Holiday on Repeat
A while back, I created a holiday that was right after New Years Eve. It was New Years Day; a custom holiday. The holidays passed and was great, but then weird stuff started to happen. It took me a w...
Hi guys! I'm sorry I haven't seen your replies until recently. I'm still having this issue with my game unfortunately. I've tried removing my localthumbcache file, removing the Mods folder, AND repairing the game once again. Still didn't do anything. I've tried reverting to a save that was before I made the custom holiday, and oddly enough, the same problem occurred. It didn't happen when I made an entirely new save, however.
I saw one person post that there were holiday glitches reported when people have changed the game speed. That actually rings a bell for me, since before creating the new holiday, I do remember using MC Command Center to make the days longer. I shortly changed the game speed back to the default though, since the days were going way too slow for me. I ended up making "New Years Day" way later, after I've already overwritten all my older saves.
I hope my save files aren't permanently corrupted, although that seems be the case right now. 😢
created an account just to let you know this exact thing happened to me too with winterfest!! it corrupted all of my saves so i'll have to start over ): hopefully this is something MCCC can fix in the future!!
@cryinggcats If you haven't already it would be a good idea to bring your issue to the creator of the mentioned mod for confirmation of the bug, and if so, a potential fix.
Edit: This is the only bug report I can find that fits the theme: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-S-Calendar-Doesn-t-Change-with-Current-Season/m-p/6914575
If no mods are installed the issue is with the game, so a Me Too and some attention to that thread might make the Sims Team react to it.
There are of course other bug reports, here is the full list of tagged bug reports to look through for anyone with an interest and some time on their hands:

Untagged yet to be determined 'open' bugs, are not on the list. Those will be found looking through the first pages of the bug report section. I can't find where notifications are posted about when the list is updated. But it is allowed to just send a bug report directly to the SimGurus on twitter for example.
