Anyone else getting these issues?

Hey again everyone!

So I've created a Sim who is a Doctor. I've installed The Sims 4 Get Famous Expansion Pack and everything seems fine until I've noticed that the Expansion Pack doesn't collaborate well with Get to Work.

Here is what I mean.
My Surgeon Sim received the opportunity to handle an Outbreak over at one of the bouncer guarded celebrity lots in Del Sol Valley.
Unfortunately, my doctor couldn't treat any of the fainted Sims. Couldn't go past the bouncer nor just make my way to the patient and treat them.
The option is available, but it leads to no results.
I was sitting there like come on! I'm a doctor! There are unconscious Sims in there! Let me through! This is an emergency!
Nope. Don't got the money nor the fame. Can't let you in.
Well fine then! Guess I'm not rich and famous enough to treat my possibly dying patients. Guess I'll just head back to the hospital.
It was that day when my Sim knew... he won't get a promotion any time soon.

So yeah. There are certain areas and conditions in Get Famous that conflict with the careers from Get to Work.

Plus, I've noticed that Vampires are suffering from a few bugs.
Like when I try to get my Vampire Sim to earn extra points, the bar just freezes once it reaches to the max. So my vampire can't earn anymore points.
Plus, once I select a perk that has two or more tiers, I can't select the extra tier to that perk! Guess my vampire won't be fully resistant to the sun anymore or any time soon.
I read somewhere that there is a mod that patches that, but I don't know where. So maybe one of you know where I can find this mod.

Hopefully the team can patch these issues soon.

As always,

Thank you for reading my post.

    Sounds like another little "oopsies" so typical for this game. The vampire perk point issue has been around for some time now, but I think it's actually intentional. But correct me if I'm wrong.

    Here is a link to a mod: http://modthesims.info/d/621850/vampires-bug-fix.html

    It seems as though they don't have a team that checks for playability conflicts between packs, before they release them. Instead they'll patch it, and in doing so, probably break something else.
  • Why do something right the first time? That would mean proper planning, careful execution, and diligent testing.
  • 1. there is a workaround if you dont have a problem playing with cheats, by using testingcheats true, shift-click to area that you are not supposed to enter normaly and teleport to it.
    2. Yup, it's a known bug, unable to select the next tier usually happened after using draugh of configuration, I didn't remember how i fixed it but I guess i was just restarting the game and am able to pick the next tier, as for the unable to progress after maxing out the bar, there is a mod that fixed it http://modthesims.info/d/621850/vampires-bug-fix.html

    Correct me if I'm wrong but that points to the mod as the only solution to keep it fixed.
