Re: [LD] No Sims show up at festivals/Missing activities socials

@Yin-hime Personally didn't have any issues except for the known issue with the stereo at the thinning festival

Would be good if you could also test the other festivals.

A few picture of the menu would also be good.

    Hello!

    We've been unable to reproduce this issue internally, if any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), could you please provide screenshots or save files (save file instructions here http://x.ea.com/74420) of it occurring in-game to assist with our investigation?

    Thanks!

  • I’ve made multiple attempts to go to the Afterlife Anonymous festival/event. With and without mods I’ve tried but it never started, and no one would ever show up. Here is my save file right outside of the location in Mourningvale where it was supposed to have started. I’ve fast forwarded over several sim days waiting for one of the events to start and it never has. I did get to attend the Thinned Festiveil festival but I didn’t see any special options, like tarot card reading and such despite the sims being there for the event. Also the little quests like Alice’s Sorrow are also buggy for me, I was able to get some of the quests done between two sims but had to cheat to complete it because between the two sims some things would cross off the list, but not others. Like “Find Freddy” would work for one sim, but not the other for example.

    No ones replying or anything, but this is still very much a standing problem. 😢

    I'm having a similar issue. Casket Sale, Celebration of Life, and Afterlife Anonymous will not spawn. There are also no event notifications for those events. I've had a sim wait for multiple days at the event locations and nothing happens. The rest of the LD festivals seem to work fine, with notifications and information pop ups.

    @localsimologist That’s my exact problem too. The only ones that work are the ones that send out notifications (LD festivals still work) but Casket Sale, Celebration of Life, and Afterlife Anonymous are a no go, and no notifications either, but I assume they weren’t supposed to get ones? Either way standing around waiting for days, or leaving and coming back to the lot make no difference, they just don’t work, which make multiple quest lines uncompletable. 😔

    Is it still happening to you? Any luck with workarounds? It's still happening to me. I ended up adding a UI Extension so I could complete the Favors goals, but it would still be nice to attend the events... I'm going to keep nudging this in hopes it escalates. I'd love to avoid a complete reinstall, which might be the only fix......

    Yeah, still happening to me, no fixes or workarounds (other than cheats) found yet. I have a UI extension cheat too, you can just click things off to do away with quests, but it takes the fun out of them. I really wanna attend the events too. Looks like the problem is getting ignored though, not enough people complaining about it I guess. 😔

    If you do end up reinstalling the game, can you let us know if that fixes the issue for you?

    I have a similar problem, the thinned festival didnt spawn... Nothing happend ☹️ Did we find a solution yet ?

  • So far no, people are just ignoring the problem and the people complaining about the problem, I even provided my save file, but have gotten ignored. Wondering if a full game install might be the only way to “fix” it. I don’t have the time to test the theory myself at the moment, but it might come down to it eventually.

    Having this exact problem in my save as well. Didn’t even know the casket sale or celebration of life were a thing because those have never spawned. Trying to complete the afterlife anonymous task for the tarot favour and nothing happens when I go to mourningvale at those times.
