How to reverse Ghost Goo Potion

@vpeterson0527, what does the Buff icon say about the Ghost Goo potion.🤔  There should be an icon for the Ghost Goo buff that looks like a beaker and says that your Sim is temporarily a ghost, and it should give a count down timer. Mine started at 4 hours.  

Also, do you use or have you ever used any Mods or Custom Content (CC)?  🤔

The icon is already gone and it said only 4 hours but my sim never turned back. 

I do not have any mods or CC

@vpeterson0527, hmmm....🤔 I think this is a bug, but it could be a glitch in your game.  Thank you for replying and answering my questions... always good to know we can rule out Mods/CC! 😉

I will have to talk with some others who might have encountered this before or who might be able to suggest something to help you.  I will get back to you...😇

@vpeterson0527, I have one suggestion... have you tried taking your glitched Sim into CAS to see if that resets him or her?🤔  It's worth a try if you haven't done it yet. 🤞

Please update us on whether this works or not! 😇

Unfortunately, it did not work. I decided to work on getting my Sims' skills up to make Ambrosia to see if it works.

I am starting to think that my sim did actually die but everything was seamless and Grim did not show up

@vpeterson0527, while I suppose it is possible that your Sim really died, I still think the ghost state is just stuck.  🤨  I' have since heard of this happening before but the solution may no longer be working. 

I talked to a few other helpers and one of them suggest eating ambrosia (which is what you have decided to try).. But that made me think that if you have Realm of Magic, there is a spell in the Untamed Magic category called Dedeathify that can restore a ghost to its physical form,  This is a spell for a Master Spellcaster.  It is worth a try if you have the Realm of Magic Game Pack.😉 

You can also try to reset your Sim (although this usually is used when your Sim is physically stuck somewhere, it can't hurt to try).  Open the cheat box by pressing "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" at the same time. Then in the box type "resetsim FirstName LastName" (without the  quotes and press "Enter".  So if your Sim is Bella Goth you would type "resetsim Bella Goth" and press "Enter". 😉

You can also try deleting some cache files that your game doesn't need.  For more about that , here is a link: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/delete-cache-files/

I have some more ideas (this is in reference to where above I stated that some other people have had this happen but the solution may no longer be working), but those solutions are a little bit more complicated . So as not to overwhelm you, I will let you try these first! 🙂

Thank you for bearing with us while we try to solve your problem! 😇  Please keep us updated as to what happens as you try to fix your Sim! 

@Psychotps, I've used the Ghost Goo recently with no problems but it seems that some people in the past had problems with it if they traveled while a ghost or went to work while a ghost.  🤨  I was not able to replicate @vpeterson0527 , experience, but I didn't have my Sim travel while in the ghost state. :ealight_bulk:  So that might be why my Ghost Goo was fine but yours and @vpeterson0527 's weren't! 🤔

@vpeterson0527, I'm going to try to replicate this , but this time I will have my Sim travel!  I hope my Ghost Goo fails! 🤞

@vpeterson0527, sadly I was not able to replicate your problem in my game. ☹️ I used the Ghost Goo 4 times (7 if you count the times the goo just gave my Sim a bad moodlet without turning him into a ghost) but in each case he became normal after the 4 hours were up.  2 of the times I had him travel, hoping to trigger an older bug with the Ghost Goo.  I took him to the museum in San MyShuno and the other time I let him go to work and didn't join him there (he's a scientist so he has that option). 

I'm sorry I wasn't able to duplicate your experience. 😞

Did any of the extra suggestions help you?🤔  Please update us! 😇
