Same, can confirm on the Series X. I have install patch 2.1.6.2300. I was able to transfer sims to "new" households and now because of the update, can't anymore. I can only do it with "existing" households. I own all packs except for: Eco Lifestyle, Lovestruck, Growing Together, For Rent, My Wedding Stories, and Life and Death.
Yes, this just started happening tonight after the patch.
I have all EPs except Lovestruck, L &D, have all GPs, SPs and some kits.
I removed mods when testing and I tried with an existing save and a brand new save and got the same result. I thought I was losing my mind at first! I'm on PC.
I can confirm the same thing when trying to split and merge to a new household from manage worlds.
Edited to add, I tried doing it at the household level and it would let the sim initiating the split create a new household, but I couldn't bring any other sims (I tried with one of the two children) with them (just adding as an FYI, since the work around is to just do it in two steps, create the new household first from the household level and then go to manage worlds to add the other sims to the new household).
Note my game version is PC: 1.110.265.1030 DX11, playing with no mods/cc, I repaired the game after the update and I have all the packs and kits.
Best regards,
Jennifer
How do I do the workaround? I tried to set apart two playable ghosts so that one can be reincarnated when Life and Death comes out.
The split from household option disappeared on me.
This happens regardless of whether you "split and merge," create a new household or even use the household management menu from the map
