No text/letters eco lifestyle

★★★ Newbie

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? can not find it in origin, it has the new june update
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All the expansion packs and gamepacks. Some stuff packs
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In the setting you have for example own settings for seasons etc. I think eco lifestyle has that to but there is no text just green hooks on the page. I have the impression that you can vote on stuff on the tablet/board outside, it has several options but no text. Even the persons who are promoting stuff have no text when they show up in the notification board. It is to my knowledge that this only happens with things related to the eco lifestyle pack. I have now removed my mods and it still wont work as it should.
What happens when the bug occurs? There is no text what so ever.
What do you expect to see? Text
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Here are some screenshots

Blank texts Eco Lifestyle and last update

★★★ Newbie

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.63.134.1220
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Every expansions, game packs and stuff packs except Spooky Stuff and Luxury Party Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? The texts related to the latest update (1.63.133.1220) and the new expansion Eco Lifestyle are not appearing, it is blank.
What happens when the bug occurs? In the Main Menu, the Eco Lifestyle's title do not appear, it is just showing "Owned". In Manage Worlds, the new names and descriptions of the neighborhoods are not showing, just the icons are there, the Foot Print's icon do not show a description when dragging the mouse on it such as the neighborhoods foot prints as well (You can't see if it is industrial, neutral or green except from the icon's color) and you can't go back from the Foot Print view after clicking on the icon. In the Game Options, the Eco Lifestyle's tab is just blank between Get Famous's tab and Game Camera's tab. When clicking on it, you can't see anything on the page except the two checkmarks. In Gameplay, every notifications in the Notifications Wall related to Eco Lifestyle is blank. On the mailbox, all the interactions possible with the new update and expansion (bills and vote) are blank. When clicking on the blank bill's interaction, you can see on the top the title "$FDE76E08", on the left column "$9E38EA75" and the right one "$58509BA1" twice with two check marks for each, nothing else appears. When clicking on the blank vote's interaction, you can see the option vote's icons and nothing else. For the sim, when checking for the vote's period, nothing appears except the background. For the Inventory 2.0, it is practically impossible to use because everything is blanked for the "Sort By" option and the "Filter Items" option and the option to favorite objects is blank except for an orange circle. Finally, the last thing I've tested was the dumpsters, were the interactions are all blanked except for the "Try for Baby" because it is a text from base game. Those are the few bugs' examples that I've noticed after purchasing the new expansion. There are probably other bugs, but I think it is pretty self-explanatory.
What do you expect to see? The texts should appear.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I've downloaded the latest update (1.63.133.1220) and the new expansion Eco Lifestyle.

The rest of the game is alright. I didn't experience any crashes.
