Desync/Picker Interaction (Causing LEs) on Loveseats/Sofas
Sims are unable to sit at sofas/loveseats as the "sit" interaction is no longer available and upon clicking on the sofa/loveseat, the game generates a LE, every time. Sometimes it reads as a desync, sometimes it reads as a picker interaction. My save was modded but mods have since been removed to test. This has not been happening on newly generated saves and is only affecting my pre Dec 2nd update saves. I've selected multiple chairs to generate the LE a few times, see below: Edit By crinrict: Added Spoiler Tags659Views24likes18Comments[EBN] Sim won't bathe nor catch frogs in own pond (active Want)
I have installed the Enchanted by Nature Pack yesterday and played for a while with one sim in Sprucederry Grove. Newly made sim, newly made world. By now she has her Natural Living Skill maxed. Her lot if the Fern and Frond Wading Pool. She should be able to bathe in her pond and look for frogs there, but she simply refuses. I've tried completing her wants, but that helped literally only once. The weather is cold, but with her Natural Living Skill at 10 this shouldn't matter according to the game. She DOES bathe in the river/stream in Spruderry Grove, so I know the cold isn't the problem. She can get to the water of the pond on the lot without a problem. I have no CC nor mods installed as I first wanted to try out this pack without any outside additions.

Hi EA team, I have to say it’s really disappointing that in Madden 26 Superstar Mode (QB) we still can’t use our team’s actual playbook. Instead, we’re stuck with the same simplified “shared” playbook no matter which team drafts us. Why is this still a thing in 2025? The whole point of getting drafted by a specific team is to experience that team’s real offensive system. Yet you’ve removed that depth entirely and replaced it with a generic playbook that feels stripped down and boring. Is this just because of the playbook unlock mechanic? If so, that’s not a good excuse — you literally have a working system for this in College Football 26, so just use that framework. This feels like a lazy design choice that completely undermines the immersion and variety of Superstar Mode. Players want to feel the difference between being a 49er, a Chiefs QB, or a Ravens QB — not to run the same 15 generic plays over and over again. Please reconsider this decision, or at least communicate if there’s a technical reason for it. Superstar Mode deserves more than a “one-size-fits-all” playbook.

Hi everyone, Over the past week, we’ve seen a small uptick in reports from players encountering a “Service Limitations Apply” error in the EA app on PC and Mac. This error appears during login, when launching a game via a third-party launcher (like Steam or Epic), or when trying to link those launchers to an EA account. To help us investigate and hopefully resolve this for those affected, please share the following information in your reply: Your region/country of residence Whether you are located in or connecting through a country listed under EA’s restricted regions (see: "EA games unavailable in some countries or regions") Are you using a VPN? If so, please disable it completely (make sure no VPN-related processes are running), reboot your device, and try again.

The helmet banners and chinstraps are appearing chrome/black in game instead of white (or any other color you choose) that it shows in Teambuilder. It even shows correctly in the preview in Download Center in game, but when you download the team and start a franchise, then play a game or view players in Adjust Lineup, the chinstraps and banners are chrome/black. Only 4 of the helmet types aren't having this glitch and appear normal (Axium, Vicis 2, Gladiator, and Light) - the rest of the helmets (f7, Speedflex, etc.) all have the glitch. It takes away from what our team is supposed to be. Last Madden, there was a similar glitch in that the banners and chinstraps would automatically match the color of the helmet chosen. This time it's a chrome black color regardless of the color. See below for example. It should be white banner where the Orcas is as well as the back banner, and the chin straps and cups should be white. Instead, you can see on the F7 they're showing up black/chrome. The Axium displays correctly in-game. There are several other things I'd love to see added to TB, but ultimately, this glitch is the biggest concern as of now. Can this please be addressed as it must not be that hard to fix. It seems to have started occurring in the past week or so since the last major Madden update. Even teams that I made a month ago prior to the glitch are having the same bug.694Views5likes15CommentsException in Sim Timeline: Exception running Element
I've had this bug happening a few times in different locations (home, Netherworld HeadQuarters and the most recent at the Spicy Festival) after planning some interactions for the sim. The last was with the Spice festival. I got this error message (with thanks to the Better Exceptions Mod by Twisted Mexi, the only mod installed in the game) Exception in Sim Timeline: Exception running Element (AttributeError: 'JoinSituationElement' object has no attribute 'situation_type') I closed the game last night after getting that error. And upon opening the game this morning again I got the error immediately, I assume because the Sim was still in the same situation. I've played this particular save always without mods because I specifically only made it for the events and I wanted to make sure nothing would influence the events in one way or another. The only mod that is installed is the Better Exceptions mod from Twisted Mexi. What I was trying to do: - Planned some interactions for my sim to talk to the stall vendors - What I expected would happen: just normal execution of the tasks - What happened: --> Without the mod: the game would start to lag and then hang and I couldn't even get the game to close. I had to force close it through the task manager by ending bu several times ending the task (the task would pop back up several times in the task manager before it remained ended) --> With the Better Exceptions mod: I got the BE Warning and the report. I closed the game after that without a hitch. but.... I can't play this particular save file anymore until the bug gets resolved because now it pops-up immediately when I resume the game and my Sim and the world are loaded. More information from the Better Exceptions report: Possible Cause (Confidence: 10%) interaction_elements I have added the saves files from last night's session and from this morning and the Better Exceptions report to the attached zip-file. I hope that helps in finding out what's wrong.

Ciao a tutti. ❤️ Ho pensato di scrivere questo post per aiutare altri giocatori ad effettuare eventuali verifiche prima di inviare una segnalazione a EA. Come si vede anche dal pop up giallo che appare in alto al forum, EA sta cercando di sistemare delle problematiche che sono insorte nella app in questi giorni, quindi il primo consiglio che vi do è di non acquistare niente di nuovo finché il problema non sia risolto. La seconda cosa da fare e di Svuotare la cache, come descritto nel link. Fatte queste premesse passiamo alle verifiche vere e proprie: Per utenti che hanno effettuato acquisti su EA app, Origin o sul sito 1) Verificate che l'account con cui fate il login sulla EA app/Origin sia quello corretto dove avete effettuato gli acquisti. 2) Se la risposta è sì, allora dovete verificare, sulla vostra pagina personale, lo stato dell'acquisto. Andate sul sito EA ed effettuate il login con le vostre credenziali, a quel punto cliccate l'icona del vostro avatar in alto a destra e scegliete Impostazioni Account. Da lì selezionate la scheda Cronologia degli Ordini, dovrebbe mostrarvi tutti gli ultimi ordini effettuati. Controllate se prima di tutto sono presenti gli acquisti che avete fatto e poi in che Stato sono. Se lo stato è qualcosa di diverso da Completato, segnatevelo ed eventualmente scrivetelo poi nel report di errore. Una volta fatte queste verifiche, se il problema persiste, la procedura è aprire una segnalazione. Seguite le indicazioni presenti in questa guida (che è sia per utenti PC sia per utenti MAC) e scrivetevi da qualche parte il numero di pratica (Reporter ID) che vi servirà in seguito. Una volta inviata la segnalazione e col numero di pratica (EA app Error Reporter ID) in vostro possesso, potete scrivere sul forum inglese di AHQ in questo thread. Nel primo messaggio del thread vi verrano rischieste delle informazioni da inserire nel vostro post. Seguite le indicazioni e mi raccomando scrivete in inglese. Per utenti che hanno effettuato acquisti su Steam o Epic 1) Verificate che l'account con cui vi loggate sulla EA app sia quello corretto, ossia quello linkato a Steam o Epic. Se il problema persiste potete inviare una segnalazione. Seguite le indicazioni presenti in questa guida e segnatevi da qualche parte il numero di pratica (Report ID) che vi servirà in seguito. Una volta inviata la segnalazione e col numero di pratica a portata di mano, potete scrivere sul forum inglese di AHQ in questo thread (che è diverso da quello sopra). Nel primo messaggio vi verranno richieste delle informazioni da inserire nel vostro post. Seguite le indicazioni e mi raccomando scrivete in inglese. Sperando di aver fatto cosa gradita, incrocio anch'io le dita che tutto venga sistemato al più presto. 🤞1.1KViews4likes0Comments[CD] [AA] Dogs use playground/diving board and become distorted
OK umm I just wanted to describe a bug I noticed. I put up a play ground for my minisims (kids) pretty impressive 🧐 but the thing is my dogs don't seem to think it's a Sim toy but a Dog toy, they go up the stairs and the ramps. They go through the tunnel and down both slides the regular one and the snake one. It's very disturbing to watch. It reminds me of an old cc or mod from Sims3. some piece of clothing that deformed sims, that was a mess, my message not to use them lol. well that's it, check it out please, see what you think and have a good laugh 😄 nelejake. P.S. I had a really great video but couldn't get it down to 75mg 💀 I tried several ways but was unable to attach it here sorry,if you want to see the video tell me how to get it to you. And by the way, since when did dogs start diving into the pool? I love that Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title67Views4likes7Comments
