How can I stop my sims being unattracted to each other?
I spent 3 hours making 2 sims that are partners living together, but for some reason, they’re very unattracted to each other. I don’t have any turn-ons and turn-offs selected for them. I tried removing it through MC command center, but it didn’t work. What can I do to stop this? It’s messing up my gameplay.
sims can't get in their side of the bed
hello! happy new year:) i've had this issue since the last patch update on december 3rd (it randomly happened like 2-5 days after i can't remember) where my sims can't get in their side of the double bed... :') i've updated all my mods and removed every mod that may had conflicts with the bed, like all the mods that added interactions with the bed. i've also tried the 50/50 method. i then thought the issue was me using cc bed so i switched to ea beds and used the business and hobbies double bed, still had the same issue... i've honestly tried everything and i don't really understand what causes this bug to happen! so the thing is, my sims are married and they have no issue sleeping together. the bed is placed in the middle of the room and i tried removing the stuff from the right side to see if anything was blocking the way, none of this was the problem. i've also tried putting the bed in an empty room, in the middle and still had the same issue :') so yeah, i've been putting my sims to sleep this way since then : the one sleeping on the ride side has to go to bed first so they have to climb in and move their way to the right side so the one whos sleeping on the left side can go to bed after ! 😭 iff anyone can help me find a solution i would be really happy and relieved !! thank you so much in advance x

Urn mentions wrong name?
My sims friend died in a fire he started on my lot and I wanted to ‘release his spirit to Netherworld’ However, after clicking the option to do so, he spawns on my lot and the urn still has the option to release him- but, when hovering over the option it mentions my sims name when before it didn’t mention a name at all? Is there any way to fix this? I’ve tried reloading the game already.How to Stop my Sims from Changing When They Go to School
This isn't a bug but it does annoy me. Every time my sims go to school or university, they will change into their Everyday Outfit Slot 1. This happens even if they are already wearing an everyday outfit just a different slot or they are wearing their hot or cold weather outfits. Is there anyway to stop them from changing? It always creates more laundry lol and I spend a lot of time on all their outfits just for them to put on their default one.
My library upload shows misleading info
Ok, so here's the deal. I built a starter shell using base game and Growing Together. I saved the house in my library and there's info that Cottage Living has been used as well. So I filtered the items to that specific dlc in hopes I could replace/remove whatever it is that's been used. But there is nothing, not a single thing, I checked a few times. Apart from a fireplace and a few outside items there is only basic stuff - windows, doors etc, so it's really not that hard to see what's been used, and none of those things seem to be from the Cottage Living. Is there any other way to check used items apart from the filters? Any other suggestions? It's quite annoying and it's not the first time it happend. No mods or cc.
Simology panel always glowing
In my Legacy save the Simology panel is always glowing. It is only in that single save. All others are normal and goes away when I have checked them. The issus with this save is that when I check the panel it goes away. But if I switch to another sim and then back again it is glowing again. I do play with mods but it happens even without mods. And as mentioned, only in this household. It is really making me question wether or not to continue with this legacy or not. I have tried clearing cache and repaired the game. I have the latest update (sep 18 2025) but it is still there. Any advice would be greatly appriciated!
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.
Hair, clothing, disappearing NO CC's
It has taken me days and much removing/reinstalling game to finally get EA app back on. I removed my Tray & Saves reinstalling my worlds but not my personal games. With my tray files I started fresh only adding items no more than a year old. The only mods I have BetterExceptions, Lot 51 Library Core, MCC,MCWoohoo, thepancake 1 MoreTraits CAS. So far all has been going well. However, BE has exceptions but not mod related it is game related with animation with various things the Sims do. I am also having issues with my child's hair keeps disappearing as well as certain clothing items. This was also happening without any mod so it is has nothing to do with mods. This has something to do with the game. I also see NPC without hair or just in their underwear so it is not just my sims. It is CC but it is the games CC not anything that has been added by mods or mod related. Before I started adding the mods I have added I played without mods only using the game cheats and was having my Sims do something like cook & then suddenly she was giving me a rations that she could not do it right in the middle of making the dish. I added BE in hopes of getting an idea what was going on but did not get an exception for all the things that were going on so added MCC/MCWoohoo and it gave exceptions but I really cannot understand that exception file at all. Then finally added MoreTraits still no issues with mods only the games things that were there before mods. Cheat codes for the game do not always work.restaurant plot won't open, others will
I've tried resetting cache, gone through the mods better exceptions has been telling me is the problem. And now I'm stuck. on the restaurant zone director and I haven't been able to get off of that. Its been on 10% and nothing else is working.. I really don't want to lose the restaurant I worked so hard top build. Exception Summary Exception Date: 2026-01-01 13:58:50 Game Version: 1.120.117.1030-1.200.000.685.Release Category ID: restaurant_zone_director.py:427 Recommended Action: No mods were listed in the exception but you do have mods installed. Close your game, try removing handfuls of mods from your Mods folder and retry what you did when you received the exception. If the exception does not occur then the problem is likely with that mod. Check the mod download for any recent updates. Possible Cause: restaurant_zone_director (Confidence: 10%) Reason: Exception raised while processing zone spin up sequence: 'NoneType' object is not iterable (TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable)
All Packs Aren't Downloaded
Hey everyone, I am becoming very frustrated. Today, I logged onto my game, and none of my extra content is registering as downloaded in-game, but all of it is saying it's downloaded in my EA Game Library. It had really affected one of my legacies, so I am trying not to panic, but have tried repairing the game as well, but to no avail. Has this happened to anyone else?he Sims 4 won’t load – stuck on blue screen / white world map after logout
Hello, After being logged out of my EA account, The Sims 4 no longer loads correctly. The game gets stuck on the blue loading screen with the green plumbob. Sometimes it returns to the “Select Family” screen, and in other cases the world map does not load at all and appears completely white. I have already tried the following without success: * Repairing the game * Uninstalling and reinstalling the game * Clearing cache (cache, cachestr, onlinethumbnailcache) * Resetting the user folder * Removing all Mods/CC * Running EA App and the game as administrator EA Support has confirmed there are no known ongoing issues and has reported this as a bug, but the problem remains on my end. Has anyone else experienced this, or found a solution? Thank you.
CAS facial features adjustment too slow with certain hairstyles
When some hairstyles are being used, the sensitivity when adjusting facial features becomes REALLY slow, I have to move my mouse almost all the way across my desk to get it to make any significant changes. I've tried both with and without mods/cc installed. These are some of the hairstyles I'm experiencing it with. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted TitleSims complaining about not reaching items/ objects in the way.
So I have recently purchased the Sims 4 enchanted by nature expansion pack. I immediately went to build mode and created a house with several other packs I own on my Xbox. Now everytime in live nod when I want my Sim to use any sink in the house, shower and even couch, the chair in living room and other items they complain about something in the way or that they can't reach it. I tired to delete the items or even place them somewhere else with more space, I even checked for small items that could cause the issue (there were none) but still they complained. I did use the cheat bb.moveobejcts to build the house and I never had any problems with that. Of course I'm aware that sometimes this can be the issue but as I turned it off and placed the items again and it didn't work as well. Now I'm out of ideas what could be the issue. Pleas help.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
