Please use this thread going forward: [VGSP] Butler changes after going to another lot | EA Forums - 12315633
Hi @LaR0ja
I currently don't have much time for testing myself but it would help the QA team, so yes, please.
As I have already mentioned in this thread -> https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/TO-TEST-VGSP-Butler-wont-do-his-her-job-right-once-again/m-p/7210213/highlight/true#M78660
since the season patch my Butler got replaced again while my Sims was at work. F-Sim owns a Vet Clinic (self-employed), and when she came back home, my old Butler was gone and a new Butler arrived. I have the same customised Butler since Vintage came out, and I was very happy with him after the Butler Bug was once fixed in the past. Next day when loading the lot the new Butler had a car bubble over his head and just left while my old Butler arrived again.
I didn't know about this new issue with Bulters again since I only have one household with a Butler, but haven't played it for a while. Only recently when played this household again I have noticed several issues - Once again as posted in linked Bug Report Thread.
EA StaffHello everyone!
We have not been able to reproduce this issue at our end.
Would you be willing to send us your save files? If so, instructions are here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/INFORMATION-How-to-Send-User-Files-to-The-Sims-4-Team/m-p/6065...
That would help us a lot!.
Thank you very much! 🙂
I have had something similar happen with two different saves.
1. Vlad hired a butler to clean up after all his cats. After a few sim days, when I (Vlad) returned home from another lot the butler had changed from a man to a woman. The first sim was still alive and well, I checked.
First I fired her and hired a new one. Got my original butler, but he got replaced by the same woman a sim week later. This time I ignored the change and continued to play. One day when returning home the man was back.
This went on a few times before I quit using the butler.
If I refind this save I will send it to you
2. Judith Ward in her original home in Del Sol Valley. First got an elderly man, and later some woman came instead. the man was not dead.
This time around it took much longer (in sim time) before the man suddenly showed up again one day.
Maybe he came sooner, I wouldn't know because these butlers would stand in the "butler standby" pose all the way down the "driveway" and almost by the Bailey-Moon household. I have since this fired the butler(s) and played many other households in this save, would it still be of use for you @SimGuruIcarus?
