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 fixedLights not working
While in build mode, I was creating a house and all of a sudden some of the lights in the house stopped working. I've replaced the lights, changed them to different lights, and even got rid of the windows, but the lights just wont work, neither do they work in live mode. I closed and reopened the app, restarted my computer, but neither worked. Has anyone else had this problem?
Nature's calling event won't trigger
Hello, I am on an asus gaming PC, playing with the most recent update. I have started multiple different saves, I've repaired the game, I've tried it without my mods folder, I turned off mods in-game and reloaded, and I've turned on and off the online social events/the gallery. Nothing I do will trigger the event, and all I have is the woodworking table. Has anyone else experienced this?Skintones are nonexistent
Hi, I am going a little bit crazy here. I repaired my game twice, removed cache, removed Origin's cache, yet I still do not have the skintones section in my game. It completely vanished. I have no idea what to do. I checked for main mods and updated those. Please help! Thanks so much in advance. I just want to play my game lol :(.
Anyone else having issues with their restaurants?
I have been having tons of issues with my restaurants. I have some sims that are able to order and receive their meals no problem, then others will never have their order taken, even when using the MC control cheat to manually have their order taken. I’ve tried rearranging the tables in multiple positions, far apart from each other, and any configuration imaginable. I’ve made my restaurant larger, moved doorways to make pathways to tables more accessible, still having issues with some (not all) tables being able to receive their orders. Any tips? I do have CC but I’ve repaired the game, updated necessary CC. Running out of ideas and this community is always so helpful. Thanks in advance!
Sims 4 Duplicate world and Lots infinite loading
Just bought Enchanted by Nature and loaded it up after making sure most of my mods were up to date. Loaded in just fine, left my current family and looked at the new map, everything still fine. Went to Chestnut Ridge and tried entering the Canter lot 30x30. Infinite loading screen. Reloaded, tried again, infinite load. Tried the larger lot, heard the music queue that loads into a lot, continued to infinite load. Tried a repair, still didn't work, did a 50/50, still didn't work. tried with empty Mod folder, still won't work. Repaired again, none of the lower lots are working. I could load into the upper worlds lots just fine. I then noticed I had 2 of the new world on my world menu screen. Currently unsure if I want to save at this point due to a potential corruption to my save files. Loaded an older save, tried to load into the Chestnut Ridge lower lots, still hear the music that loads into the lot but continue to stay on loading screen.
Sims circling at lot boundary and not leaving.
I'm having an issue where my child sims just walk in a tight circle at the lot boundary for ages when they leave for school at 8am. I have four child sims and they all do it. They do eventually leave but not for at least an in game hour or more. Their icons clearly show them to already be at school but they're not. Is this a bug? Or an intentional queuing to leave the lot thing? Edited to add: I put this query in the console technical issues forum and it got moved to gameplay questions and issues?? Don't know why....Commanding dog to lie down freezes game
