EA’s Aug 19 Patch & SimRealist Mods

EA’s 8/19 update changed how scripts load, which affects injection-based mods (including ours). We’re actively reviewing and updating all SimRealist mods.

 

 

 

What to do right now

 

• Remove all SimRealist mods from your Mods folder

• Delete localthumbcache.package

• Keep Script Mods enabled

• When new SR builds appear, install and test

• If you want to keep playing meanwhile, use a new save so you don’t advance your main households without SR features and risk losing mod-related progress.

 

 

 

We’ll post mod status updates and downloads here as fixes go live. Thanks for your patience while we work through the updates.💚

Have you turned Script Mods back on in the Game Options after the update?

The updates usually turn that setting off by default.

[Juanitoperez13]

You are a genius, you were absolutely right. I enabled the mods but I didn't notice the scripts box.

[Juanitoperez13]

However, it no longer let me play, so I checked all the mods and the one that was damaging everything was the AEP.

I have the same issue,  I will keep watching for a fix.

Did you check to make sure that script mods were enabled in your options? Also with the new patch you may have to go through your script mods, and figure out what may be causing your issue The latest patch borked quite a few.

[NazT77]

Yeah, I deleted all mods and reinstalled just the wicked Whims.; but the scripts are not working for it. I sent the last exception and tried to reinstall again.

Ok.. If script mods are enabled in the options, and you get that only with WW installed.. Check to make sure the script is not more than 1 folder deep.. 

[NazT77]

Thanks for the help, It's working now. I had to move WickedWhims so it was only one folder deep and check for duplicate files in other mods.

Got the exact same problem as in the screenshot above. 

Scripts are enabled and it even recognizes the wicked wims mod, the only mod I'm running at the moment:

 

I deleted the localthumbs and even wickedwhims in the saves folder. Still the same error. Any ideas?

Seeing as that is the only mod you are running, the only thing it could be is that the script file is more than 1 folder deep.

[daenwallace]

Thought of that too, but the folders be like:

C:\Users\myname\Documents\Electronic Arts\Die Sims 4\Mods\WickedWhimsMod

Then the only thing I can think of, if the .package and .script files are in the WWMod folder, is that scripts are not enabled in the Options. Most updates turn off scripts and you have to manually reenable them. That is all I can think of sorry.

What's the exact version of The Sims 4 you're running?

[daenwallace]

Nothing to be sorry about, you guys are a great help.

 

Scripts and Mods are enabled both. 

 

My exact version is: 1.117.227.1030. DX11

 

 

When I let ChatGPT analyze my last exception log it says: Exception in Sim Timeline: Exception running Element (KeyError: 15826)

You can upload your lastexception file here for someone else to look at it.

Might be helpful to get a bit more info from it.

 

MC Command Center Mod has very good error reporting too, besides other things, so you might want to give it a try. 

[daenwallace]

After deleting every mod with a script in it except for WhickedWims which was not touched I now only get the error message above without triggering any exception.

BUT WW seems to work somehow as it for example stated that I now installed 14k animations.

When clicking on a sim I can also choose between pose or customizitation - but every sex action is unavailable.

 

As there is no exception the only log I have right now is: 

 

WickedWhimsInfoLog.log

[daenwallace]

Got it.

I deactivated my McAfee Realtime Scan for 15 minutes, started the game and everything worked. Well. ^^
