Re: sim keep doing whatever they want

Hi @97tigercindy, I moved your thread to this section since it's the appropriate language.

After you removed the CC, did you try to repair the game as well?

  • Hi @EA_LeonSK 

    I just tried repairing the game but nothing changed, I made the sim study archeology but as soon as they sit down they stopped and proceeded to do other things.

    I forgot to mention that the only time, so far, that they do exactly want I want is when they have nothing around (like when they have finished a lesson and are standing outside the building) even if, sometimes, they start using the future cube (that they had only once in the inventory and I sold immediately it but it keeps appearing... I've sold dozens of these things but they keep pulling out another one from who knows where...)

    Ps: sorry if my English is not the best, it's not my first language... obviously xD

    It's Eco pack's fault. When you start a new game, before you even settle your family on a lot, you will choose the world. In this option, enter the game options and disable sims NPC voting.
    Unfortunately, turning off this option after the family has settled on the lot will not help and nothing will help..Better to save your family to the library and start a new game with them

    I don't work for EA
  • Hi @kreatora,

    I agree with you that is Eco pack's fault... I followed your instructions but the sim keeps doing anything but the things I want... the future cubes keep on appearing in the inventory, they want to play violin, bake a cake and so on...

    I also disable the second option for the eco pack just to try and as you might guess it's still the same...

    I guess I have to bear these things or start with another family (hoping that this doesn't happen again)... I don't want to uninstall the pack since I've spent money on it but it seems like I have no other options...

    Thanks anyway 🙂

    You can't fix it in the current save. All you can do is save the family to the library and start a new game, And in this new game when you choose a world you have to go to the game options and disable NPC voting. If you do it AFTER settling the family on the lot, it will be too late,

    I have this same problem and using my saved sims and lot in a new world with eco disabled didn't solve the problem. It's like my sims and lot was corrupted by eco lifystyle, uploading and downloading into a new world didn't help me.  It's a game breaking pack that needs to be patched asap. 

  • @kreatora, as I said before, I followed your instructions to the letter, I even tried at least 3 times, once after choosing the season and the town but before the lot, then before choosing the town and at last before choosing the season (every time with a different save) and I keep having the same issue.

    Unlike @Spektir I only saved the sim and not the lot just to be sure but it doesn't resolve anything... 

    I agree with Spektir about the pack needing to be patched...

    However thanks for the help 🙂
