Hey guys. I did a search for this but could not find anything.I'm having an issue with the Voodoo doll.I seem to be able to bind the doll ( I get the message saying it's bound) but then it will not preform any of the actions. I click on an action and it shows up in the left hand corner but then nothing happens.Does anyone know if there is a work around for this ? I have both the spell book and the FOY do I need to get rid of one of those for this to work ? Cheers for any help you can give me, the voodoo doll is the one thing I was really really excited about. :( Oh, I forgot to mention that my game is up to date with patches and both the crystal ball and the cauldron work.

@ThisLittleSimmer, you might be better off asking about this over in TS4 as it seems that you're a TS4 player and this thread is about the TS3 voodoo doll... ;)Edit to add a link to the thread that I've started for you over in The Sims 4 section... :)http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/940731/voodoo-doll-not-working-ts4/p1?new=1

Thanks @lisasc360 for making the new thread! @ThisLittleSimmer If your question is about The Sims 3, please let me know via a wall post or @ tag me in the new thread.I am closing this one as it is quite old :)Thanks,-Mage

She reminds me of a dark haired version of Pink in her face.

I haven't had any problem with the voodoo doll, but only used it twice. It worked both times.

Maybe there's a mod in your game that's affecting it?

I only had problem one time but that was trying to bind the doll to the thief that was fighting with everyone in the house, other than that no problems.

Ug I'm frustrated. I emailed the EA help and got a response saying since it'sa game play issue to post here for help. Ea doesn't wanna hear it I'm afraid.

Thanks for trying to help guys.

This makes me laugh.. "
However, the best people to speak to would be the developers and the only way to do that would be to post your issue or enquiry on the forums. By posting your issue on the forums, you may also get assistance or suggestions or information from the fellow gamers who have expertise regarding the issue."

Poor devs already have so much to do, I can't foresee one being in a hurry to sit down and help me here.

Normally, I'd shrug it off but I really really wanted this voodoo doll and am really disappointed.

Just wanted to know if this got resolved too. :) I am cautious about buying it now.

No, I'm sorry to report not as of yet. I wrote a reply letting the Email consultant know I was unhappy and they wrote back with their standard write you off comment of " Uninstall and then reinstall your game, I am sure this will sove your issue"

I've had quite a few bugs and have uninstalled and reinstalled so many times that I'd have to repys the base game and WA ...not gonna happen. I was too disgusted to write another comment back.

That said, it seems to me that my doll not working is more of a one off. Many other's dolls seem to work just fine and I even watched a video posted on utube by a player on what was supposed to happen, so there must be working dolls out there.

I'd hate for you to miss out just because of I'm having an issue, it may work fine for you. :)
