Re: Sims 3 social worker won't deliver a pet...

This is a rather common issue as well. I do not know of any non-mod solutions to this.

You could try to reset the while neighborhood though. Maybe the social worker is stuck somewhere.

To do so, use the cheat resetsim *

Other suggestion: Can you switch active families ? If so, try that.

Make a backup of your game before doing so.

  • I have tried using the "resetsim *" command to no avail, I have tried in map view and while looking at many different places throughout the town to see if it would make a difference... it didn't.

    How do you mean switch active families?? If you mean through the use of the Edit Town menu, I cannot access that (because the social worker is "delivering" my pet).

    Thank you for you help so far!!

    I think I may just have to begin a new family!! I will however do the same steps to see if it simply a bug/glitch with that particular house just out of curiosity!! :D

    Thanks again!!

    Yeah, I don't think there is a way then that does not involve a mod.

    What seemed to fix this issue for me was throwing a party and then adopting right after.  Using mods to activate another house doesn't fix the issue, the horse and social worker still remain outside the other house and resetting the town doesn't fix it either.

    What a weird solution. Thanks for posting.

    One of the NRaas mods has an option to drop the adoption process which usually solves the issues.
