[IL] [AA] Diving skill cheat doesn't work at Sulani
Context ; XBOX - Version 2.21.4.2310 Hi, The latest Adventure Awaits pack brings four new skills (that can be modified using cheats) : Diving, Entomology, Skill_archery and major_papercraft. When you're located at Sulani [IL], the cheat code for Diving doesn't work, while it works fine at other places. Typing "stats.set_skill_level diving 5" does ... NOTHING ! Note that, I discover this bug using a sirena, but it also happen whatever the type of your Sim is. Others new skills coming from Adventure Awaits works : "stats.set_skill_level Entomology 5", stats.set_skill_level Skill_archery 5" and "stats.set_skill_level Major_papercraft 10" works. This issue also, doesn't comes from the Sims themself. I moved my sirenas to Point Gibi, where they exercise to get some skill points at diving. No problem, they got the "Diving" skill. If I try to upgrade the level using the cheat code, also no problem, it works fine here. It also works at others places like Willow Creek. So, this bug is really specific to the skill "diving" at a particular place "Sulani". Note also, that once my Sims get the first skill level at Point Gibi, if they return to Sulani, it's impossible to update it using the cheat code. I didn't try to install a diving board at a swimpool at Sulani, but I'm quite sure we also cannot get a skill using this method here.

Clumsy
Since the second-to-last patch, my Sim and many other Sims are all demonstrating the Clumsy behavior, that is, frequent stumbling and tripping. I was given the advice to repair my game, and that seemed to help for a day, but then the behavior returned, and subsequent repair had no effect. I had hoped the latest patch might address it, but no. No cc, no mods.SolvedDFF73 days agoRising Scout26Views0likes1Comment

I recently purchased the Crystal Creations pack, as well as seasons, but have noticed in my Collections in my inventory that the Crystal Creations bonus items are not registering on the main menu (showing as the bonus items circle), but do show within the collection greyed out as usual. However, I managed to collect Amber which appears in my inventory, but it has not registered in my collection as being collected. I have attached some screenshots. I have tried repairing the game and packs through the EA app, but this doesn't seem to have fixed anything. I'm a bit gutted as I've recently got into completing the collections, and would hate for these to not register or count towards them. I do play with CC but not Mods, my game is up to date. As mentioned at the beginning, at the same time I purchased Seasons and the bonus items for that pack have registered within my collections no problem. I'd hate to lose all my progress and saves, please helppp!Solved37Views0likes3CommentsHousehold Relationships
So I'm currently in Create a Sim and I was looking through the household relationships and suddenly I don't have the ability to make a spouse, a partner, or a fiance. I noticed it after the most recent update that was released on Console on 9/23/25 with my current date being 9/29/25 , as I play on PlayStation 5. I'm not sure what happened specifically as I have no mods if you wish I can provide which packs I have installed at the moment, I certainly don't know why it has happened but it's an odd thing that's occurring because I just noticed that tonight thank you in advance. I have provided a screenshot as to what I'm referring to.SolvedThat1badgamer7 days agoSeasoned Newcomer24Views0likes1Commentsims friends forever event quests and discovery quests not showing up
The tasks for completing the friends forever quests, and discovery quest in general are not showing up for me. This bug happens to me on and off, but usually its because I needed to update a mod and then it was fixed. For some reason, this is not the case for me this time around? I have tried everything from running a mod conflict scanner through my game, taking my entire mods folder out, and taking out certain mods or CC files specifically one by one and nothing has fixed this bug I have. I have also tried deleting my local thumb cache and sim texture files but still nothing. I don't really care about the discover quests, but I do want to complete the friends forever event. However, I don't know how to when the quests won't show up, even with my entire mods folder taken out. Are there any workarounds to this? Better exceptions tells me there are no conflict mod or CC files anyways and I don't use that many, so I don't know what's going on right now with my game.Solved99Views0likes2CommentsBirthdays and “Days till Aging” Missing – Sims Can’t Die of Old Age
In the in-game calendar, Sims birthdays are no longer displayed. Normally, the simology panel shows “Days till aging” (for example: 5 days), but this information is missing. Sims are still able to age up by blowing out candles on a cake, but because the aging countdown does not appear, older Sims cannot die from old age naturally.SolvedSammetje_0078 days agoSeasoned Novice74Views0likes8Comments
Sims not eating
I recently encountered this bug last week, and when I opened my game again today, the problem was not resolved. This could be due to all the recent updates, but I haven't seen anyone else mention it. When I click on a food dish, the action is queued up, but the Sim freezes and resets as if they were reset by cheats. It's as if the game receives the order but cannot carry it out. I only have visual mods (loading screen and cas background), nothing that would affect gameplay. Please help, my Sims are starving!SolvedSophieSims279 days agoSeasoned Newcomer59Views0likes5Comments
I can't Praise for Foraged Food.
I can't perform the "Praise for Foraged Food" working from home in the Lifestyle Coach career. The "Naturopathy Career" is not in the pie menu for the Sim in question. This is why I can't "Praise for Foraged Food." Of course, I also checked with mods disabled. Translated by GoogleSolvedchuratan10 days agoSeasoned Traveler26Views0likes3Comments
Sims stuck at the vet and can't leave due to spaying in process
I went to go spay my sim's cat at the vet and after signing in the cat got on the examine table and the vet just stared at her. I reset both cat and vet and stupidly saved my game. Now every time I load in the same thing happens. They just get softlocked inplace for hours. I can't leave the lot cause it says there is a scial event happening. I don't know what to do. I don't know how to cancel the spaying. I can't go into manage worlds either as it's grayed out due to the social even or something.

[FFQE] How can I finish 'Draw a Plan' task?
Hi, Simmers. Has anyone finished the 'Draw a Plan' task? I'm stuck on the 'Draw a Plan' task. The instructions say 'Older Sims can complete this goal by using an Easel.' However, even after finishing the drawing, the task doesn't complete. I only have toddlers in my household, so I'm stuck. Is there a way to complete it? I'm glad to know the way.

Sim becomes extremely muscular without exercise
Hey. My Sim is constantly getting extremely muscular, eventhough she had not seen gym ever in her life. All she does is taking care of a dog, garden, cow. It happens all the time, like every few sims days. First I thought she got that muscular because she was foraging much, but she's not foraging anymore and still getting max muscles.Solvedgosqueen11 days agoSeasoned Rookie66Views0likes7CommentsGame issues

Infinite loading screen when resuming game
NOTE: I have already looked at the pinned post about infinite loading screens, but I couldn't find anything that helps with my issue. Ever since the latest update, I've been experiencing issues with an infinite loading screen whenever I try to resume my game from the home screen. It also happens when I try to make a new save file - I can get into CAS just fine, but then when I try to actually play with the household, I get an infinite loading screen. I looked at the main thread about infinite loading screens, but I still get the issue. I've already tried the following things: Updating my mods and removing outdated ones (I did that before I first booted up the game after the update) Removing all my mods Repairing the game (multiple times at multiple stages of trying to fix my game) Renaming my game folder and starting the game again to create a new one Loading my game through 'load game' instead of 'resume game' Trying to load a different household/different lots After renaming my game folder and doing all that, I did get my game to load a completely new save file like normal. But then, when I moved my save files back into the new folder, the issue started happening again. I did get it to somewhat work if I do the following: Press 'load game' instead of 'resume game' Load a different household than my main one Go to 'manage worlds' Load my main household from manage worlds If I do that, I can play my game. But I have to do that every. single. time. I want to play (which gets tiring because, you know, I have to go through 4+ loading screens just to start playing the game). And this is without mods at all. So while the issue is kinda resolved, it's still annoying to have to do all that in order to play the game, but I don't know what else to do... At this point, I've reinstalled my mods since they seemingly aren't the problem anyway, and they aren't causing any other problems.SolvedxSimming12 days agoSeasoned Newcomer47Views0likes2Comments
Sims Romantic Preference Keeps Changing
My sims romantic preference and woohoo preference are both set to men. When they're interacting with female sims they get a flirty buff and start to form a romantic relationship. In the simology panel, I see that my sims preferences have changed to men and women. This has happened in three different saves. I have to change it constantly in CAS as this happens whenever my sim performs more than one or two social interactions with a female sim.SolvedELNeteruNave12 days agoSeasoned Rookie64Views0likes5Comments
Former spellcaster still transportalates after becoming a fairy
I had a spellcaster Sim that was max level with all the perks and knew every spell. She had the ability to transportalate and Always Transportalate was toggled on. When I got the Enchanted by Nature pack, I wanted to turn her into a fairy so I made her a human first, then turned her into a fairy. She's a proper fairy with the fairy skill tree, fairy form, fairy XP and everything, but she still transportalates everywhere by default. While kind of neat, I'd rather she use the fairy abilities to get around. However, I can't toggle Always Transportalate off because that interaction is only available to spellcasters. I do have MC Command Centre and have looked for a hidden trait/buff to delete that would stop her from transportalating but I can't seem to find anything related to transportalating in the traits and buffs lists. I really don't want to turn her back into a spellcaster just to toggle off transportalating because I spent hours customizing her fairy form. Does anyone know of a way to stop my fairy Sim from transportalating everywhere without changing her occult type? I'm open to using mods and cheats.SolvedSnarkyWitch12 days agoSeasoned Ace36Views0likes1Comment
