  • Nope, I was not using mods when this happened.  

    In fact, ironically, I had to use mods to solve this problem.  

    But I still would love a non-mod solution please.

    Willing to share your save game ?

    If so, please zip up this folder: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\saves and drop the file to this Mediafire-Link to upload.

    Please make sure to name the zip file with your user name. 

  • How do I know which save is the right one? Annnnnnnd because I used Mods to skip over the issue, would it still be the same when I remove the mods I used to fix the issues please?  Thanks

    I don't know if it would still be fixed

    What mod did you use ? (no link, just post the name)

    It sounded like it wasn't fixed without mods since you wanted a modless fix

    It^s probably slot_00000003.save as slot_00000001.save is the autosave and the other has an older date

  • Ooh thanks sorry I've been busy with other stuff.. the last few days and didn't have a chance to respond. 

    The mods I used to "fix" this are called "Try for Baby in Larger Households" and "Full House Mod - Increase your Household Size"

    I'll upload the most recent file to that link you provided.  I tried killing off some sims with Pufferfish nigiri (poor quality) that may be linked to the babies.  I'm going to guess that maybe because the baby is created between my sim and another sim who has a large family tree of her own, those members got indirectly added to the household size.

    Hi @Delirisi We are examining your save. Is the sim which had the large family message called Paradis Azalieus

    Hmm, I actually never thought of that... that it could be the other household that is too big. I thought it was the Dream household because I was controlling Matt Dream when I tried the "try for baby" with Paradis Azalieus.  

    Let me think.. when I tried the "try for baby", the Azalieus family has... 6 adult sims and no babies. Don't know where all the babies came from to be quite honest, since I have not played that sims family in awhile. I have killed off some members of that family just to try (however morbid that sounds â˜šī¸ ), i.e. the Alien father who was married to Paradis Azalieus, but it did not work.  So I kept killing off extended families whom Matt Dream has a baby with.. then I got bored and just resolved it with the mods lol 😞 

    BUT with that said, I think @IrishMadCat_EA you could be right, maybe it was the Azalieus family has reached max limit (prior to mods), that's why the option has been grayed out.  My apologies I did not think of it from that perspective! đŸ˜ž  Thanks!

    P.S. I'm going to remove the mods, and give it a try and see if that's the reason.

    (I honestly had the same problem with a dif family and saw this so thx)

    For why it considered the family full when it had six people, could it be the game compensating for the chance of the sim having triplets? Since if the sim had triplets it would exceed the limit.
