the more choices video station

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Steam-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? 1.90.358.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All current expansions, game packs, and stuff packs.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try to use any The More Choices Video Station.
What happens when the bug occurs? When I direct my Sim to use The More Choices Video Station the Sim gets the cannot path thought bubble and waves their arms, cancelling the action. It does not matter if you tell the Sim to sit in the chair in front of the video station or to do any of the interactions that require sitting in the chair, the Sim simply will not sit and cancels all interactions. I tried with both the chair purchased with the station and with a bunch of different chairs. All provide the same issue.
What do you expect to see? My Sim should have sat at in the chair and used the station to do all of the seated interactions.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

The Sim is able to record a new video without issues because it is standing at the station and not using the chair.

    Yes that is correct.

    Last time I played (a few weeks ago) this item was working just fine, it was just a few minutes ago I was trying out one of the new careers and ran into this issue.

    I tried giving a new Sim this video station and also tried loading a lot where it was already placed. Both run into the same issue.

    @wordcobbler I tried this now with both the pack installed and with it disabled and it worked fine for me.

    Could you try selling yours and getting a new one ?

    @crinrict Originally I had tried with both a newly purchased station and one that already existed in a different household.

    I cleared my cache files and tried with the existing placed station and today this worked no problems.

  • The more choices video station has lost all its functionality as I try and perform interactions with sims on it, the message bubble comes up other the sim saying cannot do this, its frustrating as i cannot do vlogs or streams in the game, some options like make a vlog was usable but the rest dosent work, hopefully ea can fix this item again pls

    @Whirlwind5089 I merged your post with another report on this.

    Can you try if replacing the station works for you ? 

    Also do you have a chair ?
