Yeah, I have a not so funny one that happened just now:
SO, until friday work was going smoothly but then on saturday when I came home from my job I couldn't booth the sims to get the last images I need for Sarah's event , then I spent all sunday uninstalling and installing mods and whatever ,updating drivers all that, but still the game won't launch.
Until today that I was so fed up that I tried reinstalling the whole game again, and boom the game finally works again, but there's no saves no nothing, and I was like wtf?! then I go check my documents folder (where the mods and the saves are) and there's nothing, all the folders are empty, and I was like "FUCK I'll HAVE TO REINSTALL ALL MODS,RECREATE ALL CHARACTERS,ALL LOCATIONS,I'LL HAVE TO MAKE EVERYTHING AGAIN!!!"
But then when I was about to give up I noticed the new folder was 7gb and I was like "What?! How is this folder 7gb if it's empty" and then I noticed that somehow my old folder with all my mods and characters was tucked inside the new one so the game wasn't reading it because it was in a subfolder.
so yeah I finally breathed, now I'm making a few backups and then I'll see if I can booth the game with all my stuff in it
TLDR: GAME BROKE FOR 3 DAYS, UNINSTALLED IT, INSTALLED IT AGAIN, ALL FILES GONE,PANICKED,ALL FILES FOUND,RELIEF, SARAH EVENT ALMOST DONE(she is a main girl so she gets a big event just like mom and twins)
