Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.156.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All game expansions. All gamepacks except Journey to Batuu and Strangerville. All stuff packs except first pet, bowling, romantic garden, and spooky stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I spent days building a new home, fully decorated and painted. I noticed all sims in my household get the poorly decorated moodlet as soon as they walk onto the new property. I am using the Shipping View lot but with my own build. I have checked that everything is painted, floors are complete, and every room is fully decorated. I have redecorated, removed, added, and altered. I have checked my Sims' inventories for garbage or other unappealing items.
What happens when the bug occurs? All of my sims gain a poorly decorated moodlet, regardless of the lot and room quality. It used to be that the decorate buff was dependent on the room the sim is currently occupying.
What do you expect to see? I expect rooms to have individual decorative boosts, and to see "nice" or "very nicely" decorated mood buffs when my lot is highly decorated. I expect to NOT see a poorly decorate moodlet when there is no logical reason for the mood.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. This only started for me after the most recent patch when snowy escape came out.
My sims always have a poorly decorated mood buff and it doesn't make sense!
I read through some of the replies linked to this chain and learn that old saves won't be fixed by a recent patch. My save file is a few months old, and the only patch it has received is the most recent accompanying Snowy Escape. I never experienced the poorly decorated glitch prior to the most recent patch. I created a new household and moved into an existing game lot, and so far I have not experience the glitch. Its unfortunate to lose game progress and be unable to return to previous saves just because of a patch though.
