    Sims should now actually be able to finish writing songs. Perhaps those of us with closets full of unfinished projects should take notes.

    Fixed in Patch 1.103.250/1.84

    Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue,

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? 1.99.305.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Level sim up on violin until they can write songs. 2. Try to write song on public violin (I was using the one in the Arts Centre in San Myshuno) 3. Wait as progress bar fills.
What happens when the bug occurs? The sim keeps writing the song indefinitely. Tip logic still works. When exiting and re-entering the game (with saving), the Sim's song progress is reset.
What do you expect to see? The Sim finishes writing the song.
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. Patched from version 1.99.264.1030.

I haven't yet tried songwriting on piano or guitar in the new update yet, but suspect similar. I haven't tried in this patch on owned instruments either.

    Additional info: Tried in another save; bug failed to manifest. May be because the sim I played with originally is a teen as opposed to the YA I tested with.

    Edit: Nope, works with a teen on another save too. probably either tied to Infant age-up traits, Toddler ageup traits (I did need to cheat to fix a bug with the trait not assigning), or Child aspiration reward traits. I can't think of what else it may be.

      This bug has been a thing for so long, and it's kinda annoying. It made the Music Aspiration pretty unachievable through legitimate means. Honestly this wasn't a bug when I played the game and got City Living for the first time 5 years ago.

        Write song on piano never completes, although progress circle is full
