Seasons. Holidays disappeared

Does the world you're playing in have a festival lot? If it doesn't, you need to add it in edit town -mode.

It seems the holidays are dependent on the festival lots. When I started playing in Dragon Valley, I didn't have a festival lot at first, and I was wondering where all the holidays were. Then I added a festival lot and got the holidays.

IvetteKemp i think you'd like these festival lots I have because they're very well designed and well-equipped for a day out.

They are both custom festival lots I built myself after getting tired of EA's badly designed festivals where Sims have to run home for bathes or showers and run back there to go to work.

Hey, thanks for your reply. I do have a festival ground and at first the holidays were there. My sims celebrated twice love day, leisure day, spooky day and snowflake day, but when the third year begun, they disappeared. Any suggestions? I have a Mac OS 10.8.5 and the latest version of The sims 3. Please, help!

In that case the only thing that comes to mind is to bulldoze the existing lot and replace it. The festival lot might have become glitched somehow.

If you have edited the lot without the necessary cheats, it might also stop working. I once placed some stuff on the lot and suddenly the festivals weren't changing. Only later I found out that you can't just edit the lot the way you edit any other lot. I don't remember if that caused the holidays to disappear, but I know the festivals stopped working.

If replacing the lot doesn't help, then I have no idea, what to do.

Hi, thanks again for your replies and help. I tried changing the lot and making the season go fast to jump to the next year and nothing changed, still no holidays. This all happened after a game update, the latest. I have no mods installed and I didn't edit anything in town. This is all strange, isn't it? :(

It is strange. And it's strange also that for me the festival lot and the holidays seem to be tied together, but FryeGuy24 has gotten holidays without the lots.

It seems very random, really. Perhaps you could try to start a new game and see if it works. Sometimes the games just get glitched and corrupted.

Yes sounds like patch 1.63 has broken the holidays. Someone else made a post about this in the ITF Forums. I'll mention it to Crin.

:shock: I saw holidays for the present worlds.

Holidays seem to be working properly on Moonlight Falls in my game.

I play in Sunlit Tides, and just had the Leisure Day. So, either the patch broke it only for some, or is it possible Into the Future is messing with it? I don't have the EP.
