Suddenly Freezing and no choice, but to close

[TheItalianSim]

So this has started suddenly today, not too long ago. I been able to play the Sims with no problems with CC content. I was even playing earlier today when I decided to take a break. I come back to play it  when suddenly my game would freeze when it started, stopping on the Sims 4 logo then close. I took out all my CC to see if that was a problem and sure enough it would load up fine. I began to put them in by folder names like 'building', 'accessories' and so on. It was when I got to hair and clothes did it suddenly begin to freeze. Now hair just made it freeze, but not close. Clothes made it freeze and close though. I tried putting in the oldest mods I had of hair first and it would freeze and close. I don't understand why it would do that when those were old mods I had for a long time and suddenly the game can't handle it. The most recent time I installed CC was the 23rd and it has been working fine until 3 days ago. I did have a mod for relationship decay and did remove that. It seems like my hair and clothes CC are making the game freeze before closing.
I did delete cache files, turn off origin, and nothing seems to do anything.
 Any help?

Hi TheItalianSim,

Due to the recent patch, it is recommended to make sure the mods and/or custom content is up to date. Sometimes the patches will mess up how the mods and/or custom content work, causing incompatibility issues.

You'll need to go through the custom content and mods to find which need to be updated.

Ah darn :I Do you think they'll fix this? I can already tell going through each one is gonna be such a pain since I love finding CC hair and clothes so there is a lot.

When you say 'see which one needs to be updated' do I have to go back to where I got it(like the source) or somehow check somewhere else?

They most likely won't fix the issue with incompatible mods. As that's up to the individual mod/custom content creator to keep up to date.

However, I'm sure given time there will be someone that will have a program or whatnot that will help you go through mods and custom content.

What I mean is that you'll need to take the mods/custom content out of the mods folder. Create a temp mods folder. Move all the mods/custom content into that folder. Copy the mods/cc one by one till you find the files that are out dated.

Here's an howto of sorts. --

Custom Content and Mods
http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/forum/index.php/topic,21899.msg403089.html#msg403089

If you find that the content is outdated, then you'll most likely want to search for it again.

Well I'll hope someone does that and perhaps they will since I may not be the only one with this issue.

I see what you mean and I remember doing that a bit before so I suppose I got a head start for myself.

Thank you for helping and replying back so fast!

Speaking of finding a program that will help with going through custom content/mods this page may be of help.

For tools and other important links:

I just found this link, I don't know if any of the tools for the cc or mods will help, but it may be worth looking into.
