Chickens never show up inside the coop
I found from other gameplay reviews that when it's 5 AM, Rooster will show up for a wake-up call. But in my game, it never appears. Only has a sound. Moreover, hens never come to sit and lay eggs in the place I drew red circles. They still show up walking outside the coop. My problem is that they don't show up relaxing in the coop. I don't know if it's only in the game or it's a current visual glitch. If there is a way to fix it, please let me know how to do it. Thank you so much!
Sim can't give food to infant on high chair
Whenever I tell my sim to help her infant explore foods or give him finger foods, her path is blocked, even though there's nothing in the way. I've tried moving the high chair, but it still doesn't work, and it worked in the same position yesterday. Has anyone else experienced this glitch?
Infant/Toddler has no sound
My main sim family has a toddler who makes zero noises. They make the motions of talking/babbling, but there is no sound. This also happened when they were infants. I have checked other households, and all the other infants/toddlers have sound, just not her. Even in CAS, there is no sound, unless I age her up and then back down, but the moment I reenter the game, she loses all sound again.My Sims doesn't go to work or school automatically
Sorry if I make some mistakes, don't know English very well. So, the problem is that I have the extension mods go to work and high school, and they were working very well, I got to follow my Sims to work and school a lot of times, then suddenly, one day, even the sims that don't work with a job of the extension pack (astronomy), they just don't go to work alone, I have to click on the option so they can go to work, and with that the option to follow your Sims doesn't show up, even the notification of 1 hour left to work doesn't show up. The problem is not that they can't go, they can because I still have the option to get them to work, the thing is that they don't go automatically and I can't follow them because to follow them you have to click on the message that pops up automatically when they are about to go. I have the option to follow them turned on and I already updated my mods that needed an update, that's with the teenage ones and the adults, both of them. Any help? I really want to follow them to school, that's the hole point of the extension.Problem with an owned little buisiness
For different reasons I have not played my game for a few weeks, In Willow Creek I had a family that owned a museum as a little buisiness. When I opened my game recently the icon signaling a little buisiness was not over the museum but when hovering my mouse over the building the family that were supposed to owned it appeared. When I went to the family lot however they did not own any buisiness. I could not change the museum lot because the game considers it is owned by the family. There is nothing I can do with the lot. Can someone help?
[EbN] What specifically causes this aura?
It isn't luck (she had ordinary), and luck/bad luck is usually a green or grey/purple clover. Unless it is the ordinary luck aura? If it is balance (or balance increased) she was Very Imbalanced -> Imbalanced using the "Consult the Cosmos" interaction. I keep thinking their hygiene is low/bad. They couldn't come up with a different distinctive aura X /Debug items not appearing or disappearing
Ever since an update a few months ago, All my debug items are not showing up or are now disappearing. I've tried repairing my game twice, Clearing my cach files, removing mods then playing without mods, and starting a new save. I really like some of the debug items and would like to use them again
event items not added to account
I have finished the Nature's Calling event and claimed all the rewards but it appears as though some of them have not been correctly added to my account. For example, I am missing the Touch Grass Weekly #3 even though I have #1, #2 and #4. I also appear to be missing the recipe for the Wooden Throne even though I was able to make it originally to complete the quest. I have checked in build/buy mode and filtered by 'event' items but the missing items are not there. I noticed this when I loaded up my household and it told me an item needed to be removed as it wasn't on my account - this turned out to be the Touch Grass Weekly #3 which I had placed down before. So something appears to have gone wrong between the play session when I finished the event and now. I have tried repairing my game but it doesn't help. I don't use mods or have any custom content.
One of my Sims lost his job for no reason
I'm a rotational player and have this one Sim who's in the criminal career, Boss branch. Last time I played him, he was totally fine, had just added a cellar/dungeon to his house, was enjoying himself with his Misfits club, was doing great in his career. Yesterday, I checked back in with him again and noticed he no longer had a job. I have no idea how that might have happened. I know he didn't quit, and I stick with every household for a whole Sim week. Even if I have to switch mid-week, the Sims concerned never lost their jobs. He also didn't get a notice from his employer, so I'm pretty sure he wasn't fired, either. He was able to choose the criminal career again and entered it at the Boss branch, too, so he doesn't have to start from scratch and lost maybe one tier. No idea why the game allowed that because he never went to college and doesn't have a degree that enables him to enter at a higher career level. Any ideas what could have caused this or has this happened to anybody else? My best guess is that it's a bug courtesy of one of the latest updates, like the bug that prevents promotion when a Sim has the entrepreneurial trait.High school years glitch
I've discovered that after some update, when i have two teenagers in a household, i could go to school with only one. The other one would have a day off and the one that could go to school, it does not show an option to follow them. I removed all of my mods and started a new game but the issue is still there. I'm doing a legacy game sooo this has really started to bum me out. When i started a new game the first day i was able to get both of them to school and follow them, but at the end of the day one would get stuck at school and couldn't return home, the same one also did not have the schoolday requirements/to-do list or whatever you would call it.Horse Ranch Competitions
I keep trying to enter horse competitions through the community board. It will take my money an show the the competition in the que but then it cancels itself. My sim never goes to the competition. I have updated and repaired the game. I added a ranch community board to my lot. Nothing is working. Is anyone else having the same issue?
Cannot create small business (residential)
Hi, I want to have my sim live on the same lot as their cafe and the game won't seem to let me. I've tried starting from both a residential and small business lot, no dice. The game says the lot isn't valid when I try adding the venue from the "register small business" pop up and from moving my sim in manage worlds. After an hour of fussing (including moving my sim and selling the business) I was able to get it titled "small business (residential)" but I was still unable to open the store. Can someone help me fix this bug? I'd like to play with the pack I just bought ://
Camera only has “Put in inventory” option when set up on a tripod
I have taken all my mods out and tried repairing my game. This has been an ongoing bug for me even before I started playing with mods. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve searched around on this site and Reddit and can’t seem to find a post of someone experiencing the same issue. I’d really appreciate any input on this. Thank you so much.
Nonstop "Show Off Tattoos"
I recently purchased the Businesses and Hobbies EP, which comes with the new "show off tattoos" and "check out tattoos" interaction. Immediately after installing it my sims are constantly doing these. I mean, every single autonomous conversation is just "show off tattoos" over and over again. And when sims are alone, they go to the nearest mirror "check out tattoos" repeatedly. Even if a sim has 0 tattoos, they still will show it off/check it out exactly the same. It has become quite frustrating. A sim in my game will experience a death in the family and still have a confident mood from those interactions. again, even with 0 tattoos!Infant and Child Sims broken
basically the other day i realised that townies that were children had they head floating above them, which was very creepy. It wasnt every child i saw but majority of them looked like this (the first photo). now my sim has just had twin girls and ive aged them up into infant, the glitch has happened to them but even worse looking (photo 2). Ive been into CAS and removed everything that these sims are wearing to see if its a item but everything still stays the same... I DO have CC and MODS in my game however everything is extremely up to date as everything in my game is only things I have downloaded in the past 2 weeks. Also i have CC disabled for random sims, therefore the children townies that look like this should not be affected by CC. I do also have every pack so i am thinking maybe its a bug related to the new pack?? Any help would be much appreciated as i cant play with my infant until this is fixed
