Re: it says that i dont have beds but i have more than enough beds to get a roommate

@adhamturista, the counting is a little weird on this. You need to have a bed per person (even if you have 2 married Sims, they each need their own bed) , plus any toddlers or pets or Butlers you have each need their own adult bed … and then you need the extra bed(s) for any roommates. 😞  Here is a Bug Report on this topic. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-DU-CD-Room-Mate-Ad-Available-Beds-not-properly-counting/td-p/8451286

The good news is that you can delete some of the beds once you assign all the new roommates to their beds (so you can get rid of any for pets, toddlers, and the extra beds if you have couples that would normally sleep in one bed).  🙂

And hopefully they will fix this bug soon! 🤞

    @adhamturista Do you have Mods or CC? Do you have any Servos? I was just thinking that you may need a bed for them for the ad also since they are considered as a member of the household. I would recommend that you add your information to this bug report on the subject, as yours seems a bit different than the issues I read that others are having, so the information may be useful for that purpose when the gurus are working on a fix. Then you can also 'me too' the bug report, which helps. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-DU-CD-Room-Mate-Ad-Available-Beds-not-properly-counting/td-p/8451286

    @adhamturista Can you please try the following so we can check if the CC is effecting this issue?

    • Exit your game.
    • Move your Mods folder to your desktop. (Do not delete it – save this for later.)
    • Restart the game so that it will recreate a new, fresh Mods folder. Do not re-add your Mods/CC, but instead enter the game and begin a new, vanilla (no Mods/CC) game. Enter that new, vanilla game-save to confirm if the issues are gone. Now exit your game.

    If that fixed the issue, now you need to troubleshoot your Mods/CC to find which Mods/CC are causing the issue. Use the 50/50 method as follows:

    • Divide your Mods/CC from the folder on your desktop in half.
    • Add one of the halves back into the game’s Mods folder. Now re-start the game and see if the issue is still gone in the vanilla/new game-save you made.
    • If the issue did not re-appear with those added Mods/CC you can try adding the 2nd half from the desktop. If the issues did re-appear, try only adding half of those mods and see if the issue is present in the game...
    • Continue in this pattern dividing the folders’ contents in half then half again as needed to eliminate in groupings which Mods/CC are causing the issue.

    Once you find the Mods/CC that are causing the issues, check with the Mod/CC creators for updates that may fix the issues. Note: Do not re-add the old config file from the old mods folder, as it is possible for it to have become corrupted also.

  • Hey.

    I found out that pets count towards the bed use. I have two cats in addition to my sim, and apparently i need a full bed for each of them. -_-
