My main sim can't form new relationships. He is a celebrity so he can greet fans to unlock the interactions menu but can't introduce self. The friendship bar doesn't move at all. Even the child he just had doesn't know him despite any interactions. I have taken out all my cc & repaired the game & still no change. Thank you for the helo in advance!

@MinajSimmerr Hello! That's really frustrating. You mentioned taking out CC. Do you also have mods installed? If so, try taking those out as well. Also, delete the localthumbcache.package file located in the Documents / Electronic Arts / The Sims 4 folder before opening the game for testing.
Just to clarify, you aren't seeing any introduction options at all. Is that correct? One of my current played sims is a 5 star celebrity and he does have some options for introductions though they do change and aren't like other sims. Would you mind sharing a screen grab of the options you do see?
Here is an example of what I see for my celebrity sim, clicking on a sim he doesn't know.
When I click More Choices...
And then click Friendly...
I get a couple more intro options. Btw, "respectful" is from Snowy Escape and "polite" is from Parenthood, so you won't see those if you don't have those packs.
Hey! Thank you so much for your help. This is what I see. And yes, i took out both mods & cc.
@MinajSimmerr Thanks for sharing those screen grabs! Once you took out the mods/CC did you also delete the localthumbcache.package file located in the Documents / Electronic Arts / The Sims 4 folder before opening the game for testing?
In the screen grabs you shared, I see that your sim is celebrating a Halloween-like holiday. Are you also not seeing intro options on non-holidays? Not that it should matter, but I'm just trying to rule out other factors.
Of course! And yes I did remove that & deleted all other cache. And yes even on non-holidays I can only do celebrity interactions
@MinajSimmerr Okay. Thanks so much for the information! This is a real head-scratcher because I'm not able to replicate the issue. I know you said you already tried a game repair but I wonder if you could try to repair the game again. Sometimes these issues can be fixed with more than one or multiple repairs. In the meantime, I will do some more research and also check with friends to see if there is something I'm missing.
@MinajSimmerr Could you check your Documents > Electronic Arts > saves folder for any mod related folders? Perhaps there may be other folders that retain mod-related data? Maybe check all your EA folders and move out anything that appears to be mod-related to your desktop before testing the game again.
Okay thank you so much I will repair it again now
Yup I had two mod related folders, i took them out.. I'm repairing my game & trying again now
Tried repairing & still no ): It is kind of weird though, I don't have wicked w***** or any mods installed, but when i open my household there are about six sims outside the house that are all named " w***** wh*ms do not remove".
