No bottles spawning in Tartosa

In my new save, Tartosa will not spawn any of the bottles on the beach. I was looking forward to collecting these but no matter how long I'll have a sim camp out there, nothing happens. Does anyone have a fix?

  • @lavendarrain Do you use mods or custom content? If so, please test without by dragging the Mods folder to the desktop and deleting the localthumbcache file. After you test, exit without saving.

    Are you sure that you are in the right place at the right time?  To get the message in a bottle dig spots, you have to be in the bar zone (zone where the Laurents live) a bit before 4 AM.  Afaik, no dig spots spawn in the other zone, or at least, I have never found any.  I try to get there around 3:45 AM as some of the spots will spawn a little before 4.  There are 6 dig spots, 3 or each beach in that zone. 

    Hope this helps.

  • Update: In my other save they spawned normally it's just this new save where there have been absolutely none ☹️

    I'm not entirely sure what happened but I just switched households for a day to throw a wedding on the beach, and they started appearing! Now it's back to normal in my original household so I suppose it's fixed lol. Thank you for the replies!

    I am not getting any spawns for Messages in a Bottle either on my save and it is very frustrating. I got three and then there was none after that and I keep going back to hope that some appear. I don't know if it is a bug or what

    @pookilove Do you use mods or CC? If so, have you tested without? Check the note about about when they seem to spawn as well.
