TS3 CC not showing up in-game, marked as "package.disabled"

Okay, so ever since about June, I've had this issue: I installed the CC Magic mod, and immediately after that, half of my CC stop working and said it was disabled. I've tried to remove "disabled" from the package name, as someone on Reddit told me to do that, but it didn't work.

What can do I to fix this that doesn't involve tediously downloading each item again? I use Windows 10 on a 2020 (or 2019) Motile laptop. I tried Windows 11 to see if that would fix it, but it didn't. (And I loathe Windows 11.)

The Sims 4 and DX11 for dual GPU

TIP FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM: If you're running The Sims 4 on a dual GPU system that is DX11-capable and should run DX11 by default as of the September 2024 patch but your game will not automatically start in DX11

TL;DR —

Go to your gaming GPU control panel and set global settings to default to your high performance processor.

Details (NVIDIA-specific) —

On a Windows 11 PC, open NVIDIA Control Panel. Chose the following option: 3D Settings > Global settings > High performance NVIDIA processor

It might also be required to do the following, if changing the global setting as above does not work alone: Windows System > Display > Graphics > The Sims 4 > Options > High performance

Background info —

Apparently, the game detects your system default GPU, rather than the GPU assigned to actually run The Sims 4.

So, if you have a dual graphics processor system, and your native GPU does not support DX11 / is not supported by The Sims 4 for DX11, even if your game is running on a high performance GPU, you will have to change your global default for the system to that supported GPU.

I play on a machine with an internal Intel UHD Graphics included with the Intel Core i7 processer and an integrated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop.

Although I set the game to run using the NVIDIA GPU (Windows System, above); the game's config.log file confirmed that this was working as expected; and I confirmed updated drivers and even launched the game via the app NVIDIA GeForce Experience... the game still launched in DX9.

When I changed the global setting in the app NVIDIA Control Panel, the game launches in DX11, as expected.

Please feel free to share this anywhere you think it could be useful.

I posted about this in the appropriate EA Answers HQ thread, where I was helped by other users (puzzlezaddict, espeon9466, MapleSimmer), but I'm not super active in the online TS4 community these days so I'm not sure where else it would be helpful.

hi everyone! i’ve gotten back into playing this last weekend after a long time of not being able to due to university. i’ve recently been having an issue with the game, and i was just wondering if this problem i’m having is a common one and whether there was any known way of solving it?

every time i try to have my sims make friends with other sims, it seems like they’re always having an awkward/tedious interaction that results in lost friendship. i notice it mostly with the mischievous interactions but even sometimes with normal humorous or friendly ones too. i don’t think it’s that i’m doing too many in a row of one type of interaction because i’ve been trying to make sure i do variation, i.e. no more than two of the same categry of interaction in a row, so i’m at a lost. if anyone has any guidance i would be forever grateful 🥲👏

I’ve always gone back and forth about whether to picture Martin stabbing Jon in the front or the back because there’s such beautiful symbolic potential for both.

Like on the one had you’ve got the image that they’re cradling the knife between them, both holding it during perhaps the closest thing they’ve had to a true act of free will in a long time. Jon can’t press the knife in, but he can ease the blow for Martin. He can tell him it’s okay, that he forgives him even though there’s nothing to forgive. It’s horrible and painful, but it’s also setting them free. The blood would get on both of them as they held each other, and, at first glance, you wouldn’t be able to tell whose it was.

But then on the other hand you’ve got nothing coming between them, not even this, not even now. It’s Jon being killed by the same person in whose arms he’s currently finding comfort—and those two things are not at odds. It’s the potential that, if the knife is long enough, Martin could cut himself as well, but that doesn’t matter because his heart already broke with Jon’s anyway. It’s two people who have always found it so hard to trust taking the ultimate symbol of betrayal and turning it into a symbol of loyalty.

And I don’t know which I love more.

Help 101 🆘

Hi guys, I saw a lot of simmer having an issue with the game. I'm assumed that happen after the new update, right? So here what I did and also I got this tips from my mutual too.

1. U need to back up with all ur save file. Either it ur cc mod, script mods, tray file and save file. Put it on backup folder in ur PC or laptop. (*this method is IMPORTANT, it also will help, if ur save file got corrupted or lost)

2. Clear all the cache file in ur ea file.

3. Try to fix ur game 50/50 :

1st, try without mods and use vanilla save file, not ur own save file and please don't save.

(solution) if u found out that,using the 1st method still make ur game error, try to get a new ea file and test again. Usually it won't cause problem.

2nd, try take out ur script mod either it Mcc, ww or any mod that have script with it and did the same like the 1st.

(solution) if u found out that, using the 2nd method still make ur game error, try to remove all the script mod and check with the mods creator website or patreon, if they update their mods or not. If all the script mod are updated, that means It's not bcause of it. And if the mod u have still not update, remove it and test without it again.

3rd, put back all ur mods and did the same thing again.

(solution) usually cc also will cause error with the game. but all I do is I did the 1st solution, which I get a new ea file and transfer all the backup that I already did without cc file. and run the test again. I have 2 back up file, 1st that have cc and script mods and 2nd that only have script mods. So when ever there's error i just use it to trun the test.

4. I recommend to have Better Exception mods in ur game, it will help if to find duplicate cc or if there's any broken mods, it will let u know.

I did the same things, with the infinite loading screen and also my save file got corrupted before.

Yes it's alot of fixing and took alot of time but it's worthy, if u still care about ur sims. So far,I don't have issue after I did this method. Hope this method or tips help u out. And if u guys have any add on with ur own tips, feel free to add on. Ur help are appreciate too and tq ❤.

ARTISTS FOR PALESTINE 🇵🇸 - ROUND 2!! On the 16th and 23rd of March, I'll be doing art requests on stream with other notable artists to raise money for Operation Olive Branch and Project Watermelon.

This round's roster is very lucky to include notable webcomic artists like explodikid, Graveweaver, Curryuku and Speremint who respectively create Covenant, I'm The Grim Reaper, Not So Shoujo Love Story and Brimstone and Roses on WEBTOON. We also have Onstamonsta, an artist, streamer and Kiryu fan who Drawfee fans might recognise and the exceptionally talented Jessie Lam!

Last fundraising event was a great success, and I hope some of you might show up for this next round of streams. All money will be donated directly to Palestinian escape funds as the situation of Rafah is becoming exponentially worse (and if you'd like to donate directly, here's a link to a spreadsheet of over 750!)

As always, these fundraisers will always be available to watch over on my twitch channel. Thank you all and free Palestine!
