Question about the style board from style career
I have been playing sims 4 for years and played the style career pretty well. I have filled up the board in my house with impress muses etc. I was wondering if I move houses will the style board reset, or will it stay the same when I add one in my new house? I don't want to lose my progress, so I have avoided moving.

Reaper rewards bug
Will they be fixing the reaper rewards bug??? I am not seeing any prompts so I can’t complete any of the missions… I’m not sure why it stopped working… I don’t use cheats or mods or anything like that, I’m very basic with my game play… however I saw this is a very common issue on Reddit and I have no idea how to even locate the files those people are talking about… what do I do????

Reaper's rewards Event UI not showing up
I have done everything to get this event to work. I have repaired my game, I have deleted the accounts data file, took out and disabled mods, I even deleted my entire sims 4 file from the electronic arts folder and played a fully vanilla game and still NOTHING. I can see the little grim icon but the plumbob icons that are supposed to be above it are nowhere to be seen so I can't access the event tasks. The only thing I haven't done is uninstalling and reinstalling the game but I would like to avoid doing that since it would take HOURS. Point is I need help and for some reason the recent patch update didn't fix the issue for me and I just want to know if I am not alone because I really want the rewards and I feel like I'm going crazy trying to do so.

Reaper's Reward Event Restart
I played Week 1 with a game save, but I deleted that save afterward. Now I’ve started a new save, and the Week 2 challenges are available. However, I don’t have the progress I made during Week 1 anymore, and I don’t remember the things I needed to do. I would like to restart the challenge so that I can have a Sim with the same skills and progress I should have by the end of Week 1. Is there any way to replay Week 1, or reset the progress to be in line with what I should have achieved?

Let's try this again (Attempt #3!)
This is the third time I've typed this out, and tried to post it. We'll see if it works THIS time! I have had a problem since the Sept. 18, 2024 update. The update worked just fine. I saved my game, went to bed, and when I opened it up the next night to play, the Spice Festival and the Flea Market (both of which my Sim had attended, and both were just fine when she attended them) were smashed together (along with the other 'regular' kiosks that appear in that park.) I tried playing until both events came back up, my Sim attended until closing of both, to no avail. So far, none of the other festivals are affected. Also, on Saturday, snow appeared in Skye Fitness, and one Sim made a Snow Angel that everyone has to try to walk around. Today (Wednesday, Sept 24) my Sim suddenly can't resume painting or 'grab a plate' if she cooks a family meal. Seems like everyday there's another glitch. I am totally not computer savvy, and while I did take a look at my saved games, there is no way to tell what is what. I wouldn't even know how to pull up a 'saved game'! To me, this is a problem (or rather, these are problems) that are a result of the update. Any advice on what to do? I had just purchased For Rent as well, now I'm regretting every purchase I've made since I started playing this game about a year ago. Help?

Grim Reaper Event Issue
Hi, I ran into a problem with the Grim Reaper event - I didn't have enough time to complete all the tasks yesterday, so I left them for today. Unfortunately, they disappeared. I remember having to reaserch the plant and something else. Today they don't show up.

reaper tasks have disappeared
so i think it happened because i started a new game, but i cant see the tasks at all. they were there when i started and i completed “talk to three sims about ambrosia” and “research ambrosia” and then it disappeared entirely. the little grim that shows how many tasks i’ve completed and what rewards ive gotten is still there, but the little diamond that had the actual tasks is gone. i’ve restarted the game, my laptop, even a new sim. my last resort is trying a new save file, but this IS a new save file which is why i’m confused. i opened the game again this morning hoping it was just a glitch but it’s still a thing. i was actually really excited for this event too. editing to add: i’ve tried another new save file and it did not work. my reaper rewards also still show that i’ve completed and claimed the stuff i did in the last save file even though i didn’t get the chance to restart the reaper rewards in this save, it’s like it just carried over from the previous save. i am going to see if turning off my mods does anything. if it helps, i am on the EA app and using CurseForge for mods. edit 2: i removed mods and started a new save file, but the same thing is still happening. no tasks, reaper rewards still show that i’ve completed up to a certain point, “assistant to the grim reaper” is completed but “a call away” is still there and im seeing no signs of the newsletter. id really like some help here please, i was really excited for this event.

Trying to get in contact with EA
I am annoyed by the customer service provided by EA. I followed the instructions of a post trying to open a case regarding this error code. How do we get in contact with EA?
