Hats
So I’m a long time novice simmer, currently playing sims 4 on Xbox 1. I’m having a slight problem where all hats for the military career, possibly all careers, have disappeared. Just no hats on my sims or any natural sims. Everytime my sim puts on its work clothes to go to work in the military career no hat. I’ve reinstalled game and all add ons, deleted local saved data, deleted saves, made new sims. Everything. I realize I can just cheat to fix this, but really trying to do a true playthrough no cheats just hard work. Any more suggestions?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?my sim comes home from work earlyer
My Sim comes home from work early and doesn't work until 4 PM. When I leave with the other Sim at 11 o'clock in the morning, the other Sim comes home from work. I've removed all the mods and repaired the game, but that doesn't help. I only have the base game, so I think it's a game issue. Can anyone help me please?
[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 /
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 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!
