Sims 4 Paranormal Stuff Pack- No Guidry, Helping Hand Unresponsive

It's been more than the second night and still no Guidry. I read the Helping Hand has the ability to disable and enable his visits. Any Helping Hand I place on the lot is unresponsive. I've tried debugging the item to no avail. I also read that Guidry may be summoned from a non-huanted lot using the seance table. This hasn't worked either.

    You mean Haunted House lot type and after 9:00 PM? I read it of course. ☹️

    @Nyuszo90 

    You talk about summoning Guidry from the table. However the Seance table do not have such an option. Are you using a mod that gives you this functionality? If so that is likely why it is broken. Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then start a new game.game.

    Now I completely lost. I don’t have any mods. Not even custom contents.

    Guidry doesn’t show up after 9:00 pm the hand is unresponsive all day and yes, I have an option on medium skill level 5 to summon Guidry. But I don’t have the option to ask the questions from him. He’s just a simple ghost...

    You are not confusing the Seance circle you can create at level 5 Medium skill with the Seance table? The former do have an option to summon Guidry.

    Please make absolutely sure that Lot type is set as in the image.

    Hi jpkarlsen,

    Thank you very much for taking time answering me. Possibly the problem was with the saved game. I tried with a new game and here it works as it should.

    I was hoping I don’t have to drop my previous game after buying a new pack and was waiting for an update what would help.

  • Hi there,

    I am not sure if you have solved the problem yet but I had this problem and was able to fix it. I removed my saves from the game and copied them into a different folder. I then repaired the game, opened it without the saves. After closing the game I moved my saves back. When I reopened my world, I noticed that the lot I was playing on was residential even though when I downloaded it from the gallery I made sure the lot was a Haunted House Residential, so I changed it and then Guidry turned up two days after and the Helping Hand became responsive. I am not sure which of the things I did fixed it but you can give it a try.

    Hope this helps if the problem is not resolved!

  • Guys your sim has to be a purple glow talk to the spectrums haunting your house and your medium level mine was 3 and i communicated with the ghosts using the medium table 

    your sim has to be a purple glow use the table and communicate with the spectrums
