I have two sims they are married with a child. One of them tends to get more flirty than the other. Usually I have them woohoo and it's fine. But now, when I go to do any sort of romance options between them its now gone. No longer there. Now their romance bar is slowly going away and I can't do anything to fix it. I tried repairing the game, removing any mods. But nothing has worked.
Sorry, didn't see your answer. I'm not sure if there's currently a workaround or not.
wtf sims 😟can I fix it?
I checked your family and they have indeed the sibling issue.
Going to merge this with the main thread
Thanks. Wasn't sure from your post if I'm just not seeing them :D
Checking them out now and let you know.
Sorry just got home, the family is Jayvik I just shared it to the gallery
Did you upload them ? What's the name of the family ?
Sure ! My name is the same here.
then it's possibly something about the couple.
Could you upload the family to the gallery and post their name here ? (also yours if it differs from your name here)
Just played two other households and nothing was wrong with them.
Alright I’ll let you know what I find.
Would be good if you could test another household.
I’ve only been playing this sims household for a bit. So I’m not exactly sure
Are those the only Sims you have issues with in that save or is it a general issue ?
Well it wasn’t turning them into siblings.
I checked mods didn’t change anything.
There is a known issue with Sims turning into siblings that can cause this but also outdated mods.
Does it occur if you put just the save back but none of your mods ? Make sure to copy the save file so yo have a backup.
Looks like the file was corrupted as you suggested, because my older ones are completely fine. But my only concern is what's to stop it from happening again?
I have pics in my blog here: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/resetting-the-game-to-factory-settings-without-reinstalling/ if that helps. It doesn't matter if you call it Old or Backup.
No I don’t have anyone unfortunately, if I had someone show me that would be easier. I’m a visual learner.
Maybe you have someone that can help you ? Which steps do you have problems understanding ?
I’m going to sound very dumb but I’m not very techy. I barely understand mods (how to put them in games) so this just seems very confusing to me.
- Close the game
- Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
Repair the game
- Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry.
- Close the game
- Copy the save game with the error from Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old\Saves to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to the new Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4
- Start your save game
- Check if you still have the error and if you do, try the double load again.
- Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.
