There are issues with the game and Monterey - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/macOS-Monterey-and-new-Sims-4-update-crashing-problem...

A lastCrash report is far more helpful, if you have one in the Sims 4 folder from when it last happened that would be really helpful. Just remove the xml from the first line then copy/paste it here.

Hello @feutzyn 

 

(Sorry for the delayed response)

Do you see a lastCrash file in \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\?

 

If so, can you share this file?

@Luvevul

That crash report is from June. Do you have a more recent one?

I really don't know why this isn't more well known because it's a major issue for those who use MacOS Monterey.

@celeschul

It's actually much better and has been improved in patches. Your game is modded. Please try a clean game with a new Sims 4 folder and then post a LastCrash report if it still happens.

@Bluebellflora Is is that the MacOS Monterey is not compatible with mods? That's very frustrating and really shouldn't be the case.

@celeschul

No of course not but you need to try a clean game. Mods are in the game, not the operating system.

Hello @celeschul 

 

If you still encounter the crash with an empty Mods folder, would you be willing to share your affected save files?

 

If so, instructions are here:
