[DU] No Diploma/Graduation Portrait/Milestones with two graduates

Playing a household of Foxbury students in the campus housing, in total I have 2/5 with their physical diplomas and 3/5 with the milestone. I’ve seen that you can try to repeat the graduation ceremony for the pictures but I don’t know of anything that can create a missing diploma or milestone. Everyone else that’s has this issue has just been freaking out bc it wasn’t 6pm yet but it’s been weeks in my save file, I got the notifications for all of them and they just.. weren’t in their inventories. I couldn’t check household inventory because apparently student housing doesn’t have one and then they were kicked out of student housing bc they graduated so i’m not sure how to go forward.

I was able to replicate this issue both in the same save and a fresh one with all mods removed as I did use many DU-related mods in the first playthrough, then I individually tested my modded degrees as it’s totally fair that those may not generate physical diplomas but no dice, issue persisted. They have 100% graduated, they have it in the degree section of the simology panel, their profiles, and they got the career boosts, which is great, I mainly just want the physical diploma to put up on the wall :(

  • Hi spritelst​ 

    to be sure what you mean by 100% graduated, the graduation itself took place ?

    Did you have one or more household Sims graduate at the same time ?

    Yes to both. I think because I had multiple sims graduating at the same time the event itself got a bit bugged out, one sim didn’t go inside and just awkwardly stood there. I’ve seen that’s a known glitch, and causes them to not get their graduation picture, but should have no effect on the diploma as that always comes at 6pm on graduation day. I mentioned that they’ve “100%” graduated because the only other bug reports i’ve seen on this are from those who’s sims hadn’t officially graduated, but mine have all markers that their degree is finished besides the diploma and milestone.

  • The old report was also for both diploma/graduation portrait for two or more graduates not only portrait.

    Guess  milestones have the same issue.

    Sorry what do you mean? I haven’t seen any other reports of people not receiving diplomas, and what does “Reviewed” mean? I’d like this report to hopefully get boosted so that EA could just add the ability to request a copy of your diploma like they did with the HSY’s diploma and growing together marriage certificate, it doesn’t seem like it’d be a complicated fix and I know many people have accidentally deleted those items or moved houses and lost them, etc. Simply not allowing multiple sims to graduate together ISN’T a fix because there’s no way for me to go back and change their graduation times, it’s just something to keep in mind for the future, so the bug isn’t resolved?

  • This is the first time I've had two household Sims attend university at the same time. When graduation arrived, only one of the two Sims went into the graduation rabbithole. When I clicked the building for "Attend graduation ceremony", the remaining Sim gestured as though there is a routing error (frantic arm waving) and remained outside. At the end of the ceremony all the graduates gathered outside and my Sims then returned to campus housing. After returning to their original family lot, only one of the two had graduation portraits in their inventory. Shortly after both received their diplomas in their personal inventories.

    My sim just graduated University with a biology degree and for some reason the milestone never popped up. I tried using cheats to remove her degree and then equipped it again to see if that would trigger it but it didn't work. I also tried enrolling again after removing the degree and it said that's not possible because she already has that degree. I'm on console so I cannot use mods to fix this unfortunately. I've had the milestone trigger for other sims without any issue, so I'm wondering if maybe my sim being busy tutoring at the time that her final grades came in has anything to do with it (since I've had a milestone fail to trigger before when my sim was in a rabbit hole event).

    This isn't a huge deal but I do really like using milestones to tell a story so any milestone being missing does bum me out a bit.
