Update-related issues
Unfortunately, Sims 4 updates sometimes bring issues of their own. Oftentimes, many mods will stop working after players install the latest Sims 4 patches and updates.
This is because mods and CC aren’t always compatible with the latest game version.
Mods and CC creators then need to update the programs as quickly as possible to make them compatible with the latest Sims 4 version.
If you’re experiencing any glitches or errors after installing the latest Sims 4 update, report the bugs to EA.
