Hello,
I have been using the modifyrelationship cheat code for quite a while now. I have never had an issue with it. Now every time I try to use it, I get "could not convert string to attach" even though I'm typing the entire cheat and the names correctly? I don't know if anyone's had this issue recently. No, these people have not been released to the Netherworld. They still exist in the family tree.
No, the names do not have any special characters. I would understand if that were the case.
It's for all Sims, even the ones who are still alive and good friends with my Sim.
They are ghosts, but I tried one that was alive as well to test if it was just that.
I experienced this once because I was trying to get my Sim to have a relationship with Akira Kibo (Darling Walsh can eff herself up haha) but I couldn't cheat my way through it because Akira Kibo causes "could not convert string to attach"
So I did it the other way around and cheated through Akira Kibo.
It happened three months ago though and I haven't tried using the cheat with Akira again (he's still single in my game tho! haha)...
I mean I kinda forgot all about this issue until I saw this thread so might as well relay my experience.

No, I have not tried with IDs.

@thatcherjoe50And testingcheats is enabled as well (although that shouldn't give you the message) ?
Could you test if it's related to the save game or also happens on a new one ?
Can you try with SimID ? Use the cheat: sims.get_sim_id_by_name <firstname> <lastName> to get the id
Yes, testingcheats is on.
I could test a new save real quick.
It does not let me use the ID.
