Collectables disappear
I am currently playing a legacy challenge around all collections and keep completed collections in a sticker storage box. All my collectables, from both the box and my sims inventory have disappeared. When I collect something new, it disappears as soon as I travel. Im in gen 7 so I hope I can get my progress back somehow.
No Longer having Randomized Everyday Outfits
When I first started playing my Sims would randomize everyday, sleepwear, swimwear, etc. But I noticed, and I do not know how long this has been happening, everyday wear is always the first slot (for all my Sims), and not randomizing anymore. Sleep, swim, cold, warm, etc. still seem to randomize, but not everyday. Is this a bug from a certain pack or update, or is anyone else getting this? I tried to search to see if this is a bug but I haven't had too much luck.
Can’t click on sim for options and other glitches
So I was playing last night and everything was working fine. Come on to play this afternoon and my save wasn’t working properly. My sim couldn’t walk through the front door (there was no obstructions), and I couldn’t bring up the menu when I click on the sim. I also can’t choose the work style for my sim while she’s at work (like to choose normal, work hard etc). I tried closing the game and loading it back up and all the usual tricks. Didn’t work. So I decided to start a new save game and cheat my sim back to the skill levels she had etc. but I am now having the same glitches as before. Can’t click on the sim, can’t click on her portrait whilst she’s at work to change work style and none of my doors are working even though there are no obstructions 🤦🏻♀️ has there been an update that I didn’t notice over night that’s made it glitch out? Or what? Because I’m so annoyed, I lost so much progress with my other save file not working. I played for a good few hours yesterday and it was all wasted 😭
Flower Visual effect on sims head
This started after I brought my 2 sims back from a getaway so I don't know if that has something to do with it but they have this weird animated effect over their head, almost like how kids get when they're imagining something. I tried clicking on them to see if there was a way to disable it like there is with the fame shine from get famous but couldn't find any setting. I think its really annoying so was wondering if anyone know what's causing it or how to disable it? It only happens when I'm clicked on the sim.Game Crashing when returning from High School
Hi there, I loaded the game this morning on my PC and one of my sims was at high school and I decided to go there. When trying to return to their home lot, the game kept crashing on the load screen. I exited and repaired the game, tried again and no luck. I tried re-entering the game just instead of "resuming", I loaded the game and chose another sim from the same family to start with and the game crashed on the load screen again. Do not have any mods or CC installed, recently purchased the new expansion pack and had little problems since then but not like this. Would love some help if possible!

I bought a vet clinic. I have 3 employees. Im using the one already in the game. I've visited with my sick pet before i bought the clinic. When i open the business, people show up with their sick pets. The vets i hired WILL NOT treat the animals. When i select the pet, there is no option to treat. When i select the owner, there is no option to treat. I tried the podium. I've tried the equipment. Nothing is working. When i open, there's just a bunch of sick animals throwing up but no one is doing anything. Please Help!!
Negatives of UI elements appear when changing screens
I recently got a new laptop and just opened up the sims for the first time, and found that when different menus would go away the negative would remain on the screen for a second before going away, almost like it was lagging. I have no mods, and I tried changing every single graphics setting in the game, and it wasn't changed. Below is a picture of what it looks like, but it would happen on various menus, such as the age/voice/gender menu, or when you choose an occult. Please help!

My problems started after updating on 19th Oct 25. When in CAS, clicking and dragging to rotate the sim or to manipulate / resize a body part will cause the game to go into an unrecoverable freeze. I have tested across multiple devices (AM3+ -based gaming PC, Intel ivy bridge-based macbook pro, AM5-based thinkpad) with the same symptoms. After freezing, the game has to be manually killed. The game reports itself as version 1.118.257.1020 DX11 I have tried: repairing the game removing all mods deleting the cache completely removing and reinstalling the game I have the pre-order limited edition and the following packs: For rent Vintage glamour stuff vampires toddler stuff tiny living strangerville spa day seasons realm of magic lovestruck perfect patio stuff parenthood outdoor retreat nifty knitting stuff laundry day stuff kids room stuff holiday celebration pack growing together get together get to work get famous eco lifestyle discover university dine out cottage living cool kitchen stuff city living cats & dogs bust the dust kit basement treasures kit life of the partyCat disappeared after going to the vet
Hello! I had to take my cat to the vet (literally about 2 weeks ago (in game obvi) and when i went home with my cat she just wouldn’t show up in my house! The icon is the same as it should be when the cat is at home and the “call over” command doesn’t bring it home. I tried the “simstagram pets” to see her location but she seems to be located somewhere my sims can’t even go. The only thing keeping her alive is me using the alter needs cheat so she won’t starve so i just use that anytime she’s uncomfortable or anytime i get a notification saying she’s hungry😭 i have tried just about everything now! When i click her symbol the camera just end up right outside the apartmentRavenwood Graveyard NPCs wearing Paint Stained Clothes, and other Issues
This is the first time I have been to Ravenwood since I bought a bunch of packs including AA. Suddenly I noticed a bunch of NPCs are dressing in this (see below images) at the Graveyard in Ravenwood (not all but 2-4 ish each visit). I also lost Waylon Warez (I think he disappeared after becoming an NPC for a Custom Venue Role), I stalked his usually places for days, leaving and returning multiple times. I also can't find him at the Custom Venue where I saw him before. I also cannot deliver a Gnome to Grim. I tried removing my mods but I think it got stuck in this glitched save. Anyone else get these issues, before or recently? If this is just normal occasional glitches I guess I can start a new game, if not, I guess I can set up a bug report for each if they happen in the next save.
Toddlers Milestones ...
Sul Sul! So the milestones for Toddlers are still not showing up for Movements and a few other and I have been successfully able to use a mod by TwistedMexi to make the achievement appear, but now I am encountering an issue: This particular household has twins and I think perhaps the cheat code doesn't work because it doesn't know which child to give the achievement to? (though I would have assumed it would have done both, but it is not the case ...) Anybody knows how I can give the achivements to each of my twins at a time (since the second twin hasn't yet reached the max in movement skill, so I want the milestone to show only for the one that has) please?

I lost all of my households and lots
I was playing the game this morning (10/19/2025) just past midnight CDT in the states. The game crashed and gave me a 3 digit error code that I can't recall. Before it crashed it would not let me enter the household I was trying to play. After the game crash I relaunched it and all of my households were gone. After restarting my PC all of my mods, households, and lots were erased. How can I restore them, because I spent 30+ hours on it. Please advise, thanks in advance! <3
