    Yes, since yesterday's update, my sims can't get married, even though they're engaged and deeply in love.  They can elope, but any planning wedding events are padlocked.  Please help before my sims fall out of love while we wait for the wedding pack, which I suspect is the culprit.  Can anyone confirm?  Thank you.  🙂

    Just add my sims can't conceive - male/female relationship! No wedding, no babie, nothing!  Will test on other sims and report back.

  • After the update I thought I was the only one who’s game was glitching really bad. In the upper left corner where the event time goes there’s been 4 different even icons and when you click on them it just says text here and then there’s a weird almost ekg like line moving across and then the timer just keeps going round and round lol and you can’t click out of it, you have to hit the ESC button and then all of your sims information that’s usually at the bottom disappears and you can’t command your sims to do anything….I wish they would fix it!!!!

  • Yes exactly I couldn't get the pictures to attach, But I hope it actually gets fixed, I finally got my two sims engaged and when I went to plan a event nothing popped up I was so annoyed by it.

    Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

  • @jpkarlsen I finally did that today and I checked it on a new save file and it was fine but when I went to go into the save file where I was getting my two sims married it was still glitching like before idk what is wrong specifically if its just the update glitching it or something in that save file.
