[EBN] Can't change into fairy form/use powers

this is nothing to do with what you said but I was trying to look for help and this is where they sent me. my fairy cannot use the ladder in fairy form. she has to go to human form in order to use the ladder. that is really annoying her bed is on the second floor and I have a ladder. somebody please fix this. I spent $34 on this pack.....

Yes, so far so good on everything.

Thanks again for the advice

HI Siren_Fox​ 

moved this to gameplay for now then. Let me know if you have further issues. 

Did you put back your save yet and does that also work ?

junoandmars​ What steps have you taken yet ? Did you never use mods/cc or remove them ?

Hey Crinrict

I completely removed all the files and reinstalled everything. I also made sure to select the install folder for the EA to be in the same location as the Steam, that way when I launch via steam all of the dlc's get loaded directly from the same folder.

This seams to have done the trick. I started a new save and everything seems to be functioning again.

Thanks so much for all your help

I wonder if a complete reinstall of the game is in order.  I know this is tedious and to me a last resort kinda thing but if you had messed up installations, it might be best.

1. Backup your user files
2. Uninstall the steam and ea app version. If you can, it might be best to use a tool like revo uninstaller.
3. Make sure you have no sims installation files left in either your steam folder or the Sims installation folder
4. Reinstall the game.

I started up a new save and tested all of the actions again, and still no response.

So it does seem to be a general issue with my game, and not save based.

I don't know if there is any relevance to this matter, but a while back I had issues with EA not allowing me to make dlc purchases without a gift card. After that I switched to using Steam, but after alot of struggles with the game not working anymore I had to make duplicate files of everything, one for the EA folder and one for the Steam folder. I did the same thing for the Ep files for this pack as well.

Don't worry too much about rushing to help me, I understand completely if you have other things going on, and I'm just grateful that you are helping at all 🌸

same here; even without mods. i cant ''forage here'' neither. all the fairies in my saves are dying of starvation bc they cant tranform into fairy form.

Could you test a new save for testing purposes to see if this is limited to your save ? I would test your save but I'm a bit swamped currently so it would be good if you could narrow down first if it's a general issue or save based.

I just tested it with the summerdream household, the same thing is happening to titania and oberon both.

I have a single fairy household, and I never really play with the other households.

Could you test one of the premade households too ? Bit unsure what this is but it would be good to know if it's your household only.

Do you have multiple fairies in that household or also play other households with fairies ?
