Is There A Way to Fix A Sim That's Corrupted? (And, No, I'm Not Talking About Morally Bankrupt)
Hi, please forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong forum.
I have been having a few issues with an updated mod and sought help through the mod creator's discord. After a time, three of us figured out that it wasn't the mod malfunctioning so much as it was my game save that was corrupt. So, I created a brand new game save and made a new copy of the same family. Only to find the same issue cropping up. In all fairness, I was having three problems, two of which weren't problems any more. Just the crucial gameplay part of this mod.
I created a new Sim in a new game save and ran a few tests, that checked out. Then I tried the same technique in the previous game save and it didn't work, even though the Sim was also brand new.
I again, sought help over at Discord. Word came back that it's likely the Sim, itself. I'm crestfallen, to say the least. I first recreated him from Sims3 and brought him into Sims4. So, I went back to a copy of him from my library and installed him anew into a brand new game save. All seemed well until he reached his teen hood. He was a Notable Newcomer and is pushing the edge of Rising Star. In the mod I'm using that augments GF, he's made it to Superstar and can now perform concerts — except that he can't as the original malfunction won't allow it. (Basically, I'm almost back to where I started — again!)
To learn that it's my Sim, is devastating. Is there a way to correct this problem, or should I just hang it up and recreated him from scratch in CAS?
Please, and thank you, in advance.
