[1.121/Royalty] Sim Picker (travel by phone etc.) fails; LE generated

I have just bought the new pack and I have updated all mods and cc (to my knowledge) and this has only started today. When i try click travel on the phone nothing happens and I get a report saying this :

Any ideas what may be causing this? I have repaired game and checked for broken mods.

  • Sim Picker functions (e.g., travelling) failing with the Royalty EP is mod-related.

    With the Royalty EP (and possibly without but so far, not in testing), travelling and other options that pull up a Sim Picker fail with some custom career mods. Note this scenario:

    • One Sim is in a custom career 
    • A different Sim attempts an action that produces a "Sim Picker" panel — travelling by phone, posting to someone on Social Bunny, etc. 
    • The action fails and an LE is produced.
    • If you don't have Better Exceptions installed, the LE includes "ui_dialog_picker.py" and "cpp_message".
    • If you do have BE installed, you get a "cpp_message" error. 

     

    Not all custom careers are affected, but there are likely a lot of them, so please use the lists in Broken and Updated Mods and CC for now. Presume that any custom career updated before Feb. 14 (when modders started figuring this issue out) might be broken; I'll be adding notes. Presume that any career cleared as compatible isn't; I'll be adding notes there too.

    Most gigs/odd jobs mods are not affected.

    Some custom traits might also be affected. We're working on figuring that out.

  • I have the same issue. I'm gonna check through my Adeepindigo mods, because without them it seems to work...?

    Do you have Pandasama Childbirth mod? That's what was causing mine, may be because of the nursing career

    Hi, I had to remove certain mods then I worked out it was Pandasama Childbirth Mod - must be because of the nursing career?
