traditional social menu stuck

I enabled the traditional social menu under gameplay in the game options but unticking it has not changed the social menu back. I have tried the restore defaults in the game options, I deleted the resource.cfg in mods folder and told the launcher to repair the game. Also I have uninstalled the game, deleted all files manually and reinstalled the game it is still in the traditional social menu. I have deleted these files Options.ini + UserSetting.ini and told the launcher to repair it is still stuck.

The version I am playing is 1.97.62.1020. I did recently have a larger household mod installed but I have removed it and don't think it has caused this issue.

  • The menu is similar to the other social menu but the traditional one has subcategories of each interaction, the normal menu has friendly, then the actions that are friendly, the traditional one has friendly then stories, small talk, hobbies etc.

    that's how the new menu looks. That was changed a few patches ago.

    The difference between traditional and non-traditional is that for non-traditional, the first layer shows current suggestions while traditional does not do  that.

    That's how they look for me

    non-traditional

    First level

    Then this

    and the friendly menu

    The traditional menu looks like this

    First level when I click on the Sim

    then friendly menu

    So do you get that first set of suggestions when you choose non-traditional ?

  • I seem to be the one confused here, yes the first social level for me does have the normal suggestions. 

    Is there any option I can choose to disable the subcategories? ex. stories, small talk, interests etc.

    I haven't played in a long time and the menu used to not have them.

    @fredemc25 That was a change they made with the growing together patch. There's no option to go back to the old.
