Blast from the Past Week 3 Pep Talk Not Showing

Just started the "On the Hunt" part of this week's event, and the first task says to give yourself a pep talk in the mirror.  When looking at any walkthrough, it shows an option with the special icon next to it when you click on the mirror, but that doesn't show up for me.  I've tried making my sims sad or embarrassed to give myself the pep talk option, but the task doesn't complete when I do that either.  I've restarted, repaired the game, tried with a new save, moved mods, etc. but it still won't show up.

  • I moved my mods folder out (deleted localthumbcache) and opened a new vanilla save. I was able to do it then.

  • Is anyone in this thread not using mods/cc ? Anyone living in an apartement ?

    I had no issues doing it on my mirror.

  • Thank you for posting this. I was having the same issue and pulling my mod folder out fixed it. I was able to finish week 3’s tasks. 

  • Going to move this to the mods forum as it looks to be mod related.

    Please post if you don't use any mods/cc.

  • You need a free standing full length mirror! A small bathroom mirror won't work. You also don't have to be any emotion when you do it. THIS IS THE SOLUTION!!!!!!

  • I hate to say it, but I tried what (Ladybug_COB ) did and it worked. I noticed that since each objective has the "blast from the past icon" on it, just doing the task won't allow you to move forward. I took out my moods folder and opened the game with a new save (no mods) and I was able to complete the task for week 3.
