About This Thread
NOTE: This thread is now obsolete. For current info, see the pinned posts in Mod/CC Issues But please go ahead and use this thread to catch up on a big patch!
This thread tracks Sims 4 mods and CC that have been "broken" or made obsolete by game updates or declared unsupported by their creators. It also tracks updated game mods and major updates to custom content. If you use mods, this thread's lists and ongoing reports can help you prevent game errors and help you avoid having to do a 50-50 of all your mods. Consider subscribing to the thread to receive notifications by email (select "Topic Options").
NOTE: This thread also covers the July 23–August 8 hotfixes.
Some things are NOT covered:
In the end, YOU are responsible for your mod use. Because not all content and creators are covered on this official forum, many of you should be following creators directly for news. The pinned topic How to Use Mods and CC includes advice about game updates, mod management, finding broken mods, and how to avoid downloading broken content. See the topic on Malicious Script Mods for further information on one kind of issue to watch for. And remember… Back up your Saves folder!

Need to tell me something?
If you're a creator, I welcome being contacted about known issues, updates, patch compatibility (although I’m now posting “cleared” for fewer creators/mods, I track it for support), mod adoption, and other news. My DMs are also open for creators here and on Tumblr (luthsthings). I can be reached on Discord from many Sims 4 creators' and Sims 4 support servers.
I do not respond to DMs for support unless I've asked you to DM me.

Newly Broken/Obsolete Game Mods
See also the Previously Broken list below for mods broken by earlier game updates. The Updated Mods post below this one includes mods that were broken, not just feature updates. Also listed separately: Broken CC: CAS and Build/Buy custom content, including gameplay objects.
If you're coming here for the first time, you can work your way through the lists till you're caught up. If you've already done that, the posts after the lists are dated by each day, so you can keep up with what's happened since the last cay you checked.

Previously Broken Mods/CC
Obsolete as of Patch 1.107 (May 28)
These mods are either bugfixes that are no longer needed or mods that are no longer supported. For recently broken mods, see below.
NOTE: This is a selected (NOT complete) list. Some modders have a note here to “presume all broken” based on a combination of how some mods are known broken and their inactivity. This list excludes many retired mods, many obsolete bugfixes, and many mods that have been long, long broken. However, it can be a helpful step and save many people from having to do a 50-50. The CC list is very selective. See also: Malicous Script Mods and Malware. And see the current Broken Mods list for some known issues for popular mods that work otherwise
LE = last exception
Note: Some things are duplicated here and in the list above if they’re build/buy gameplay mods.
