[FIXED] [VGSP] Butler wont do his/her job right - once again

HI @LuvMySimz

The changing has a thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/TROUBLESHOOT-VGSP-Butler-changes-after-restaurant-visit/m-p/6734312 .. don't really think it's connected to restaurant visits from what you're saying so we can use that.

As my report said, it’s mainly about Butlers not doing much anymore since Patchy got part of the game. the changing happens when my Sim comes back from work, not restaurant. Today when loading the lot the new Butler had a car bubble over his head and just left and then my old Butler arrived again. Still not doing much really. He water the plants but leaves the weeding to my Sim or Patchy. I believe that ever since Patchy was created, that someting went wrong with the Butler coding.

ETA: @crinrict After reading the thread you have linked I have posted part of the issue with Butlers changing in the thread you've provided, thanks for the link.

My butler is also doing virtually nothing, even when ordered to do so. Especially annoying when my Winterfest house guests would not leave; I ordered the butler to dismiss all visitors, but he just stood there reading his butler book. I fired him and hired another butler, who exhibited the same behavior. I don't have Patchy in this household, but I do have Seasons (as well as all other expansions except Laundry and Small Pet stuff) so it might be related.

No mod, No cc.

First one is my current playing.

Not only he/she does barely their duties but also idle behavior.

I'm pretty sure it's wrong.

I don't have Seasons and I have the same problem with my butler. They do take care of the plants, but thats all. they just read or stand somewhere random. I have to pretty much force them to care for the toddler by making the toddler interact with the butler. When it comes to the cleaning part, it won't happen and if I chose to assign work to the butler, I get the messege that the butler can't do it as they are busy/not finished with their current task. But they are doing nothing and reset sim won't work. I do have mods and cc installed but I doubt that's the issue as it seems others have this issue as well. 

@Nekoboy69I also doubt that CC or Mods are the issues, because I have tested the Butler issue without and with mods/CC, and the issue was the same. Also I don't think that it matters if you have the Season pack, or any other kind, because the game gets patched each time for an upcoming pack, whether you buy the pack or not. So the patches are the main issue. As my earlier post said, the issue with Butlers came up after the Season patch. Although I do have Seasons, the issue came with the patch and not with the pack itself.

Up to this day Bulters still became mostly useless since. I did noticed a slight difference with Patchy though. Looks like since the latest patch, that Patchy isn't doning that much anymore as he did before, like cleaning up most everything all the time, and not hanging around as much as before, but sadly the Bulters are still the same. Before the Season patch Bulters were great and doing their jobs (in my game), and not just mostly sitting and reading. I too get those messages that the Butler can't do this or that right now because he is busy doing something else. Yes reading lol.

Version 151.75.1020 

new game or not still not working.

Same for me here, my butler pass is day doing nothing, not taking care of the toddler... and stay freeze next to the fridge, or make meals without me asking for it (I don't know if they should by themself)
