Common Issues and Fixes
Issue: Some players experience a broken or misaligned game interface after installing the Sims 4 UI Cheats Extension. In this issue, the mod itself works, but the icons along the bottom of the screen appear misplaced or incorrect. This usually occurs when the mod’s version doesn’t match the latest game update or when other UI-related mods are installed that are no longer compatible. Even if UI Cheats is the only mod in your Mods folder, running an outdated version or using an older game version can still cause these issues.
To fix this:
- Update The Sims 4 to the latest version
- Remove outdated or conflicting UI mods
- Download the newest UI Cheats Extension from the official source
- Restart your game after applying changes to ensure the interface loads correctly
Game Crashing After Installation: The crashes are usually signs of mod conflicts or corrupted files. To fix this issue, clear the localthumbcache.package
file from the Sims 4 folder and remove any outdated mods. If the issue persists, temporarily deactivate all other mods and recheck it.
