Sims 4 taking hours to load with mods—nothing seems to work

⁉️ CC or Mods Not Working ⁉️

Hi everyone,

I’ve spent several days trying to get my Sims game to work properly. I have around 400 GB of mods, and my computer should be able to handle it—or at least I thought it could. When I first got it, the game would open in about 15 minutes, but now it takes hours.

I’ve tried:

•	Moving my Sims to my fastest drive

•	Updating all my mods

•	Removing mods entirely

•	Deleting the thumbcache.package

•	Repairing the game

Nothing seems to help. It never used to take this long to load. Does anyone have any advice on what else I could try?

Thanks in advance!
