Hi @Vampiiriic Please test on a clean folder: Exit Sims 4 then drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop. Launch Sims 4 and reset your Options. Now start a new save and see how that is. If it works, exit, copy your save file from the desktop into the new folder, and test that.
Hi there! I went ahead and moved the whole Sims 4 folder to my desktop then relaunched. It basically started up like I never played the game before (all my saves weren't there etc.) which I assume is normal. I then made a new save as you said, and the first thing the sim did was go and read over and over again. So I'm afraid this didn't work. ☹️
@Vampiiriic Yes, that's normal! Once you know your game is working "clean" you can put all the contents of the old folders back in the new ones.
Let's try one more thing for the reading obsession: a Game Repair. If that doesn't help, I'm happy to suggest mods that will stop the reading. But also, if it still doesn't stop, keep a copy of that save and make a bug report.
I'm afraid I tried repairing the game as well! When I try to do it through Origin/EA the option to repair the game doesn't even appear, and I assume that's because I downloaded it via Steam. So, I went ahead and did the Steam equivalent of a repair, but still that didn't work.
I'll gladly take a look at those mods though! The only problem is there's other bugs besides just the reading: my sims are sometimes unresponsive to commands, will sit before completing an action, or will stand for long periods of time not doing anything.
@Vampiiriic I'd suggest starting with Chingyu's Less Obsession. I think it includes a file for less reading. It might be enough for your bug there.
