My suggestion to everyone would be to remove EVERYTHING from /Mods (and remove the localthumbcache.package out of Sims 4, also), before updating to the next patch.
The script mods from before the incoming patch are ALL going to be useless. The Python part of the patch won’t affect custom content, BUT, nobody can guarantee the content part of the patch won’t break some cc items. We’ll have to wait and see what happens, once the patch and notes are posted, and error reports start coming in to Deaderpool’s Discord, same as usual.
If your mods and cc are not organized, now would be a good time to do that. If your eyes just glazed over at the idea of sorting out your 23758237482 files, here are some quick and dirty organizing tips I put together, and if you ARE fairly obsessed with keeping order in your Mods folder, here’s a more in-depth post from Athena (Mac screenshots included!) on getting organized.
Keep in mind, after the patch, Sims4Studio and Sims 4 Tray Importer will BOTH need updates, also. BE SURE to do everything you need to, with both programs, before you update your game for the November patch. We’ll be waiting for these to come back online, as well as our script mods. You’ll find Mac and Windows links to both programs, and also links to how to do a 50/50 to find broken mods/cc, in this post from earlier this month.
Above all, Don’t Panic!! We’ve been through several big patches on Deaderpool’s Discord, and we’ve survived to tell the tale.
Just come and visit us, once the patch hits, whether you need help, or you just want to see the show. (Bring popcorn!!) We’ll be keeping up with updates as they happen, and as always, we’ll do our best to get you back into playing your game, as soon as possible.
