my builds are being flagged as modded despite no mods or CC

★★★ Newbie

Hi y'all! I've been having this issue for a while but have yet to figure out a resolution. Basically, even though my builds are CC-free and I don't have any mods installed (I previously had MCCC and UI cheats but uninstalled them because I thought they were causing the issue) whenever I go to upload a build I've done to the gallery, it marks it as having custom content. I've tried repairing my game and that did nothing. If I turn off all CC in the game I can upload them without them being flagged, but the second I load my CC back in and re-place the no CC lots from my library, it says it has CC again. Is there any way to fix this other than just turning off CC? I like having skin overrides and eyelashes and some custom tattoos but that's literally all I use, so I don't know why this might be happening. Is it the fact that I have overrides? I should note that I don't have any custom paintings or pictures or anything in there, either.

 

Thanks in advance!

@emofthevalley Easiest is probably if you use 50/50 method on your cc to see what is flagging it.

Is someone living in the house or is it empty ?

Yeah, SO annoying, I feel you. I build or do my CAS thing, save, save to my library, go to main menu, disable mods and CC, restart, open my library, and upload from there. Enable mods and CC, restart.

 

My impression is that if you have ANY mods or CC, it marks your build or CAS as modded.

 

I don't have a solution, just sympathy.

I'm now having this problem after switching to the EA app. Even though there is NO cc in my build, it's flagged as modded when I save it to my library. The only way around it is to disable mods before saving it. In addition, when I disable mods and load the build, I get a message saying some items were removed even though nothing is missing (because I didn't use any cc in the first place).

 

So, you can work around it, but it's really inconvenient. This issue has been reported many times over the years, but has never been addressed AFAIK.
