Re: [FIXED] Whims not fulfilling

I've been having multiple bugs since the patch. My whims will not complete if I have it pinned and once I get a new whim it will not change to a new one until I click the X. I also can't complete several of my aspiration check lists. Like reading 3 books for Nerd brain. I've read 6 books and only shows one read. Also odd jobs will only allow me to complete them if I do not have to go to a location. Like Sulani Beach to catch frogs, I will catch the frog at the waterfall but it won't show in my check list that I've completed it. Same with Freelancer job. Every time I complete a task it will not register.

    For everyone who is having this issue with whims there are two known workarounds for this so far. I use both of them in my game.
    1. When you travel to a new location, save your game, exit to Manage Worlds, then go back to play your family, the pinned whims will fulfill in the new location. The downside to this is that you will have to do this every time your sim travels to a new location.
    2. When you travel to a new location just delete your old whims and the new whims that spawn in the new location will fulfill. This was suggested by KATHYKINS (thank you so much!!!) I tested this- it does work. The downside is, that you can't pin any whims before you travel.
    Combining these two methods allows me to continue playing! I do hope they fix this soon!

    @justyniaok1 Thanks! It works for most whims, just a bit tedious! However, those whims to travel to another lot might not work. We still hope EA could fix this glitch ASAP.

    Same issue. When I pin a whim it will not complete. I do not have ROM.

    In my experience pinning or unpinning them has nothing to do with it, just if you decide to go to another lot, travel their first, save and exit game, reload the game and you can then fulfil your pinned whims, or just to save time, don't go out at all..

    @PurpleSweetTart That's too bad. The workaround could just fix 99% of non-emotional whims, some like Go to pubic venue (by going to library was the only solution before) could not be fulfilled. This whim happens pretty often in my game.
