HSY: cannot join teen at school

Sims 4 HSY: I cannot join the teen at school. I have no mods or CC and even used Origin to fix/ uninstall all of the game packs and reinstall them. It still does this. I own every pack, and have the latest patch, as well.

  • I have the exact same issue. I can't find anything about it online either. It's surely happening more than just us? 

    I've done all the same as you, too.

  • Do you have the enable follow message set to on? i.e. it should look like this.

    May be an image of text that says 'HIGH SCHOOL A STUDENT Enable Follow Messages: On Vacation available: 6 days Class n 17 hours 8:00 AM 3:00 PM SMTWTFS Grade Requirements: Performance: Excellent Daily Task: Homework (Not Started)'

    Best regards,
    Jennifer

    @crunchy_gecko3 Are you playing with any mods? If so, see Crinrict’s link as some mods are causing issues with the option. If not, try repairing your game in Origin (if you play on computer using Origin).

  • @MapleSimmer I removed all mods & cleared cache before the update prior to the HSY coming out - I only used Slice of Life & a couple others so haven't added them back until the creators say they definitely work. HSY let me install at midnight & play on the release day (it said it wouldn't come out until 6pm) - could that make a difference?
    I've repaired twice.

    HI

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • ConfigOverride, if you have your own configuration files.
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
