They were doing what i wanted earlier now they won't respond to commands and then when i try to close the game, it won't respond what the heck?
- Anonymous11 years agoI'm having the exact same problem I even exited out the game and went back into it. Still the same thing.

Have you tried restarting your computer? Also if your mouse/keyboard use their own software, please make sure it is running with Admin rights.

My sim was sitting at the bar ordered a drink, then tried to order chips and every one at the bar just stopped. This included 5 other NPCs (bartender included). I used the ResetSim command, this removed everyone from the bar but then all the effected sims would just stand there idly. I was able to save as the game file, and on trying to exit had to manually kill the Sim 4 task in the task manager because it was not responding but would not even give me the not responding failure message. When I restarted the game my sims and 3 of the NPCs were still stuck in idle.

Also any attempted interaction with the bar will not queue, but other interactions will (they just don't execute)

It's happened to me 3 times in the past 3 days. I tried canceling all actions, attempting to travel (which usually goes to loading screen immediately), and even evicting and moving them back into their home. Nothing works so far except loading the previous save, which is hours behind.
Really frustrating bug...
Also, if I exit the game while it's bugged and try to load that same save, it will never load. I need to manually cancel Sims4 from the Task Manager and start the game up again, with a different save. I'm really glad I had a different save or I'd have lost everything I'd played so far.

My sim is stuck in a chair. I cant get him to do anything. He has already peed himself twice because he cant get up.

Did you try to reset the Sims with resetsim <firstname> <lastname> ?

I am experiencing the same problem and nothing seems to be helpful. I tried the resetsim command, restarting computer, even reinstaling the game and repairing it by Origin and it's just no use. The game at first seems to work fine after loading up the save, but there is no way to 'force' my sim to move. Also after loading the game there is no other way to exiting it but killing its process in WTM.
Loosing that particular game would be very frustrating, since I don't have any other 'backup' saves and would lose about 20 hours of progress :/
Is there any chance for some solution?- 11 years agoI had the same problem, reset Sim doesn't work. I went into the other neighbourhood (don't know which you're playing in so obviously whichever one you're not.) I sent a sim from this neighbourhood to visit my frozen sim and chatted to them, went back home, saved the game to main menu and then opened the original game. Sims were no longer frozen, not sure what to do if both neighbourhoods freeze though.
