I know this is a little older, but I figured instead of making a new thread...
After installing Discover University, my "add by story" button is gone. If I repair the game it returns, but only until I restart the game again. I have no CC or mods.

Mines gone since the last patch update. I need to make a sim for my legacy challenge. And the story mode would help massively
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@smensforth Are you guys using any mods/cc in your games ?

I am having the same issue, unfortunately. Repairing it every time before a start is maybe a quick fix but not a solution... Any ideas?

I am having the same issue, I have had this problem since the original patch, and have tried everything. I do not use player mods or any CC. I just use whatever is in Origin.
Today, I started a new game, and created my first SIM using Story Mode. I went to create a second SIM and clicked the button to add a sim, but there was NO OPTION for the Story Mode (no book) in the menu for adding a SIM. I started the game and clicked on add a new household, and NO STORY BOOK option available on "add a sim".So, not only does this happen in all my save games, but also in a brand new game I created today.
I decided to "repair my game", when it was done repairing the game AND verifiying all my different expansion packs, stuff packs, game packs, etc. I went back into the game I created today, to add a person to the original family I started, and the option appeared there and I saved the game. I checked my other 2 save games and the option did show up. Next, I exited the game, and closed down SIMS.I restarted SIMS and selected the game I made today and all the other saves I have and it seems to have fixed the problem. I believe the key to my fix this time was waiting for all the "verify" of the different packs I have for Sims, rather than just going into the game after the game was "repaired".
I hope this helps anyone with the book icon not showing on ADD A SIM

I also am missing the create a story option after installing University. Just noticed after playing University for a few weeks. I'll try repairing in Origin.

@sheridanalexis26 Does this happen in a new save as well? You can make a couple of sims and play with them for a few minutes, then create another one as a test.

I'm not sure what you mean by playing with them as I'm referring to the CAS feature. This save is only a few days old and it's currently vanilla. However, I just repaired my game on Origin and I think that fixed it.
