This issue is caused by some adult mods. I cannot name them here as we can't talk about mods that raise the rating of the game at AHQ.

 

 

EA does not officially support mods/cc and you're always using them at your own risk. They will not fix this issue. You need to get the updated version of the mods or remove them.

 

 

If you have further issues, please try the suggestion below.

 

 

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

 

You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

 

After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

 

Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

 

  • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
  • Tray Folder
  • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
  • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
  • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
  • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

Good Luck

TS4 UPDATE: DOORS NOT WORKING

★★★ Newbie

Important question: Am I the only one experiencing problems with the doors after the new TS4 update?! All my doors are deleted and I can't even place new ones = it's impossible to play the game at all Frown also some of the control keys won't respond either, like it won't zoom or rotate. this is so frustrating, I'm assuming it could be an issue with the new script / patch, so i can't be the only one with this problem?

(yes i have tried to remove all CC and mods, they are not causing this issue)

@fridaljunggren95  thank you for telling us you use Mods/CC.  Angel  But sometimes it isn't enough to just remove the mods. Disappointed  Here is what you can do:

 

1) After temporarily removing your Mods folder to your desktop (which you already have done)...

2) delete the localthumbcache.package file in the Game Folder.

2) Fix you game in Origin by Logging in to Origin and go to the "Library" and right-click on The Sims 4 and choose "Repair game" from the list. Wait for Origin to fix all of the packs you own, and not just the base game.

3) Turn on the game.  This will make the game create a new Mods folder that will be empty. Check to see if your game is now working properly.

 

If this fixes your game then it was the Mods/CC causing the problem and you would need to get updated versions of any of your Mods or CC that is broken from the people who created them, once they have updated them.

But it can be difficult to find which Mod or CC is the culprit.  You can read about the process in the link below.  If you have a lot of mods/CC you will have to do the 50/50 Method explained in a flow chart in the first spoiler section.  https://answers.ea.com/t5/Game-Information/CC-and-Mod-Use/td-p/6980073

 

My doors are present in my game, but I have never used Mods or CC. Raised eyebrow  

 

If removing your Mods/CC , deleting your local thumb cache package file, and repairing your game in Origin doesnt' help, then your problem is something else, at least in part.

Please reply back to update us what happens! Standard smile

Best of luck! Fingers crossed

Re: can't place door

Hero

HI @MamaYoung143 

 

the not being able to place doors is mod/cc related. The computer probably too.

 

Please make sure to only use mods/cc that is either deemed fine to work with the patch or updated.

Good Luck

The script error and not being able to place door is related to certain adult mods. Try removing those
