Cannot Make Lucky Liquid on Apothecary Table
I have two sims that have level 10 Apothecary skill, they have full needs (aside from 1 or needs with a sliver down), great moods and environment, and possess all of the required ingredients. They have made all other items that you can possibly make on the Apothecary table successfully. However, neither of them can make the 'Lucky Liquid' item... it remains greyed out. What I have tried/additional facts to add... I also had her buy more of the purchasable ingredients I had one sim re-make her scared potions... two different times I had her sister make her own scared emotions to try herself I tried dragging the potions in then out of the household inventory, the table, a storage box, and the ground I tried saving to the library and placing back into the game none of the ingredients are debug all ingredients have been harvested from their garden, purchased through the table or made by my sims have tried on two different tables I ran game repair None of these tests stopped the Lucky Liquid item from being greyed out on the Apothecary table. I have all packs, no mods/cc, play on Mac, and am fully updated.Solved79Views2likes5Comments
Sims Not Aging In New Saves
The title is a bit self explanatory - In any new save I make my sims simply do not age. The bar doesn't increase, hovering over the bar does not show how many days they have till aging, and so they simply do not get any older. This applies to anyone of any age group and seems to apply to the NPCs in my world as well. The only way my sims can die if if they are killed by something and the only way I can age them is through cheats. However, in any of my older saves (about a month or so ago) my sims do age and the aging is still working. If I played in those saves, everything would be working exactly how it should - mods and all. Yes, I do use mods. The mods I can see being most problematic are MCCC, XMLInjector, or CCs. However, I spent the bulk of yesterday resolving any errors reported by MCCC, adjusting the age settings to default, and even factory resetting my game. It did not resolve the issue of aging in new saves. I believe it may be a game issue since I did, I think, all I could to fix my mods if they were the issue. I'm at a complete loss. I also have the Cats & Dogs, Get To Work, Cottage Living, Horse Ranch, Highschool Years, Discover University, Vampires, Seasons, and Werewolves packs incase that may cause issues such as this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!Solved39Views0likes7Comments
No option to go jogging
The Nature's Calling event has a quest that says "go for a jog." My sim has no option to go jogging. I tried at home. I tried on other lots. I tried a treadmill. I tried a different sim. I restarted the game. I restarted my computer. I do not use any mods. I cannot complete this quest and move on with the event.Solved20Views0likes2Comments[EBN] Enchanted gnome lead to constant objects breaking
I know a possible side effect of enchanting a gnome is that sometimes bad gnomes will cause chaos but this seems bugged. I enchanted a gnome to help with gardening. very soon after all my appliances broke (all sinks, fridge, TV, stove, showers, baths, etc.) i sold the gnome i enchanted but the appliances break every morning around 8am or so. i went to manage worlds, didn't fix it. i reloaded the game, didn't fix it. I replaced to lot, didn't fix it. I MOVED my family to a completely different lot and its still happening!!!SolvedJaycoh2 days agoRising Rookie30Views0likes3Comments
[EBN] Fairy sleep/hygiene going down slowly
Have no idea if this is intended or not, my fairy is almost completely leveled up, just below the radiance level and I’ve noticed over the last day or so of playing her hygiene and sleep barely go down, like it’s over 3 quarters full after a full day of playing. She has high natural living level, but I haven’t bought any reward traits or anything. Is this a result of some fairy gameplay I don’t know about? It’s really making it too easy when you consider how everything else is extremely op when it comes to fairies. Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted TitleSolved39Views0likes3Comments
I can't drag dirty dishes to trash, dumpsters, sinks, inventory, or fridges.
I am still unable to drag trash or dirty dishes to my sims inventory, to trash cans, dumpsters, or fridges even though this was said to have been fixed. When I tell my sim to clean up, they pick it up and then immediately drop it into a rubbish pile. They then will not even clean that up. I do not and have never used Mods or CC. My game is up to date at version 1.116.223.1030 DX11. I am trying to do a rags to riches but am unable to with this bug. I do have the new Enchanted by Nature that I installed two days ago and that was when the issue started.Solvedpantherchic3 days agoSeasoned Novice50Views0likes5Comments
Can't USE wooden throne
Hey all, Just playing through this weeks Nature's Calling event. I've crafted the wooden throne and placed it on the lot. Now it's asking me to USE to outhouse (wooden throne), but when I click Pee Like a Champion... my sim just stands there. I tried making another with the same results... anyone else having this issue? PS: Can't woohoo in there either. Seems like the wooden throne isn't working, at least in my game. Again, I can craft it... just not use it. They just stand there outside, frozen.Solved303Views0likes5Comments

Laundry Piles Appear Almost Every Time A Sim Changes Outfits (Hamper not full)
When there is a hamper on a lot from Laundry Day, practically every time a sim changes outfits, including into work outfits, a clothing pile appears on the ground by them, even though the hamper is not full. The laundry machines seem to be working normally. Is this happening for anyone else?

Innisgreen roof shapes
As a long-time player, I never imagined I would run into problems with building roofs, but here I am. I cannot for the life of me recreated the shape of the roofs in Innisgreen. Looked at how Lilsimsie does it, but she just grabs a roof piece and it looks like this without here doing anything extra. When I go to the prebuilt houses in the new world, they have three "balls" on the roof to adjust pitches with, I only have two. Feels like I'm missing something obvious, but what?

"Testingcheats" is activated, but has no effect. I noticed this today when I tried to reset my sim and pet which got stuck between walls. It doesn't work anymore, at least not in my game. I had to go into build mode and delete the wall to free my sim and pet. Same with plants, when you shift-clicked on them before the patch, there was an option to change the gardening state, not anymore. I know there were changes done to the plants because of the new pack, but I heard nothing about not being able to shift-click to reset anything amore. It just doesn't work - Tested without mods to make sure before posting here. All was fine before the patch.SolvedLuvMySimz6 days agoSeasoned Ace53Views0likes8Comments
