Hi @DominikaSimGirl

 

this error is usually due to incompatible custom content

 

Are you using any ?

Hi  @crinrict Thank you so much for helping me out! If i do have any incompatible custom conetnt how do I get rid of it? My computer is saying I have to reinstall the sims4. Does it mean I have to buy it again and start everything over with origin and the game?

No, you don't need to reinstall,

 

The 50/50 Method explained here: http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Finding_Problem_Custom_Content is the fastest way to find out which cc is causing issues and then you just remove that.

You're welcome.

 

Enjoy your game.

 

It's always good to make regular backups of your user files: http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/backups/
