It seems like the issue has been resolved. My Sims just returned from their vacation to Granite Falls and after 2 Sims days, the moodlet/buff goes away. - JTL 01/14/2018
Thanks for looking into my game save for me.
After some thought I came to a solution and I've tried it and I think it's the next best thing. I cloned my current sim (the one with the bug) using the cloning machine from Get to Work (which was already in my house as I'd done the scientist career) and i renamed the clone to the same name as my current sim, then used cheats to make the skills at the same level as before. The cloning method also keeps all of the same traits and reward traits so that's even better as I had quite a few. I then deleted my old sim and have replaced her with this identical copy, and because I deleted her the "husband" is none the wiser. I'll just get their relationship up and get them married and the world will never know! Then overthrow the clubs I was previously leader of but that's not much of an issue 🙂
And of course I've tested for the bug and it's all fine! The moodlet no longer exists yay. I will take them on vacation soon and test it one final time and if it never comes back then problem solved.
Thanks for your help
I had tried replacing your Sim by uploading to the gallery and putting a new copy. Sadly after vacation, the problem was back ☹️
My method seemed to have worked. I took them on vacation and it didnt come back. Though randomly after playing for a while i came back and now the husband has it! Arrrghh! It never ends. I might have to make a copy of him too via cloning and skill cheats and see if it ever comes back after that. If it does then idk maybe my whole save is broken ☹️ and im not restarting that from scratch. I'll keep you updated
Yeah, when I replaced them through the library, they both had it.
Thanks for the update
I let them know that it's still a problem. It might even be a problem that came back with the latest patch when it was fixed in the Feb one.
I have it too on my long lasting Sim. As you say, it comes back randomly. I think it counts down and once it reaches 0 it disappears but as soon as you have a loading screen somewhere, the chances of it coming back are very high
Reopening this as it was never completely fixe and now back in full-force (at least for me)
I still have this bug. I really don't want to have to start my sims or save file again as I've gotten so far with my game :/ for now I guess I'm sticking with my broken sims xD
Are those Sims from before or after Feb Patch ?
So my sims were from before the Feb patch but I hadn't taken them camping until after the Feb patch (I was waiting until after they said they'd fixed the bug). Then as my sims were still broken with the never ending moodlet, I cloned those sims using the Get To Work science cloning machine to make new sims but that looked the same and then I cheated the skills to match what they originally were at. Is a clone it's own new sim or will it carry on the bugs from the original sim? I don't know how it works in the game code but the moodlet is still there. I'm tempted to completed remake my sims but just cheat the skills to match what they were, but I'm reluctant because I've literally had these sims for months and months and gotten so far with them, with careers and unlock career items, collections, reward traits, relationships etc that restarting would be pretty depressing. :/
