Mod conflicts or bugs can be obvious, but other times they can be fairly subtle and mistaken for normal in-game glitches. However, if mods are causing an issue in your game, you might encounter issues such as: Sims not completing actions.
They might "jump", stop the action midway through, or do the action for hours without completing it. Sims freezing or getting stuck in a "T-pose", where their arms are sticking out. Odd behavior in general - objects might not work properly, you have empty options when clicking on things, or other abnormalities. Your game running unusually slow, when this wasn't a problem before.
Your game crashing or refusing to start, and clearing your caches doesn't fix it. Flashing blue squares in place of family portraits or buffs. Don't save your game in this state - it will corrupt your save! Open your Mods folder and move about half the files somewhere else onto your computer. Start your game, load a saved game, and see if the problem goes away. If the problem persists, close your game and remove half of your files again. Repeat the process until you stop experiencing problems.
Once you've stopped experiencing the problem, begin adding in your mods one at a time and then loading your save again. Eventually, after adding one of the mods, you will start experiencing the bug again. This means that the mod you added back is what's causing your problem. Quit your game and remove the mod you just added back.
Check that you have all the necessary mod packs. Some game mods require expansion packs, game packs, or stuff packs in order to work properly - otherwise, they won't work right or will cause problems.
If you've accidentally put a mod in your game that needs a pack you don't have, you'll start getting errors or glitchy behavior, and you'll either need to remove it or get the pack.
Sites like Mod The Sims will list any required packs on the download page, and modders using independent sites will typically list any required packs as well. This icon is used on wikiHow as fair use because it is being used to provide how-to instructions. Install Sims2Packs with Package Installer.

Once you've added custom content to your game, you'll get a box warning you that you have third-party content in your game. Click on "Enable custom content" near the bottom of the dialogue box, and then click OK. Once you've done that, restart your game. Check if the content is showing up.
If you see the new content with a star in the corner of the thumbnail, your content is working! In Buy and Build Mode, things are sorted by price, so you might need to search to see if the content is showing up.
If only some content is showing up, you're probably missing something, like a mesh or a required expansion or stuff pack. Files themselves can sometimes not work, but this is uncommon. Default replacements won't have the custom content star, but will show up in place of the original game content.
Method 2. Check a mod's description for incompatibilities or required expansions. Because mods alter game code, they can require certain expansion packs to run properly, or have different versions per expansion.
If two separate mods change the same code, they can also cause problems when used together. Read the mod description thoroughly to see if the mod requires any expansions or is known to be incompatible with other popular mods.

Some mods require you to change the game's install files.
You'll need to open the drive that you installed your game on, open Program Files, and then find your game directory to adjust it.
Your game directory and what files you modify will depend on your OS, your version of the game and the mod you're installing. The instructions will tell you where the specific mod needs to go. Once you've added hacks to your game, you'll get a box warning you that you have third-party content in your game. Check to see if the hack is working. Some hacks make changes that aren't visible unless you look at the code. However, many hacks alter a fundamental part of the game, like enabling teen pregnancy or showing previously-hidden interactions.
Test out a function related to the hack; if the Sim is able to complete the action and nothing goes wrong, it's working! If your Sims "jump" or don't complete actions, there's glitchy behavior that wasn't previously present, or the game crashes, the hack isn't working.
