Re: [FIXED] Sims are not moving/Freezing/Animation problems

So, I continued testing today, as I thought there was another issue besides Laundry Day, as Sims danced instead of doing the actual command I gave them... Looks like they simply were stuck in that animation.

I disabled more packs and addons, down to only the base game being active, and they still didnt behave as expected... Then, when I resetting the Sims before letting them interact, they acted normally.

Right now, I finished a final test... Empty Mods folder, all packs activated except Laundry Day, resetting the Sims right after entering the household, and commanding them to hug. And they hugged! No freezing, no idle animation, no dancing.

Working as expected!

  • Hi... Just saying I had the same issue and followed @Ossborn's lead, reinstalled my packs and ditched laundry day folder (SP13) and the sims moved around as normal - in fact, I didn't even need to reset them... they spawned by their beds when I loaded the game. I'm sure it's not the same issue as the old sims-lagging thing.

    Just to be double sure I put SP13 back and loaded the same save aaand... they were sleeping standing in the middle of nowhere, and the motive bar color won't change, either.

    Also removing the pack solve an issue with open waters (Sulani, etc.) being broken and untraversable https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Sulani-sea-amp-open-water-broken-crashes-game/m-p/12386561#M242493 So I suppose they had a common cause. It seems like it also causes Last exceptions. (I had a particularly long one yesterday, but it's gone now.)

    Ps. if you had the same issue, could you check and see if your waters are broken, too? Open waters, not the pools! 🙌
