Re: [FIXED] Game crashing/visual issues on character values UI menu

So I updated my game today and I have a pretty decent gaming computer everything seemed fine and then I tried to open my teen sims control panels like the one that has their values and info with the age bar for adults it’s ok but when you click to open on a child/teens to open it it doesn’t let you scroll down in fact the scroll bar doesn’t even show and it has the values for good or bad characteristic traits from parenthood constantly looking like something is going up on both sides even though I’m not having them do anything that would effect that and then after I try to open their panels it won’t let me click on any of the upper ui buttons to like exit out or save game I have to force quit and it’s not until I try to open the panels it does this… I have attached a photo to show what I mean

    I’m actually glad to see someone else who is having the exact same glitch as me, makes me feel less worried.

    I'm also facing the same issue where when I click on the Simology button the pop up is all messed up, then I cannot save the game or exit the game.

    Yes it's horrible!!!  I'm having the same issue!! No mods no cc in my game, but my teen control panel for the manners and stuff is going up and down. Can't click on anything, can't save... had to force quit my game.

    Hi, I have this same problem and the only way to save the game is by going to manage world and press the save option. This allows me to save it but then i get stuck on a black screen with only access to the unusable panels. Have you found a way to fix it?

    Alright friends decided to take a risky plunge. So took my legacy save (backed up the save file elsewhere ofc) and disabled parenthood. Loaded it up and played a min despite missing pack stuff - I played for like 15 mins exited game but through Save AS to further protect the legacy. I then re-enabled parenthood and booted it back up. Parenthood now works for me and so does the new update. I was able to access CAS Build Mode, World View, Travel etc. Made my teen do a good deed, and her manners went up - all previous work I put in is gone though. Not a perfect solution but my heavily modded game isn't broken and I didn't lose any storyline progress.  

    PS. My sims do not seem to be suffering from the hate everyone around me bug - I have yet to see the incest. 

    Worth a try! But make sure you back up your fave saves
