Von Haunt Estate ghosts in the family editor
Hi! Not long ago, I visited the Von Haunt Estate in Windenburg with my Sims and later discovered the ghosts, Mimsy and Bernard, in the family editor. So, are they playable now, and can I move them onto the lot? Is this how it's supposed to be, or is it a bug?
NAPs still active
So, I only have eco lifestyle for the CAS/BB items, and I've turned off all the functionality of gameplay because it's so irritating. And I still get townies getting mad at me having electronics and invading my sims home to destroy them. I can't get them to leave even after fighting them. It's really annoying me, because I like and use a lot of CAS/BB, but its enough I'd get rid of the **bleep** pack just to not get annoyed by the townies with that nonsense. Everything is checked off in game options in the main menu. Does this affect anyone else?
My sims child aged up weirdly and game crashed
Hiya! My sims child just aged up to teen but the problem is she grew into a “skinny freakish child” instead, which was really weird and I thought the game had just made her super super thin which happens quite a lot lol, then I went into CAS to tweak her appearance. The other people in the household weren’t able to click on and I could only do one sim. Which I thought was weird so I exited cas to go back and try again. However it took me to the loading screen of doom and well yeah basically aging up my kid crashed the game. Btw like a minute earlier I aged up my teen to a young adult. No issues occurred there everything went smoothly. After the most recent update there have been many issues like this one and bugs. For example the high school system is really bugged. My sims don’t get to go to prom; the pop up fro the pre party comes but never ends once I go and is also not an event and prom doesn’t exist now, which is really frustrating, same with graduation and making promposal signs or asking sims to prom etc.. I really hope this is sorted as I love the game so much, and this is really sad. Thank you :)
Can't load old household after update
Hi guys, I'm wondering if anyone else if running into this issue. I was playing offline just before the update with a family I've had for a long time. I updated all my mods, cleared the cache, and updated my game without my mods in there. Since trying to launch the game vanilla to make sure all is well, I can't seem to even load onto the family. I'm stuck on a loading screen, the music even plays, but the screen doesn't budge. I have to quit with task manager. However I did try again and go in through load game instead and I clicked on another family and it worked fine, loaded in and everything. I know this new update is to do with family trees as much as a bunch of other things, I'm wondering if it's effecting a few people with large families, generations, and just longer saves in general. I'm not sure.. just something I've noticed. I've tried to find other ways to load their household but nothing :( if anyone else is having this issue, let me know 😭! [CM edit - title edited for clarity]My sims 4 elders are not dying
ever since this new update, my elders have not died. For example I got the notification that one of my sims relatives died. Yet when I checked his profile he wasn’t a ghost. He could come hangout at the lot. I then cheat killed him. He died, but my sim could call him to come round and he did. He even stood next to his own urn. I have no idea what this is and why it’s happening in the end I had to force delete the sim to get rid of him as every time I loaded into my family the same phone notification would come that he died. I don’t know what’s going on. Also, my now elder sim has got -0 days left to live. And she’s still kicking about showing no signs of dying. I haven’t turned off aging or anything like that but this keeps happening and I don’t know why.
Can't Make My Sims Siblings
I downloaded my Sims from an older save file from the gallery. They were in different households, but when I temporarily put them in one household to fix their relationship to siblings, it just. Won't let me?? I tried just doing it in CAS, and I tried the MCCC mod to fix it, but neither would let me change their relationships to siblings at all. I even tried removing the MCCC mod to see if that was the issue, and nothing changed. I'm unsure if this is a new bug or if I'm just doing something wrong.
Cooking keeps canceling
After the latest update (Legacy & Royalty) my sims keep canceling what they are cooking. I do use a couple of mods but even without them I have the issue. When I try to get them to resume cooking the only option on the cuttingboard is to "Clean up"... Seems like only one dish is affected. Sim is maxed out in cooking skill but it does not help. No NAPs are active. I use MCCC, WW and UI Cheats extender. All are updated after L&R update.
Sims stop their actions and I lost the save
My game is really buggy. First of all, I've already removed all the mods and it's still buggy. What's going on? My sims stop their actions. They just hover. I try to save the game to restart and I can't, the game doesn't save or let me exit. I end up having to restart my PC. This happens mostly when I'm about to marry a sim, or after several actions done in a row. The game literally freezes, the sims do nothing, just stare at each other, and I can't save the game. I've lost a lot of saves in just a few days. This started happening since the last update.
Sims Survey Error
I asked EA support this question, and after they investigated it, I was told in their chat to ask in this specific forum instead even though it's not directly related to gameplay. I received the email "Take a survey to earn a $5 EA App coupon" and did the Sims 4 survey, but on the coupon code page, only a little rectangle showed up, and there was no code. Then on the last step of the survey, I clicked "Next" and got an error message. It was a very time-consuming survey, and I'm concerned my answers didn't go through at all? Did this happen to anyone else? I took screencaps of both errors and have attached them here.
