I have a problem with two Sims. They are related (mother and daugther) but they do not appear on each other family tree. All the other relationships, including the one between the mom and her son, are shown on my Sims family trees, so, I do not understand why this specific link is missing. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Note that I am playing with some CCs, and the MCCC but I doubt this is the cause of my issue.
Ah sorry, perhaps that is or was a bug in my own game then, that I kept losing relationships when the ages overlapped. It’s been a while since I let them do so.
Nana_FE_2004 Hope it all works out - let us know if you have any further issues with the relationship!
Thank you very much, I will try that! Hope it will works!
PipMenace, the MCCC allows me to not age my Sims. The mother is an adult, and the daughter a young adult. But I think I understand the problem. I set up their relationship after creating the mom (I know, it's weird, but it works with her son and her parents, so I don't know why it doesn't with her daughter)
Nana_FE_2004 The game does this on occasion for some players. You might be able to fix this in CAS if you use the cas.fulleditmode cheat before entering CAS then resetting the family relationship. But that way is really hit and miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. So, I find it best and easier to use the MCCC relationships menu option to reset relationships when they go off the rails like in your case.
PipMenace Sorry, but you're not quite right. Even when a teen ages up to young adult, the relationship remains with both parent and child now young adult. The relationship in the family tree will show correctly as well as the life stage labels on the sims in the family tree displaying the correct life stage, not disappear as has happened here.. A same life stage parent/child relationship is possible if the child grows up in game. It might be unlikely if you let kids go through every day of all life stages. But for those who use a cake to manually age up the kids before the end of the early life stages normally, you can easily get a kid up to young adult before the parents age to adult so you can end up with parents and kids both as young adults. That said, if you have that happen and have what this OP has had happen and losing the relationship connection (i.e. mother and daughter are both in the same stage) as well, you can't correct it in CAS as CAS won't let you. So, then you have to reset the age of one or the other so they are in different life stages (FWIW, I would age the mother to adult, particularly if she has any discovery traits), then reset the mother/daughter relationship, then age the mother back to young adult. Now, I always use MCCC to reset relationships as I find it easier. CAS is not involved at all, you just click on one of the affected sims in live mode, then use the MCCC Relationship menu option to change the relationship. If you have grandparents, you'll need to reset the relationship bits for them too and sometimes other extended family members too. The only drawback is when you have same sex parents. MCCC will only let you set one mother/one father. It will not let you set two mothers/fathers. So, you either have to live with it or try to change those in CAS.
Hope this helps.
Do you let your sims age normally, or on your own timeline? Is it possible the daughter’s age has been allowed to catch up with the mother’s? They can’t have the mother-daughter relationship if they’re the same age.
