[FIXED] [ROM] Spellcasters Cannot Study Magical Tomes to Learn Spells
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 is your current game version number? 1.108.318.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansions: High School Years, Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work Game Packs: Werewolves, Realm of Magic, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat Stuff Packs: Crystal Creations, Paranormal, Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, My First Pet, Laundry Day, Toddlers, Fitness, Vintage Glamour, Backyard, Kids Room, Romantic Garden, Movie Hangout, Perfect Patio
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Have a Spellcaster Sim 2. Obtain a spell tome (either for spells or potions) 3. Left-click on the tome (can be done in the world or in Sim's inventory) 4. There will be no option to study the tome Additionally: 5. Move tome into a bookshelf 6. Left-click on the bookshelf, select "Study Magical Tome..." 7. None of the tomes in the list will be selectable, all will be greyed out.
What happens when the bug occurs? Spell tomes cannot be studied to learn new spells.
What do you expect to see? When selecting a tome individually, there should be a Study Tome option, and tomes should also be selectable for study from the bookshelf menu. If I recall, the option should be present regardless of whether the spellcaster is of a sufficient level to learn the spell, presenting a popup message mid-reading if the spell is too complex for their current level.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Issue only appeared after the July 23rd, 2014 patch.
Attached 3 screenshots, one showing no study option to study a tome in the inventory, one showing the greyed-out option in the "Study Magical Tomes..." bookshelf menu, and one showing that the Sim in question does not know the spell in question (Chillio).
Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title.
- Sims are once again able to read Magic Tomes. Time to get back to the spellbooks!
Fixed in Patch 1.108.349/1.97
