Why are my CC mods not working in Sims 4?

Your Sims 4 CC (Custom Content) mods aren't working likely because they were disabled after a game update, need unzipping, aren't placed correctly (missing resource.cfg), or are broken/outdated; you need to re-enable them in Game Options, extract .zip/.rar files, ensure mods are in the right folder with the resource.cfg file, and potentially delete cache files and repair the game to fix conflicts or broken content.

Did the new Sims 4 update break mods?

Yes, recent Sims 4 updates, like the August 2025 patch (1.117) and subsequent ones (Nov/Dec 2025), have broken many script mods, Custom Content (CC), and core tools, causing game errors, crashes, and broken world loading, requiring players to check mod creators' sites for updates or risk issues. Script mods, UI alterations, and those affecting core gameplay (needs, traits, menus) are hit hardest, though many popular ones like MC Command Center and UI Cheats have received updates, while older/niche mods often break or become obsolete, so players must actively manage and update their libraries.
