Re: [ARCHIVED] Sims never turn into Plantsims after eating forbidden fruit/cheats

I got the beans through the debug menu and the stump,

put the beans in the stump,

the tree popped up

I went into the magic tree portal,

got the forbidden fruit,

planted it,

Harvested it

Ate fruit.... Nothing happened

So then I shift click on my sim

Select "make into Plantsim DEBUG"... Nothing happens

So I type "control+shift +C"

Enter "testingcheats true"

Repeat the shift click cheat and... Nothing happens

So I ask my friend (who has Sims 4 PC too) to shift click her sim and select "make into Plantsim DEBUG" and... Her Sim immediately turns into a Plantsim! 😂

After this I tried all of the steps mentioned in my original post but nothing changes. I took out my mods folder and everything so I'm confused as to why it works for her and not me? 😕

Thank you for your time! ❤️

@cynthiaj89 Reporting it here is fine. I just don't have a solution.

QA monitors this forum.

Maybe others have similar experiences and can chime in.

I am having this same exact issue! I got my beans and stump by purchasing them after getting my sim to Gardening Skill level 10. No debug buys or anything. I've repaired the game, reset my sim. I obtained the fruit by going through the portal. I'm running vanilla install, have never used mods and I am not using any custom content, either. I then tried to use the testingcheats option and it too did nothing. I get no animation or reaction to eating the fruit other than the moodlet "Better than Expected" from eating a harvestable. I did plant the fruit and have eating multiple fruit at the same time.

Edit: My Sim is a witch...

That did it. Thanks, I had started thinking that might have been the issue...

Yeah, I was going to say, I did it fairly recently with one of my gardener Sims.  She's not an occult and it worked fine for her.  I think that was a patch ago, though.  I could have her do it again as a test if it's helpful...

(She spam-bought rare seed packets until she got them all and bought a stump through the usual buildbuy.  She had a near death experience with the (##)*$#& water garden--I thought you had to intentionally jump in to die, but no--and I figured she deserved a "treat."  She loves plants, why not be one for a while?)

Hi--Iam having this exact same problem, no other occult chosen. Any solution(s) yet? TIA!. 

Hello.

For anyone encountering this issue (with an empty Mods folder), would you be willing to share affected save files?

This is my first post, just so I can say thank you for this knowledge. I wasted an embarrassingly long amount of time trying to figure out why my alien wouldn't turn into a plant sim after eating the fruit. Bless you <3
