Mods Not Working? [Fixed!]
« on: August 29, 2022, 07:45:26 PM »
I have tried everything to get my mods to work and they haven't, i've tried deleting script cache: Doesn't work, i've tried to see if its a bad mod or not, the only mod i'm using is not a bad mod, its the skip intro mod.. and i don't know if i have to turn on mods inside the sims 3 like the sims for but i don't know.

When I can't get mods to work, I usually move my mods folder to my desktop and copy them in one by one or in a small batch, say 5 of them, to see which one is causing issues. Deleting cache file before testing each batch of mods. 

For reference the game cache files are:

CasPartCache.package ; compositorCache.package ; scriptCache.package ;  simCompositorCache.package ; socialCache.package

Load the game.. If you don't see the opening intro. That means the skip the intro mod is at least working. Quit without saving.

If you find mods not working when trying a batch of 5, try a smaller batch of say 3 mods per batch, but don't forget to delete cache each batch test. This help clear the game's memory of the mods that aren't working.

If you want to know more about fixing issues with mods, we have a post on that linked below:
