Issue

When my sim creates a Party Hardy custom mix, after they've finished it and named it, they are both unable to play it on their DJ booth and License it through their mailbox. The custom mix effectively disappears. This does not happen with any of the other custom mix types.

Steps you took for Issue to occur

Created a Party Hardy Custom Mix with the Quantum Retro DJ Booth. Was replicated on the “Turn-Table-Top Tote” DJ Booth after restarting the game.

Where does the bug occur?

As it would be time consuming to attempt to replicate this bug, I am hoping that someone else could confirm that this is happening to them as well.

Mods/CC

I do not have any mods or custom content, nor have I ever installed any.

Expansion Packs/Game Packs/Stuff Packs

I own both the Get to Work and Get Together expansion packs.

Occurring since

This was the first time I've attempted to create Custom Mixes, so I am uncertain if a recent patch has caused this issue.

Operating system

I am running the game on Windows 10 Home, 64 bit.

Me too.

I just had this exact same thing as described happen to me. Created a "Party Hardy" custom mix, completed it after many hours of sim time and then was asked to name it. Afterwards, I could not find it listed under my list of saved custom mixes on the DJ booth and could not send it for licensing. It was as if it never existed.

After watching an old Let's Play on YouTube from when Get Together released and seeing that the Party Hardy mixtape has been broken since launch of the expansion pack, I decided to see if I could make a mod to fix it.

It is actually quite a simple fix - in the Music Styles tuning file for DJ mixes, it lists five styles as valid for playing on the DJ booth and Licensing Songs. But there are SIX styles - the one for Party Hardy is missing from the list of valid styles.

After adding in the line for the Party Hardy mix, everything works as it should. I could click on the DJ booth and play my Party Hardy song and also licence it on the mailbox.

I didn't even have to make a new one - the one I'd made and named ages ago was there - so it DID get created and save properly. It only seemed to disappear from existence because it was never properly defined to ever be visible.

To help the SimGurus with a fix, the file containing the error is tuning ID 125968 (musicStyle_DJBooth_Written) and it's missing the reference to the Party Hardy music track (tuning ID 129665 musicTrack_DJBooth_Written_Play_06).

This is so great, thank you! I just encountered this problem this morning, which led me here. I hope they fix it soon.

I believe this bug has been reported for more than half a year and yet there is no response or fix from the EA developer themselves which is rather frustrating.

Hi @Sentinel_VX

I merged your post with the old thread.

It's never been an issue that had lots of interest though.
