[ROM] Dedeathify not working

Hello, I recently had many issues with death in the sims 4. My sim, who was a teen fairy, died and became a playable ghost, she lost her ability to ''fly here'' as a fairy when she was turned back to living state by eating ambrosia, the Will never executed and she was locked with no options to make a new will. Not only those, but I tried with her dad who was a spellcasters fully maxed out to dedeathify her while she was still a ghost before I gave her ambrosia, and absolutely nothing happened. You could see the interaction first going into the queue and immediately disapearing, with nothing happening, not even a single animation. Like it just cancelled on me.

I have no mods, and play with every singles packs.

  • I'm having the same issue of the Dedeathify spell not working properly.
    My sim (virtuoso spellcaster) used the spell on his sister (regular sim/no occult) who died of freezing to death and nothing happened. The spellcaster sim did get the icon above his head with the little book and the plus sign (gaining experience). I tried multiple times. Then the spell failed/backfired (this time the sim actually animated doing the spell and failing with the black poof of smoke) and the spellcaster became a ghost temporarily. So it seems the spell does 'work' when it fails (the spell casting animation is shown and the -failed- spell has a visible effect in game), but not when it is supposed to succeed (the interaction drops from the queue, there is no casting spell animation and the sim is not brought back to life).

    Did Ambrosia work fro you for this death ? 

    There's a few issues with different death and methods so trying to find out if it's now working at all or just for certain death.

    Yes. When the dedeathify spell didn't work I revived the sim with Ambrosia.

    Just to answer maelbe, if I understand well, its not exactly the same. My sim dont move when I indicate to dedeathify... I see the interaction in the queue and immediately disappear without my sim having the time to do anything... meaning, the spell is not failling, but just not happening at all. I must say, its not like the typical sims droping queued interactions, then you try again, and it eventually works... thats just not processing in the queue, it just get whipe out immediately after I click on dedeathify. Any other interactions are fine.

    Francoisf30​  Sorry if I didn't explain properly, but I think we're talking about the same thing.
    The interaction was disappearing from my queue as well, exactly as you describe, with nothing happening. I see the interaction in the queue, then when the sim is supposed to do the interaction it disappears - no movement, no resurrection. 
    I tried a lot of times. And most times when I tried the interaction dropped/disappeared in this way. Only sometimes something did happen, but it was always the spell failing, never working.
    There is always a chance for any spell to either succeed or fail and both options have different animations. My guess is that the succeeding animation is broken, but not the failing one. Does this make sense?
