Re: [BY DESIGN] [CL] UnorthoBox Gaming Console disconnected

Nope I don't have any custom mods ☹️ It's okay, now I solved it by putting each console to their own TV lol Thanks though!! 🙂!

  • Thanks for moving the post! 🙂

    Hopefully there's a more ideal solution for this in the future, but for now, I guess each box to its own TV... 🙂!

  • Hey, so I'm also having this problem, but the console to TV ratio is 1:1. Neither the TV stand (coffee table) nor TV itself is CC, but placing the console on the floor next to the TV stand just doesn't work. I've tried in front, to the side, angled, straight, everything. And there don't seem to be any TV stands that will fit both the console AND TV. Perhaps the gaming console needs to be smaller and/or able to place on the same footprint as the TV? idk. I could try a wall-mounted unit but that doesn't fix the problem.

    It's weird cause when i put them on the ground, one of them can be read, but the other couldn't .. and technically they are the same distance away from the TV lol, so I don't even know lol 😞

    The text says an "unpaired" TV. That would mean you need only one game system per TV.
    It would be like trying to play Xbox and Playstation on a single television at the same time. You can play one or the other but not both.

    Well, but, when it says "unpaired" I do not have either of the systems running, so your comparison with the PS and Xbox does not work.

    I guess my last pictures are depicting a whole different problem from my initial post....

    However, if the images in the first post show that while that one box is being played, the other one says "unpaired", then your analogy would make sense.

    I've tried all kinds of scenarios and I can't duplicate this. Always one works. On the TV stand or without. If I have multiple, one randomly connects.

    Do you guys still have this issue after the current patch ?

    @BabiHunni How far away do you have it and which TV and console are you using ? Did you recolor them ?

    Just want to add a note from one of the Sims 4 designers: "The TV can only be linked to one console at a time."
