Edit Family Relationship
I created a family in CAS: mom, dad, 2 teen girls and 1 teen boy. The teens are showing up as children to each of the adults (mom and dad) but the mom and dad are roomates. (wth?) I didn't realize this oversight until I put the family in a house in live mode. Now I can't edit their relationship in CAS with testingcheats. I tried a modifyrelationship cheat but it's not working at all either, I guess because they have the same last name. (???) Kinda frustrated at myself. Any help?428KViews0likes11Comments[OLD] Broken/Updated Mods & CC: July 26 '22 High School etc. Patch and August Patches
Broken/Updated Mods & CC: July 26 '22 Sexual Orientation/High School etc. Patch and August Patches ----- This thread is superseded by https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/1003466/broken-updated-mods-cc-sept-13-2022-patch/ ----- This topic is for collecting reports on mod and custom content status after the July 26, 2022, Sexual Orientation/High School etc. patch, the August 2 hotfix patch, and the August 30 patch. Most mod updates are reported here; updates that only add a translation and non-broken CC updates generally aren't. A few notes to keep this thread helpful for others and manageable for me: This is not a help thread. If you need help finding out what mod broke, read the lists!, do a 50-50 (see later this post for link to instructions), then if needed visit one of the Discord support servers: Sims After Dark: https://discord.gg/RqPqCdBsdF Deaderpool: https://discord.gg/z9qPtWU If you can't use Discord for some reason, this is still not a support thread. Start a new thread. Please don’t report mods as cleared for the patch UNLESS you are the creator or their representive or you have a link to where the creator reported this. Please don’t ask about mods. If there's an answer about the mod or modder, it's on page 1. DO NOT mention or hint at mods that break Forum rules (NSFW/18+, etc.). Fully test mods before you report them broken (instructions below). When you report them broken, tell me how they are broken and how you tested. I cannot list mods as broken without this. Thank you for helping keep this list working! Your support keeps information flowing to Simmers in many places online beyond here. GAME-RATED CONTENT ONLY Mods that breaks the T-for-Teen game rating CANNOT be named or discussed in these official Sims forums. It’s against Forum Rules. Some creators of these mods also won’t be reported here depending on how sending you to their content works. Please see creators’ own social media. Also not listed: Mods/CC by people who copy other people’s mods/CC, copy other companies’ copyrighted content or trademarks, pirate software or openly support software piracy, do not release free public updates within a reasonable time (3 weeks for CC), or are otherwise not in compliance with EA's policy on mods. TESTING FOR BROKEN MODS Before reporting a mod is broken, test it: Back up your saves in case you save over or corrupt a favorite file while you’re testing. Remove everything else from your Mods folder. Leave only the mod being tested. This is the only way to be sure that the problem is not a conflict between mods. Delete the localthumbcache file. This step is important because the file holds the memory of mods. If you don’t delete it, you could still just be seeing a mod conflict or different broken mod. Open your game and test to see if the mod is doing what it should. If it’s still broken, please let me know! Tell me how it’s broken and how you tested it, and let the creator know too. To test if a last exception (LE) is being generated and why, you can use TwistedMexi’s Better Exceptions and/or Deaderpool's core MC Command Center files. These files rarely break after game updates. If you need help reading an LE, please head to a Discord server (see below). The Forums are an extremely awkward place for LE support, and this is not a support thread.

Got married in park - no drinks, no food??
I picked park to get married, hired a mixologist (he was there), hired a caterer (he was there), but then at the wedding, when you are trying to get three drinks, take first slice and so on, there's no wedding cake, no food, no drinks, no bar... seriously?! So don't pick the park to get married b/c they won't bring food or drinks?338KViews1like20Comments
Practice Dramatic Scenes
So I need to practice dramatic scenes for my acting gig, and it says "perform drama scene with another sim or perform dramatic monologue". I don't have drama listed under scenes I can perform with another sim, and I don't see any options to perform a dramatic monologue. Am I missing something?307KViews1like26Comments[OLD] Broken/Updated Mods & CC: July ’21 Cottage Living Patch + Aug '21 patch
This thread has been superseded by https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/993732/broken-updated-mods-cc-sept-21-spa-day-refresh-patch ----- Broken/Updated Mods & CC: July ’21 Cottage Living Patch + Aug '21 patch This topic is for collecting reports on mod and custom content status after the Cottage Living patch (July) and the Industrial Loft Kit patch (August). Please keep discussion to reports. Thanks! NOTE: The July patch has been VERY hard on mods. Many, many, many mods are not listed as broken yet because some modders are so busy trying to fix things they haven't provided broken lists or have only noted some key things. Many mods that are not reportable on the Official Forums have MAJOR issues. Please play only with confirmed fine or updated mods. If you play with mods that can't be reported on the forums or that are from modders who have a lot of those mods, please do NOT rely only on the lists here. NOTE: This is not a support thread. If you need help figuring out what broke your game, 1. REMOVE all your mods 2. UPDATE what's updated on this page. For non-game-rated mods, you'll have to find information somewhere else. 3. Check what mods are reported fine by modders. 4. Still have a problem? Head over to one of the Discord servers listed below. GAME-RATED CONTENT ONLY: Mods that breaks the T game rating cannot be discussed or named in these official forums and will not be included in my list. Do not ask about or report on any of them here — it’s against forum rules. There are other places on the internet where things like that can be discussed. Please note that some creators and links are off-limits here as well for this reason. ALTERNATIVES TO HERE: If you prefer Discord for real-time notifications, you can get broken/update info for mods and CC and new bugfix (and similar) mods on Discord on this non-NSFW/T-rated server, which is otherwise primarily for creators: Creator Musings, https://discord.gg/qxz5Kn5 . Unlike here, there we also have updates that are for new mod features or other improvements, including updates to non-broken CC. Creators also post there directly. But it's not a support forum. REPORTING BROKEN MODS: Before reporting a mod is broken, test it: Back up your saves in case you save over or corrupt a favorite file while you’re testing. Remove everything from your Mods folder except the mod being tested and, if you’re looking for a last exception (LE) to be generated, TwistedMexi’s Better Exceptions and/or the core MC Command Center files. If you need help reading an LE, please head to the Deaderpool or Sims After Dark server on Discord. Delete the localthumbcache file. Open your game and test to see if the mod is doing what it should. If it’s still broken, please let me know! Include how it’s broken and how you tested it, and let the creator know too.

Happy Patch Day.! This topic is for collecting reports on mod and CC status after the November 2017 patch and with the Cats and Dogs EP. Please keep discussion to reports - there's lots of other places for general discussion of mods and updates. Please DO NOT report 18+ mods here! It's not allowed on the forums. NOTE on CC: Most of the problems being reported are from CC, not mods. Please scroll down to check the CC issues! That's a few post down. Maxis is not responsible for patching to fix CC. Head over to Sims 4 Studio: you can fix it yourself. If you've not used Sims 4 Studio before, scroll down on this page - there's a how-to in the CC post. Reminder: Back up your saves before you try testing mods on your own. And please don't assume that only what's listed here is broken, fine, or updated. Check where you got your mods, if at all possible. BUG WARNING Before you play, back up your saves. DO NOT go into build/buy from the world map until after you play a household. Relationships will be wiped. (Fixed by a game update) DO NOT delete Sims. This is probably cause of a major game error. DO NOT travel with Vampires. This can delete Vampire perks.
