that fixes it .. if it does then u can safely assume its a scripting mod which i doubt u have more then 10-20 of those so should be easy .. might take an hour or 2 of troubleshooting but good luck!

 

let us know if u found the mod thats breaking it for a heads up to others.

So like if you do base game updates, the day they are released. Expect not to be able to play your game for a couple days minimum, potentially a couple weeks depending what mods you favor. Modders need time to update their mods to work with the newest game version, they can't have them ready for the same time the update is released.

Did you also delete your localthumbcache.package in your TS4 folder as it may help.

 

Try loading just WW, Basemental Drugs, MCCC, & Nisa's WP and remove all other mods.

But Hairstyles, Makeup, & Clothing are usually OK to leave.

If you load an old game save then don't make a new save when testing out mods until they are verified working.

Everything was working fine up until this Star wars pack.  I uninstalled it, ran a registry cleaner then reinstalled game to everything but the new expansion.  Game acted the same way even though I updated  nothing.  So, now  I reinstalled the lasted expansion and are slowly updating all the script mods.  I have over 15000 mods., so this could take a while to pinpoint the problem.  Thanks for you guys help.

I had this issue with a previous update, and starting from a clean save solved it. Not ideal but at least the game work.

Thanks LittleDoxy.  After reinstalling the game and playing with a fresh documents folder.  I just started adding my script mods a few at a time.  That worked.  Then I started adding mods a cluster at a time.  OK, fine.  Kept doing that time and time again.  15,000 mods take a while.  So far all my script mods work.  I'm going to find those mods that caused my problem.  About 10,000 more to add.  As long as my script mods are fine, I can live with that.  This  Star Wars expansion has been a pain in the ass.

For some reason, I had to do this in the past.  Start a whole new Mods folder.  Started a new Mods folder after renaming my original Mods folder.  First I added all updated script mods.  Then moved my mods over an alphabet at a time.  Don't know why this worked, but it did.  I didn't have to delete anything.  The "S" mods had a problem with a Last exception warning...but it didn't affect the game at all.  A painstaking way to get the game back to 100 percent, but I had to do the same on another expansion pack.  Hey guys, thanks for your kindness and generosity helping me with suggestions.  Great community here.  Hope my method of fixing my problem will help someone else.
