@KAJ3D Do you have any LastException files in your documents folder ?
Best is to delete the ones you have, then trigger the error and check if new ones are created.
If that is the case, please upload

Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Uploading the file is meant for troubleshooting.@valindorfern Merged your post. Same question.
- @crinrict
I deleted the LastException files in my documents folder and restarted my game. I tested multiple saves with no social menus. There were no new Last Exception files created. - crinrict2 years agoHero+
@KAJ3D Would you mind sending me your affected save ? Instructions in my signature
@dee15644 Merged your post with the current report. To be sure, you're also not using mods/Cc ? Is it all Sims/Saves or you ?
i tried all the things you suggested and i'm still having the issue. may i send you my save file to check out?
- crinrict2 years agoHero+
@valindorfern yes
@Bresil145 I merged your post with the bug report.
@crinrictSent you my save file folder, thanks for all your work you do here 🙂
- @crinrict ok thank you. I also discovered that I can't order food or drinks from bars, coffee shops (Get together) and foodstands or the different stands in cottage living and city living. But I'm able to order at restaurants from Dine out (only by clicking on the table not sims)

Thanks for the saves.
I've already forwarded them to EA but will also test myself after dinner.
I tried using a file from two years ago and it wouldn’t work. Literally none of my files would work

Okay, I tried this with another household that I have not played with in a while.
When I arrived at this household, the glitch wasn't happening at all.
I tried a couple of interactions and then one of the couples in the household did autonomous woohoo.
After that, the glitch occurred on one of them.
So, I did woohoo on an elder couple, and the glitch happened to the male Sim after the woohoo.
I had aging off, when I turned aging back on the male elder sim died right then and there.
You could interact with his urn.
When I brought him back, you could interact with his ghost and bring him back to life - then the glitch was gone.
This is definitely a strange one.
Quick question, do you guys have the new shopping cart button? They posted on X that this was a test, so not everyone got this. Maybe those who don’t have the shopping cart button are having the bug with the interaction. Because in my case, I don’t have the shopping cart button, but the bug with the interaction.
- @laura_rdgr I think both people who have the button and those who don't have reported having this issue.
- @KAJ3D 😭😭 tried. EA if you see this pls fix this and see this as an emergency, the whole game isn’t playable at all now 😭
I have the button and it is broken! I don't think it has to do with that (but I'd love if they removed it)
- Llandros20122 years agoSeasoned Ace@laura_rdgr I have the shopping cart and I have the bug.
Here's what I know: 3 Sims in my household are affected. One is a Sim I've been playing in multiple saves since 2019. If I have him selected, I cannot interact with other human Sims. However, he can interact with his horse and other objects (I can get him to "go here", take showers, cook meals, etc). But no menu pops up when I click on him or another Sim while he's selected. If I select a Sim that's not affected by this bug, they can interact with him.
I tried this without mods, same problem. Tried repairing the game, deleting localthumbcache and other files that regenerate upon startup to no avail.I'm having the same issue. Three in my household are affected...all adults, children are not. They are not famous, not occult. One was at work in detective career when it started. I've repaired, deleted local thumb cache, mods, and crash files and nothing is working. So frustrating. I've been playing this family for three years.
I have the same problem, but just for one Sim. The Sim I play most with. All the other Sims in her household are fine.
- @KAJ3D All my saved games in the Sims4 folder have the same issue. Resatrting the game and then other Sims have the issue... The more I restart the game the more sims show the issue
- @Entropy1026 I have been playing the same sim since 2019 also! Its on multiple saves but in the same world. Random sims seem to be affected but I'm not sure what the affected sims have in common.
I've already got a couple of old bugs in this save file that I've been dealing with like random sims aging up when I switch households and the interior designer career doesn't work.
I'm hopeful that they will fix this new issue as it's a game breaking one, but I'm not going to bother with the sims anymore if I have to start over. - JudiLawlor2 years agoSeasoned Newcomer@crinrict I'm having the same problem but, in a full household, it's only the 3 Sims first added to the household that can't interact with other Sims.
The later added Sims are working normally. I understand these are the same Sims affected by the lack of banners during events/holidays that was fixed on the last update... - crinrict2 years agoHero+@JudiLawlor Did you try the solution in the workaround post ?
- JudiLawlor2 years agoSeasoned Newcomer@crinrict I can't find that - sorry - how far back is it in the thread?
- crinrict2 years agoHero+@JudiLawlor It's the post accepted as solution. You can find it on the first page (second post)
- JudiLawlor2 years agoSeasoned Newcomer@crinrict OK I've cheated their Singing skill to 1 and yes it works. So weird!
