Help please. Updated and now: "Game Data Incomplete" :cry: [SOLVED]

First topic message reminder :

The Ultimate Fix page was updated YESTERDAY (26-09-2015: Fix is now working with The Sims 4 version 1.10.57.1020 (Update-only version updated) , right?

If so, do I update the game with THAT version or do I need to update it with the version right before it:  16-09-2015: Fix is now working with The Sims 4 version 1.10.57.1020 (New download links, instructions updated) , and THEN with the one above, or JUST with the one above (from yesterday)?

Elle, I found it, thank you, but it says it is downloading the 2.40GB version so I am stopping it. Maybe my torrent folder is not added to my exception list and it is deleting part of it from the start though I am positive I do have it as an exception plus my anti-virus disabled.  Ughhh, so confused.

SimArchitect, not sure which link of yours to use ... so I clicked on http://tinyurl.com/qekdl8b [MediaFire] and it is downloading the 4.7GB version of The Sim 4 Spa Day Cool Kitchen Stuff which I think I already have, unless this is the updated version in which case, MANY THANKS in advance .

That was not the case for me. I had everything installed and running fine until the latest (official) Ultimate Fix.

It seems like something went wrong with that file size reduction…

SA, installed the one from your link but it still seems to be an older version that I already had.  This may be useful/helpful for people that did not back the game up and need to get Granite Falls back.  Thank you for sharing.  As for me, the game still tells me that there is a newer version when trying to install two lots in particular. (Something about it was created in a newer version of the game, to shut down and update, and try again).  

In any case, thanks for all the replies and will keep checking back for new fixes .

I believe that all these problems are due to people installing the games in the wrong order. Normally the order is:


Base game -> Get to Work (!!!) -> Ultimate fix. 


Many people apply the fix first and then "Get to Work", which is wrong. This is the exact reason why I decided to put everything into my "temporary" fix, 2 months ago. In order to reduce filesize though, the Admin decided to remove the Get to Work-portion in the official fix now.

Anyhow, it should work either way. If you made that mistake too (applied Ultimate fix, and after that "Get to Work"), then re-apply the fix files, overwriting all of the old files when prompted. That's the only explanation I can give right now. For me, everything works just fine, and it should for you too. 

Note that if you have further problems, I may not be able to reply "in time" there (technically, I don't post on here very often nowadays, anymore). Please message one of the active Moderators (SeoY or Sim Architect) if you really can't get it working. And no, I don't know when a new fix is going to be released. But as said, a new fix isn't necessary - assuming you did all the steps correctly and also configured your anti-virus exclusions properly. Good luck !

You have two options, do as told above (Base, Work then Ultimate), or use the links in my video (Base, Ultimate Fix by Carlos Torrent, which was the one right before the current, and has everything, and is the same version, just larger as Carlos mentions above).

I wish you all get your game working!

Okay, so I deleted everything and started new with the two links in the video.  And I am pretty much back at the same place - cannot install two lots (one here if anyone feels like testing it for me http://simfileshare.net/download/22007/ because they say: "Cannot place content because it was created with a newer version of the game.  Restart your game to check for updates".

Thank you SA; and yes for the most part it is working.  I still cannot download new content, but am keeping in mind it is not yet updated to the latest patch; and I am now running into an issue where screenshots are not being saved in the Screenshots folder, but other than that it seems to be okay.

Thanks Carlos for the new Ultimate Fix (https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t21473-concerning-granite-falls-and-the-ultimate-fix).  Now patiently awaiting the newer one still bwahahah
