Ice texture appearing over garden plots.
Has anyone experienced this in game & knows possibly how to fix it? I've done the normal trouble shooting of removing all CC/MODS & slowly going through my mods folder to find the issue. Even with Mods/CC removed & a new save is started this bug happens. You cannot delete the ice texture and a weird floating happens. This is in moonwood mill happens over the public garden area of the map. As far as I know this only happens in moonwood mill The current season is summer so I have no idea why this ice texture is appearing.
plz help
Hello. My account was suspended without any reason, and there is no information about the reason for the ban. I contacted technical support more than once and received no response. All I asked for was that my account be linked to a Steam account. I want to link the account to another site and delete the Steam link. I buy games on Steam that I can't play, and I don't hear back from support
How to store power Off-The-Grid ?
Hello, I've been searching how to store power with the Off-the-grid Lot Challenge. I'm currently playing in the Henford-on-Bagley neighborhood, but i also have the Eco Lifestyle pack. I have wind turbines and solar panels, as well as appliances that work Off-the-grid, but once night falls - i almost always lose the power i got during that day! Is there a way to resolve this issue? I tried researching with Copilot - they mention a Power Storage but i cannot find this object no matter where i look.... Help please! Thank you :) Vicky
[B&H] Paying Household Members as Employees?
Hi, I just got the Businesses & Hobbies expansion for Christmas and I have a question more out of curiosity than anything else. I noticed my Sim can hire her husband, whom she obviously lives with, as an employee at her small business. She has to pay him a salary but since they live together and share household funds, does that mean the money doesn't actually go anywhere? Did my Sim find a free labour loophole or does the game actually deduct the money from the household funds anyway and just make it go poof instead of going to her husband?
Watch TV on Treadmill
I swear that my sims used to be able to watch tv while on the treadmill, but now I noticed that the sim will get off the treadmill when I turn the tv on. I can't actually remember if they were able to watch tv while exercising, is that a thing or would this be considered a bug?
Can load into game and choose a word but can't load households
I was playing sims and got kicked off the game so I just simply reloaded it however now it will load into a game and I can choose a world to play in but when I select a family and it shows the loading screen then error 124:57d8944b:45f4f002 and to reload the game, I have tried this multiple times including restarting my Mac and nothings changed. I tried to place a household out the gallery and play that instead but it just did the same thing. I also did the repair button on EA before loading but again no change. How can I fix this?Can't load into my household
Every time I enter the game I go to my already played households but every time I get to the manage world I click the household I want to play but it just sends me to the choose a map screen.This has happened to me before in the past and it only started working again when they updated the game but then at the beginning of this month my game started doing it again and I haven't been able to play for a whole monthSims 4 Not Playing
Today, I have had the reoccuring issue of my sims 4 when i hit play, taking me to the world map and making me choose my family, but when i hit play there it acts like its loading but takes me right back to the map, ive tried other houses and it did the same thing, i had even created a new save and it did it. Its been about 3 hours now of this and I honestly dont know what to do. Ive "repaired" and deleted and reinstalled the game, ive also turned off my computer and put it back on multiple times. Its given me an error code saying the game failed to load and its reccomending me to relaunch which i have, MULTIPLE TIMES. i did go to build mode to see if that worked and if i could see my charaters, the buildmode part worked but i did not infact see any of my charaters, i honestly would really like a fast response i did spend money on packs.
Can't place apartment room
This is a new save, no mods that affect building, no cc furniture, and I tried with both bb.moveobjects/bb.enablefreebuild on an off. There is no household moved in and I've bulldozed it, tried leaving the world, closing and opening the game, repairing the game, deleting the local thumbcache, and making a new save to see if the original is corrupted as well as tried multiple different rooms to see if just that one is bugged and none of these fixed it. For some reason when trying to place a room on 19 Culpepper specifically, it won't allow me to place it at all unless it's like 2 boxes off center towards the balcony even with objects clipping and floating outside the actual lot regardless of cheats on. I have no clue how to fix this or if that apartment is just bugged right now. Any advice?
Take care of crows in 'life and death'
🦇I just got the life and death expansion pack. The crows I interact with show that they are hungry but there is no option for a feeding interaction. I can talk to them and train them and even clean their perch but they are always starving. Is there something I'm missing?My Sim Can't Reap The Sim That Is Supposed To Be Dead - Reaper Career
My Sim is in the Reaper career, but every time I load this particular plot, I can't reap the Sim. I've received this assignment on this plot twice now, and each time it doesn't work. However, on different plots, I've been able to reap dead Sims, even when they aren't actually dead, which is another issue altogether. I've tried adding the Sim to my family to see if I can cheat and make them dead, but that doesn't work and removes the designation of being a dead Sim. I've also attempted various cheats through the cheat bar, but none have been successful. This is my legacy save, and I've been playing it for a considerable amount of time. I don't use any mods, so I don't have MCC installed to resolve the issue more easily. This bug forces me to end the day early because I can't progress until I successfully reap the Sim. Please help!
Missing link in family tree
I have a problem with two Sims. They are related (mother and daugther) but they do not appear on each other family tree. All the other relationships, including the one between the mom and her son, are shown on my Sims family trees, so, I do not understand why this specific link is missing. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Note that I am playing with some CCs, and the MCCC but I doubt this is the cause of my issue.
