Didn't get a Noble Title After Marrying a Prince...Aren't We Supposed to?
My sim married the Capp Prince and didn't inherit his title for some reason. At the time of marriage, he was no longer an outcast but was still just a member of his father's dynasty. The sim who married him was a commoner with no title and remained title-less after the marriage was complete. Reloading the game didn't cause it to appear. I even tried clearing their marriage and then re-marrying twice more with the same result both times.
I've been going mad searching the internet about this. I've read that we're supposed to inherit titles through marriage with this pack, so if we marry a Prince, we should become a Princess. This didn't happen. Google's AI at the top of the search results kept mixing up the EP with the mod based on the same concept. It claimed that being opted out of fame during marriage, which I was, can cause a bug that prevents a title from appearing properly. However, I wasn't able to find search results that confirmed this to be the case with the EP specifically. I did step into fame before re-marrying, but as I said before it didn't help. In fact, I couldn't find search results about anyone else having this problem.
I'm not using mods right now so I know that's not an issue, but it's getting to the point where I might try reinstalling MCCC if it's updated and force the proper title to appear if possible since no other cheats to do so are available. I know I can just join the career and auto promote to get the same effect, but it just bugs me that I can't have a normal career and still get a royal title labeled as inherited through marriage. I've played the pack for 2 days and it's already ruining my fun. Did I not get his title because he isn't the leader of his dynasty? Or is it a bug? Is anyone else having this problem (if it really is a bug) and do you know of a solution or any other work around besides the career?
Hi, I am so sorry you are experiencing this problem! It sounds so frustrating!
A couple thoughts I have:
1. Lord Virgilio Capp in the original new game save starts as an outcast of his dynasty. He inherited his title because of his father's position (Grand Duke Tybalt Capp). He doesn't have his own title so to speak, it's a title passed down by birth only. Also, his relationship with the Head of his dyansty (Tybalt) is in a really bad place. I am not sure if this impacts or not, but perhaps improving the relationship can help?
2. If you put Virgilio in the Noble Career, he would have his own title by his Career choice. Perhaps this would then transfer to his spouse as well?
3. Make sure the Head of the Dyansty (Tybalt) invites the Wife to become a Member of the Dynasty.
4. Just for reference, there are no Princes or Princesses in the game until there is A King/Queen. The Monarch's children will get the title of Prince or Princess. There can only be one Monarch. Their spouse and children automatically inherit titles based on their relationship with the Monarch.
I hope this is a little helpful!
I am struggiling with a different issue - my Queen's husband views her as a Rival in the noble career, even after they married. I haven't been able to find any help on that issue either. Hopefully there will be some support available soon to help us all with our Sims issues!
I hope you have a lovely day! 💐
