Sim can't film an emotional vlog

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.107.151.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansion packs: growing together, high school years, snowy escape, discover university, island living, get famous, seasons, cats & dogs, city living, get together, get to work Game packs: my wedding stories, dream home decorator, realm of magic, strangerville, jungle adventure, parenthood, dine out, spa day, outdoor retreat Stuff packs: tiny living, my first pet, laundry day, toddler, fitness, backyard, kids room, romantic garden, movie hangout, spooky, cool kitchen, perfect patio, luxury party Kits: desert luxe, blooming rooms, industrial loft, fashion street
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? ?
What happens when the bug occurs? My Sim who I want to become famous while vlogging, cannot make an emotional vlog with any of the emotions. Her parents and her sister can make an emotional vlog, but when I try it with her, the option to film the vlog for her current emotion doesn't show up.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the option to film an emotional vlog, like a confident or angry vlog.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

  • Okay so I was able to load into my game without any mods and now my Sim is able to film a cheerful vlog, so I am pretty sure it is because of my mods. Thank you for your help!!

    I wanted to test it without mods, so I dragged my mods folder onto my desktop, but when I tried playing again, the loading screen got stuck while loading in my household, so I couldn't see if it works without mods. And when I add my mods back into my sims folder, my game launches, so that is also really weird. And no, the Sim is not an occult. Her sister is a mermaid, but she can film an emotional vlog.

    The name is: Broken Sofia Keli'i. The teen with brown hair is the one that can't film an emotional vlog. Do check the box with mods.

    @mirthexvg Do you use any custom items that give milestones ? If so, that could account for the endless loading you get without mods/cc.

    I'll check her out.

    EDIT: Is it any emotion ? I was able to make a confident video with both teens. Both are bald but I'm guessing Sofia is the broken one ? One of your Sims does have an issue with broken milestones though so it could be mods.

    Get the CC/mod object fix from here to see if that helps with anyhting: https://www.patreon.com/posts/mod-milestone-81237568

    If not, try with just this mod in to fix the milestones and see if it works then.

    I have absolutely no idea if I have any custom items that give milestones. I don't think so? Is that possible with mods? I downloaded that mod, but I don't think anything happened in my game. I also don't really understand how it works and what it does. And yes it is with any emotion and Sofia is the broken one.

    @mirthexvg Yes, like if you downloaded a cc playmat or something of that kind.

    So plop in that mod and see if it starts working.

    Moving this to mods/cc. Maybe someone there knows what could be causing the issue,

    @mirthexvg There are a number of different mods that affect emotional buffs that could be interfering. I'd suggest starting to narrow this down by testing with all your mods except custom traits, preferences, ambitions, and the like. We might be able to solve this without doing a full 50-50 on your folder.
