My Sims won't do anything

My game was working fine until later today when my second Sim (I have a house with two Sims) now can't do anything. The commands will be in the reserve section, but they don't move from there. The other Sim is fine and works like he should. I tried a different house with two Sims in it and the second Sim eventually got stuck in an action and her reserve commands didn't move to the active section.

As for mods, I've used a program to help identify and clear out conflicting mods.

  • I did as you asked and the game works fine without the mods/cc enabled.

  • @crinrict It worked with the cc/mods disabled so I deleted a bunch of conflicting files from my Mods folder using the Mod Conflict Detector and even removed the files it couldn't get a read on just to be safe (since I still got the glitch when I didn't clear them). It worked and my game could activate the reserve actions, but eventually the game now won't let my second Sim activate the menus when clicking on another Sim and I can't get the menu to appear when I click on an active Sims themselves.

  • @crinrict I didn't add any new material back. I tried two other households and neither let me access the menus by clicking on the active Sim. One household went back to my original glitch problem (reserve actions wouldn't activate) after playing with them for a while.

    Thanks for helping me with this.

    @yhuntresse Could you test if you have the same issues with a new save ?

    Also make sure to delete the localthumbcahce file
  • @crinrict I deleted the file you mentioned and started a new game where I still can't access the menu when I click on my active Sim.

    @yhuntresse Bit unclear but have you tried renaming the entire user folder yet and starting a new save game ? Do you have the same issue there ?
  • @crinrict I ended up deleting all the stuff in my Mods folder, deleting my saves, starting a new game and things worked fine. I guess I'll just have to start things over.
