State of Mods
EA still has some outstanding issues with mods folders blocking some players games from launching. This is not the original issue. This one is sporadic and inherently difficult to locate the cause due to the inconsistency.
This is causing a lot of false accusations of random mods being the cause for player's games not launching.
In summary:
1. The Failure to launch issue is an EA bug in some form or capacity and requires EA to complete their investigation.
2. It is useless to make claims about random mods being broken right now, as your testing is not reliable.
Please refrain from such claims until EA has resolved this.
The three remaining issues for my mods are:
1. Better BuildBuy currently doesn't display the Maker Kits filter in buildbuy.
2. All Scenarios needs a compatibility update.
3. CAW Alpha needs a compatibility update.
All other mods by me are working, but that doesn't exclude you from having issues from this EA bug.

I have SO many issues due to this latest update, I am about to backup, uninstall and reinstall.. I an considering a "i wanna speak to your manager" wig and then I may write a very strongly worded email to EA that outlines my disgust with all of this. THIS IS OUR GAME AND THEY ARE FKING RUINING IT FOR US PLAYERS. I am tired of having so many issues in my game where these last few months all I do is remove mods, cc, diagnose issues, add back in and try and find out what's wrong with my game, update stuff etc. I spend so little time playing it's getting to a point where it's ALMOST not worth it to turn the game on anymore, ALMOST! I love this game, been playing since it developed and released in 2000 and some days I need it to release my worldly tensions (as many others do as well). I own EVERY single pack, kit etc but when I logged on yesterday, it said I was missing most of it, so I logged back out, back on and it was fine again. WTF! I have researched more about this game than anything else these last few months. It's bonkers. I really admire and feel bad for you modders, sincerely. I love y'all! THANK YOU for everything y'all do *rant over* (for now)
I install a MOd Manager which point me which duplicate mods or ccs, which is overlapping or conflict with each other, it quarantine the wrong one, and as for mods a lot was no framework like 400+ of my mods. This is what my Mod manager says .
We do not recommend or support mod managers. They usually make a bigger mess of your mods folder.
I took all of my mods out and it still wouldn’t load but once I took my CC folders out then it would load so what should I go with the CC folders or wait till EA figures out the bug issue
Thank you
Thank you very much for explaining this. It hadn't happened to me yet, but when it did, I remembered your post. Now, it happens off and on, but I wait patiently and do household chores. :)
I am so SICK and TIRED of EA MESS!! This is beyond ridiculous
EA is pissing me the EFF off! incompetence at it's finest!
It sometimes happens to me, so I just restart the app after deleting the various caches and it usually starts up. Seems like a temporary hiccup.
Ea says they think they know the problem. And hope to have a patch, early next week. According to their Discord
Thank you for the update! I thought I was going crazy with not seeing the Maker Packs filter!
Really thanks, was even uninstalling mods thinking it was my problem, even checking one by one. really the worst company to keep games, even gog games or Epic are far way better as launchers
Thank you! I thought I was doing something wrong! I've done a whole spring cleaning of my mods folder, but nothing was working. I've updated everything I could, UGH. It's been 3 days, and I just want to finish my house!!
It's not your mods or Cc it's an ea issue. It's not recognizing Cc. They hope to patch early next week.
I've been trying to get my game to load for hours. I will say that the issue is... Annoyingly unclear. I was going folder by folder and eventually realized that it was a nonsensical error and if I just kept pressing play, it would load with mod folders. So, I persisted and now have all but 11 folders in there. All of the mods you marked as working are fine. The whole thing is fine. EA just really screwed the pooch with this marketplace which should have been a console opportunity only. Persistence pays off with the latest error, though.
