Please use this thread going forward: Sim Gets Fear of the Dark After Being Cured (Patch 1.97.42) | EA Forums - 5036599
@iamsweetmystery I moved your post over to the post for the fear cured/not present. The other thread was about the fear being there in daylight (with the fear present so it was just the time it occurred that was off)
See solution post for a workaround. You will need cheats but they shouldn't disable your achievements as you don't need testingcheats for them.
You will also need to turn fears on :D
@crinrict - It's really a bit of both, so whatever you feel is the best spot is fine by me. No worries.
@crinrict - So, I did find a bit of a workaround that, at the very least seems to have made the Moodlet go away (for now) based on how you helped me handle the problem a few months ago with the W&F not turning off properly. I activated Wants & Fears, saved my game, restarted, deactivated Wants & Fears, saved again, restarted again. The Moodlet stopped cycling and timed out around 7:30am and hasn't come back yet. How long that will last remains to be seen. Like putting a bandage on a broken leg, really. Doesn't get to the root of the problem, but it makes things a bit better for now.
Edit: Disregard that. The Moodlet just reappeared at 3:13 in the afternoon, just after she got off school. This is just plain broken.
@crinrict - It's just gotten worse and I don't I don't know where to post about this, but the same girl is now disregarding the autonomy setting as well. I have autonomy disabled for the active Sim. Always have had. Now she's cueing up autonomous actions like watching TV and using the monkey bars. Is there an existing thread for this? if so, please link. Or do I need to start a new one?
