Neighborhood stories like to move him in. Just turned them off for Father winter
If Father Winter is moved into a house it may prevent "ask for present" but you say that is not the case for you. You can only ask for present at Winterfest when he visit your sims from 8 PM to midnight. If you meet him at other times the option is not there.
jpkarlsenThank you for your thoughts. I will admit it is what sent me to search the manage worlds to see if Father Winter, used to be Clement Frost but now is some other elder. He had household configurations, which I did not know that he ...was not supposed to have..... that prevented me from doing anything with him and he showed as being in a residence per manage households. but when looking in that San MyShuno, where game said he lived, he was not "physically" in any residence In any locations. I even looked in Strangerville for him..... every pack location... not there but game -"manage households" said he was. I thought that if Idisable the houselhold configurations that that would fix the problem. So I exited and restarted the game. It did not "fix itself". Bottom line : Clement Frost is gone! Have a new FW, so far my adults can "ask for present" and I will be testing children and toddlers soon, and I have really mastered the "repair my game" and such on the EA app, if you can call that a good thing! 🤣
