The More Columns mod may sometimes stop working in The Sims 4. This issue usually occurs after installing the latest game updates.
The best way to prevent this problem is to disable automatic game updates in Origin. In this manner, you’ll prevent The Sims 4 from automatically updating to the latest version when new updates are available.
As a quick reminder, new Sims 4 game updates often break mods and CC. This problem is usually caused by incompatibility issues. Mod creators can quickly fix these issues by updating their mods.
Let’s see what you can do to fix More Columns.
How to fix More Columns mod if it’s not working in Sims 4
Update More Columns to the latest version
If More Columns stopped working right after you installed the latest Sims 4 game updates, this indicates the mod is incompatible with that game version.
Go to its creator’s official Patreon page and check if a new mod version is available. Weerbesu usually updates More Columns one of two days before a major Sims 4 update gets released.
Make sure you’re running the latest mod version on your machine.
Refresh your Mods folder
Try refreshing the contents in your Mods folder and check if you notice any changes.
Navigate to the Documents folder, open the Sims 4 folder, and move the Mods folder to your desktop.
Then, launch The Sims 4 to force the game to recreate the Mods folders.
Exit the game, and move the contents from the original Mods folder into the new folder that the game just created.
Restart your game client, launch The Sims 4 again, and check if the More Columns mod is working properly.
Repair your game
If More Columns won’t work due to corrupted game files, repairing your game files in Origin should solve the problem.
- Go to your Sims 4 folder in Documents
- Delete the localthumbcache.package file
- Launch Origin
- Right-click on The Sims 4
- Repair the game
Check if that helps.
Tweak your resolution settings
If the More Columns mod won’t display 4 columns in CAS, this usually means your resolution is lower than 1600×900. Edit your display resolution settings and switch to 1920×1080 or higher.
You may need to restart the game to apply the new resolution settings.
Conclusion
If More Columns won’t work in The Sims 4, install the latest mod version on your computer. Then, move your Mods folder to your desktop and repair your game files. Edit your display settings and switch to a 1920×1080 resolution or higher.
