Quit scrapping already finished paintings!

Sounds like a bug...? My primary artist never scraps finished paintings and I sold them all for fame/money. It's how she got to 4 star fame status.

I think I've had this happen too. I'll see the sim working on a painting and when I go back to them they are working on a different painting and the first one is no where to be found.

Ya, I watch my Sim finish a painting and then scrap it and start a new one. Frustrating when you are playing without cheats and are using painting as your way to make money.

I've never had this happen. A finished painting remains on the easel until I scrap, frame, list on Plopsy, or sell it.

I've also experienced this bug. I couldn't believe it. I'm so fed up with all the bugs in this game.

Has any checked to see if it has been reported?

Honestly I think it's pointless. I mean I'm still experiencing bugs that have been around for years.

This should be pretty easy for you to stop. Either turn off autonomy or put something else in her queue that makes her walk away from the easel when she finishes painting. I've had lots of painters, including the Sim I've been playing most recently, and I've never seen this happen but I wouldn't allow it to happen more than once or twice. After that, I'd take steps to prevent it.

I have never had this bug happen, with mods ( or vanilla, if I remember correctly) . I currently only use one mod that affects paintings, and it should not do that.

When my sim finishes the painting, where ever they are painting, it always stays in easel. Even when my sim paints in communitylot, like in some areas of Windenburg or San Myshuno ( NOT meaning festivals) , the painting is still there even simweeks later, if I have forgot to sell it.

Might still be a mod, as it has been some time when I have played vanilla :)

I have several easels placed outside my museum/art center and I love to visit and see what random sims have painted. :)
