I'm going to mark this as fixed as there hasn't been any new reports since forever and testing my game, it seems fine.
If anyone still has it, please post.
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 expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansions, every game pack except Jungle Adventure, and Vintage Glamour being the only stuff pack.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a household with pets, sit back and watch.
What happens when the bug occurs? The color on the pet's icon gets orange meaning they're uncomfortable. They're always whining and sad. Ask them what's wong and a thought bubble with a lamp shade over someone's head pops up and the game tells me the pet is afraid of something and needs a minute to calm down. Little did I know a minute is apparently an eternity in Sims.
What do you expect to see? There should be a wider range of emotions? And emotions that are reasonable? There's literally nothing to be afraid of in the house where my Sims live, as I have deleted everything there is to be scared of. I've used all the cheats, I've repaired the game and I've given them wellness treats - nothing works. I expect to also be able to see my pet's age, learned tricks, needs and moodlets (yes, even if it's not ***realistic***), but I guess I can't expect to see a DLC I paid 40 dollars for to actually work.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
This is seriously unacceptable. The game's been out for half a year and they haven't fixed it? ALL the pets in my household are constantly whining, I'm going insane. I've tried every suggested fix and nothing's working, why can't they just fix their game?? The only thing that's worked so far is giving the pets up for adoption, but what's the point of buying the freaking DLC then?
I'm also noticing that most of the players actually want to be able to see the age of their pet (who knew, huh????), their learned tricks, aquired quirks and fears, their needs and their moodlets. I've also reported the bug twice, but I don't expect to see that fixing anything. Anyone else still having this issue or is it just me having the worst luck of all time? I really don't see how it's okay to charge 40 dollars for a broken game...
HI @gamlegrete
merged your post with existing thread.
The wellness treat can still cause this. They can also get scared from the weather and sometimes are afraid of certain furniture
