[HSY] My sim can't go to prom (booted back to map)

When I clicked 'travel to prom', it always took me to the map of residential worlds. I tried traveling to the auditorium, but it took me to the map again.

My game is up to date.

I have tried repairing the game twice.

I also tried removing all mods, but it still didn't work.

My sims can only travel to the auditorium when there is no event.

Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

  • Hi @nuggetsimmer2012 

    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.

  • Hi @crinrict 

    I tried your suggestion above as well as many other suggestions and in assorted combinations (disabling get famous, turning off aging ect). Still having the same problem. My sim went to about 4 proms with no problem before (he's been a teen for a long time) only now am i having this problem. Any other suggestions?

    Thanks.

    @evilrobopotato Do you have an error when you're booted back to the map ? Usually it's something about the lot, like if you're using custom food and that didn't get cleaned up properly.

    Can you load the lot in build mode ? Go there without a prom ?
  • @crinrict, I don’t get any error message and I don’t get taken to the map. When I click the go to prom option when it pops up nothing at all happens. My sims just sits there and goes on with his life. Most the time it’s not even in the calendar (I did manage to get it to show in the calendar while doing my own troubleshooting, but didn’t actually solve the problem). And when I travel there manually the auditorium is empty and not set up for prom. Do you think it’s something to do with the lot? I could try placing a fresh one off the gallery or something?!

  • Did you. Figure this out? I just got that issue now ever since I downloaded the growing together update
