endless loading screen for live mode

[dumbbabiclan]

after the new update i can't go into live mode.

i can make a new family, but when i try to play with them it gives me an error that tells me to restart the game.

trying to go into live mode is an endless loading screen. i've left it alone for 2+ hours to load with no results, just a loading screen.

i've already sifted through all of my mods and the culprit seems to change every time i move things around. i recently updated all my mods too, to no result.

@dumbbabiclan  Please try repairing the game in Origin: open your game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair.  If this doesn't help, please post a screenshot of the error message you see when you try to place a new household.  No need to spend much time on creating new sims; this is just for testing.

@puzzlezaddict it ended up being a wonky bit of cc, actually. i had a folder titled 'items' and it was some file in there that messed it up, so i deleted the whole thing.
