Re: Sims 4 BFF option not there

Oh my god. For reasons unknown I can click become best friends with my 5-star celebrity friend but not the sim I want to!! This is progress though so I’m marking this as solved!

  • She has Romantic, Cheerful and Neat

    And the sim I’m trying to get her to be BFFs with for the Soulmate aspiration is:

    Perfectionist, Jealous, and Ambitious

    @TactfulTay179 So I tried with two Sims with those traits and had no issues becoming bffs.

    Wonder why it's not working for you.
  • Yeah I have no idea. Thing of it is, the teenage sim who is friends with that cute teen from Mt. whatever they’re bffs and she has two of the three traits. And then since it would let me be BFFs with a 5 star celebrity sim I was fully friends with but not her current bf it was weird? Maybe in one of these patches it’ll be fixed and it’s just a weird kink 

  • I didn’t actually click the option, I just noticed the option was available for that specific sim. I’m currently on the soulmate aspiration which is “marry BFF” so if I can’t be BFFs with the non-celebrity I’m trying to best friend, I’ll probably just cheat through the aspiration

    @TactfulTay179 I'm a bit confused about a remark you made in your last post and wonder if I misunderstood your issue: You are NOT currently already BFF with that Sim you want to be BFF with and just have issues with the aspiration fulfilling ?

    Does your Sim have a current BFF at all (this shouldn't matter since you can switch bff now but it still would be interesting info)
  • Sorry! She was able to be BFFs with a random person so I did that to complete the worlds friendliest person aspiration or whatever it is. And now I’m on soulmate and I need her to be BFFs with her boyfriend but the option doesn’t show for either sim until I discovered I could be BFFs with the 5-star celebrity with the female sim

    @TactfulTay179 OK. then I understood correctly the first time.

    Do they live in the same household ? Have you tried both ways ?
  • Yes they do and yes I have :/. He is Ambitious, Perfectionist, and Jealous oh my god…he is me

  • Idk how to upload them! They weren’t mine to begin with, I uploaded cuz one of them had max charisma! I forget what the household name was under!

    @TactfulTay179 you can do so from CAS. Load them to CAS and then there's a button to load in the gallery.

    I understand that you don't want to re-upload other people's Sims but if you give credit and say it's for testing something, it's shouldn't be a problem. You can remove them once I downloaded
  • I am so embaressed to say I did not understand how to upload them for the past couple of days or so. I'm so ashamed; if you could see my social panel, I would have the embaressed moodlet. Regardless I reread your message and figured out what you meant and I uploaded them under my profile (same as my username) under Scott (Test) I'm trying to get the adults BFFs

    @TactfulTay179 Sorry it took so long. The pack release was a bit crazy :D

    Had to renew their friendship but once I was almost on top, the BFF options showed up. Don't know why it's not working in your save. Doesnt' seem to be the save as such.
  • You’re totally fine, I understand!! And yeah idk. Especially how it was an option for the celebrity sim I’ll probably just cheat my way through the aspiration since it’s kinda a minor household anyway! 🙂
