Re: sims 4 seasons : sims not reacting to weather

Hi @Shelbie_ann01

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

  • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
  • Tray Folder
  • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
  • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
  • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
  • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

  • This didn't work for me, they still won't respond to weather. They change clothes for the cold or hot weather, but they won't use an umbrella when its raining (Nor will the townies) and they don't get moodlets from the cold or hot, or if they're in their cold weather outfit when its hot out and vise versa.

    Did you try a new save as well before adding any mods/cc back ? For testing purposes ?
  • Yes it worked thank you! I just had to start a new save and the problem was gone (along with spending an hour eliminating the broken cc) I find it upsetting though because I have a save that I love and I am going to be very sad to have to delete it.

    You shouldn't have to delete your save. Removing the cc that's causing it should put the game back to working order. Trying a new save is just for testing.
