Mark of Edith won't go away - ruining my Sim's life!

Hi all,

So my Sim went on a mission for her aspiration (Ghost Historian) and came back with the Mark of Edith. Everything was fine for a little while then Bam - whenever another Sim tries to interact with her, up comes the Attempt To Communicate menu.

She shrieks at people (  great fun at parties, NOT) can't have woohoo ( her husband has left her for another Sim) she can't interact with animals (she was a championship level rider but could not ride or look after the horse so the horse has gone)...you get the picture. 

I went to Edith, asked for the mark again which should revers the process. Nope. It's gone from her trait list but her miserable existence is unchanged. I have tried the trait code traits.remove_trait MarkOfEdith and no luck there either. I have run a repair on my game five times in 48 hours.

I have put a tremendous amount of time and effort into her and I will be very upset if it was all for nothing.

Does anyone out there know how I can lift this curse from her?

Help us Obi Wan, you're our only hope...

    Thank you, my friend - much appreciated. I have cultivated this Sim since birth - got View To A Skill with her. Then whammo. She will continue to achieve quests and is currently in Strangerville - but she has lost her family, friends, inventory, marriage, her entire personal past. Despite being a riding champion, she can't get on a horse anymore. She must be the only single at Love Highland who got nada. The idea of being multigenerational has gone out the metaphorical window. Over 1000 hours. Getting really frustrated now. I have tried every possible solution I found on the internet. I just hope EA can fix this. I am so very sorry that you have been in a similar position - it does indeed suck. Big time.

  • That sucks. I don’t know how to help but I know what it’s like to put such work into a sim and then you have to restart. I hope you can get this resolved.
