Is there any way to restore family relations after new save?

Is there any way to restore family relationships after starting a new save and deleting the old one?
I had to delete the old save because it was buggy and sluggish even tho I dont have script mods and I have a good PC
But the problem is I started a fresh new save and out the old households i saved in the new save..
It seems the household doesn't recognize their father maybe bcus he was living in another apartment not with his girlfriend and his two teen sons

I tried the cas.fulledit cheat but doesn't work it still wont let me modify "existing relationships"
I tried the relationship.add_bit cheat but doesn't work too
I even tried to window restore but it doesn't restore documents sadly..
When deleting a save from sims 4 sadly its deleted permenatly not directly to recycle bin..

Is there any way to make them identify that he's their father ?
I'm afraid of using MCC I didn't start a new save just wanting to break my game again..

  • You can use MCCC just to help restore relationships and then remove it. I'm not sure why cas.fulleditmode wouldn't work for that, though, if they're in the same household :(
  • You could save all the affected sims to your library, create a new household with all of them and you should be able to edit their relationships while you're doing that. Then you could split them up again and replace the old ones with the new ones. Of course doing this is like adding new sims to your game, they won't maintain any other friendships they had in your save.
