[IL] Sims don't go to Odd Jobs

Hi there

I have a sim that I am getting her to do odd jobs via the computer. When it is selected and then comes to the time, many times she does not go to the job and it just cancel saying Critical Failure and dropping my down my star rating - there is no reason for this to happen that I can see as she has the right skill level (if there is a need for this). 

Can anyone explain this to me please as I am so confused.

Unfortunately I cannot seem to attach any file to this post as it wont accept either word or pdf and the screen shots using c in the game do not take shots of the notification panel.

I have no custom content and am playing on PC

  • You can use the windows snipping tool to take a screenshot of the message. Would be good to know what it looks like.

     

  • This keeps happening to me too. My Sim has all the correct skill levels, but every time there is a high paying job, this happens. I'm  now down to 2 stars.

    Hello​ Hoppers1077​  If you use mods/cc,try moving the whole mods folder to another place, delete the localthumbcache.package and then test to see if the issue remains without mods/cc there.

    I will try to video it. Any other job and my Sim goes straight to it. With the high paying jobs nothing happens, the job deletes itself from the schedule and a message appears in the notifications. It says 'critical error' and then goes on about the client being unhappy she didn't fulfil her role.

    It was a high paid job. Skill was cooking level 1, she is level 4. It was due to start at 02:00. At 02:00 the job disappeared from her schedule and left this in the notifications.

    Hi Hoppers1077​ 

    thanks for the pic. I was expecting some kind of error message so the screenshot is very helpful.

    Guess if they don't go, that explains the failure.

    Anyways, moved this to the bug forum.
