I'm trying to get my sim to finish her freelance job as an artist. The icons simply won't finish, and the same goes for any piece I attempt to have her make on the digitalistic sketchpad. The easel is not affected.

    Same here.... ugh, I was excited because they said they fixed the last bug with the digital artist freelance bug (which was a problem since September), but now my sketches won't complete. I can't even tell if the last bug was fixed since I can't complete any sketches. What happens is when it gets close to the 85-90% range finished it skips to the end, the tablet appears on the ground, and the pen is stuck to my sim's hand and it follows her everywhere she goes, unless I sell the tablet (for $0) and restart the game.

    @SaemianI noticed this playing last night. My sim kept spending 75 simoleons, the action would get to the end and she'd drop the pad on the ground (no painting/sketch resulting). It frustrated me so much, I changed freelancer trades from artist to photog. :/ And, she also paints fine on the easel. She auto-painted and it came out fine.(yes, vanilla game)

    Exactly the same problem. I play on a Mac, and I’ve never had any mods or cc installed and have all packs except Vampires and Batuu installed.
