Can't see sims' needs decaying

Hi, I am having an issue with my game. I can't see my sims needs decaying unless they are in yellow or red. When they are in the green they show that the needs are full. I can only see where the needs are in the green if they are less than 100% but more than in the yellow if I press escape to go to the main menu. I have no mods and I have repaired my game but nothing seems to work. Was wondering if anyone had a solution or was having the same problem. Thanks.

    Hi, thanks for replying.

    Yes, it happens to every sim. By "no mods," I mean I have content, mods, and script mods turned off in the game options.

    ieattheicecream Sorry for being a pest about this but does that mean you have mods/cc in your mods folder but turned them off or that you have nothing in the mods folder but resource.cfg ?

    Sometimes mods can persist even if you turn the option off so I need to be extra sure :D

    There are mod related needs issues and there's also an non-mod related one where the needs have the wrong color (red when they are full and such) but I haven't seen one where the needs don't properly decay.

    I checked and I did have mods in my mod folder so I took them all out to test if that was the issue but it didn't seem to fix it.

    Did you delete the locathumbcache file as well ?

    Does it also happen on a new save that never had mods ?

    Yes, I deleted the localthumbcache file, but that didn't work, and yes, it happens on new save files that never had mods.
