Off-Lot Objects Bug
So if y'all remember this gif from last month (thanks for the support on that!), I TOOLed a lot of things outside the lot to make that scene. And I promise I deleted everything afterwards. Well I came back to the lot a few days ago and all the objects were there again, and I couldn't select them with the TOOL. They were just a part of the world. :/
After reaching out to Twisted Mexi on his discord, he explained the following: "EA implemented a fix for objects off-lot ending up in the sky. Unfortunately when they did, older saves may have this bug where objects are unclickable and off-lot." A member also let me know that this was a recent issue previously reported.
So I basically went into my most recent .save file using Sims 4 Studio and deleted the objects from that lot. If anyone is having that issue, let me know and I'd be glad to put up some screenshots showing the process. If you have prior knowledge of deleting objects out of the world, it's the same thing, just in your .save file instead of the .world files.

Infinite Loading DX11 Sept 18th Patch
It's not you, it's them (for the most part).
If after removing all of your mods you still cannot get into your saves using the load game > resume, method, switch back to DX9 and the issue should be resolved.
If the DX9 switch is missing in your game graphics options, quit, and enter the value manually in the EA Desktop app by clicking manage > view properties > type in -dx9 > click save
Obviously, this is less than ideal, DX11 has been buggy from the start, while it brings greater graphics performance and the ability to use more advanced reshade shaders, once again, I'd recommend protecting your most critical saves, and only playing those saves on DX9 until a solution can be found for this issue.
Presently, I take screenshots on DX11, but do gameplay on DX9, and ironically, DX11 doesn't allow my current save to load when I have all mods removed, but it does at least let me get into my one household with my CC folder, I just cannot travel away from the home lot without infinite loading.
*I spent cumulatively 5 days extensively testing this bug back in July with my own CC folder and there is no rhyme or reason for it. There was no consistency in this error occurring with CC, saves, lots, etc. the only time it occurred was when playing with DX11, and after generating a completely fresh EA Folder. Save yourself the headache, if your lots were fine before the update, and you have updated all of your mods but still getting the infinite loading screen with no error code, try doing this first.*

I was doing some cleaning from my mods folder (which was soo necessary at this point lol things were starting to get out of hand lol) I noticed after removing some files, I was unable to load my current household. It was stuck in that infinite loading screen bug??
Long story short, it was an Infant Playmat recolor (this is the one I used in particular) that caused the infinite loading screen bug for me. Without that CC, a last exception was prompted for me that read:
"T:\InGame\Gameplay\Scripts\Server\developmental_milestones\developmental_milestone_tracker.py"
After doing some searching, it appears that any infant milestones that were achieved using that particular playmat, will be linked to that playmat. So without it, your game (or at least for me) will not be able to read any of infant milestones!
Wild, huh? I didn't think a simple recolor would cause that kind of a bug. I thought it would be helpful to share this just in case anyone else was experiencing any of this weirdness.
(Also, I'm not saying the creator of the recolor was aware of this happening or even knew this would happen, but I'm sure this an issue with the original file to begin with)

Does anybody actually know what causes the unremoveable CC glitch? or how to fix it even?
I took off the tattoo but it is still there and i can even apply something in the same category
Can only remove it by the undo button
EDIT thanks to @azeternasims
That was the exact issue

Question for TS4 Modders
If I hypothetically wanted to read through all of the text strings in the game, like all the career chance cards and npc dialogue (those little lore bits you can ask certain npcs about), is there a way for me to do that?
I want to comprehensively catalogue the npcs lore, and I'd like to know that i've seen all of it. I would also like to look for hidden lore in the career chance cards.
I just want to poke through the files and record what i find, is that reasonably achievable for someone with basically no coding/modding experience?

Hello!Your work is very inspiring. I admire your taste. Tell me, how do you arrange objects so evenly? Especially on the kitchen shelves. I read a lot of information, but I couldn't find how to place items exactly on the shelves. Because I only manage to expose a few items (although I enter the code so that there are no conflicts with the items)everyday life
@victoriasolo,
Thank you so much! There are two main ways to "free place" (aka off grid or without snapping) objects on shelves and counters. Here is a video tutorial on the non-mod way, and the other method, is to use an OMSP tool.
OMSP = One More Slot Please
I like using @ravasheencc, and @pictureamoebae's: (1) (2)
Hope this helps! ❤

is anyone else dealing with infinite loading screens lately? i've been trying all kinds of methods trying to fix it for the last 4 days. i tried doing 50/50, removing all cc/mods altogether, repairing, deleting caches, resetting ea app. like literally everything.
my only solution so far is removing mc command center (but do i wanna play without it? erm no not really.)
my households only load without mccc and everything else or with mccc and nothing else. its very strange.
also i don't have any game breaking conflicts and all my mods are updated to the 1.98/1.99 patch.
i'm very desperate atp lmao. any help is appreciated!
#and its the way i was gonna upload more things this week#my game literally said nah#ts4 bug#ts4 help#idk what else to tag this as :')

Also, if you find your game stuck with hanging loading screen...
Here's what to do:
Once you get to the game's main menu, click on "Load Save"
Select the "Recover Save" option.
The game will recover the save files, and you'll be able to load your save again. It will take you to the manage worlds map of your save but it will be there and safe to play.
