Pack are not included even tho they are downloaded
So i have packs and now my game does not load any of them to the game. It says you dont have these packs even tho i have and i have downloaded them all and my ea says i have them downloaded. I tried repair all the packs and everything but still nothing works.[patch 1.122] Game launches to black screen with main-menu words but no picture
I accidentally update my game without knowing that the mod and cc are broken since the marketplace is out. It updated like usual, but it won't open after that. So I tried to repair it on the EA app before trying to open it again. Failed, but I kept trying to open it without thinking to remove the mod and cc in the game. After awhile, it did open and load like usual, until the menu appeared like that. I can't interact with anything, even the escape button. I need to forced the game closed to quit the game. I might try again later with mod and cc removed. - title edited for clarity - Luth
[PS] GUI corruption
this is what my game look like, im on console so no mods or cc but the game UI is completely unfunctionable and cant save right now, same with if I clicked on a sim and the profile it shows a line of wwwwwwwwww and I cant click off it. The family tree constantly appears in the background when I use the back button, my manage worlds all dont have name as well. im wondering if this is something new or if its a recent bug? Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title[SE] Mountain Excursion: No Sims available to pick as Leader
Can't even plan the event and I also wish it gave you a heads up that you can't do it alone. It wants me to choose an Excursion Leader but when I select it, it gives me no sims to choose from. I've spent days getting my sims Rock Climbing skill to a 10 just to not be able to even do it. Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title

Feature Suggestion: Challenge UI Adjustment
TL;DR: This concept adjusts the Challenge UI based on stance to maintain a clear gameplay view. Description: The current Challenge UI behaves differently depending on stance. In Goofy, the UI sits in a clean position that doesn't interfere with the skater or default camera. It feels natural and unobtrusive. In Regular stance, the same UI placement overlaps the skater due to the default camera, which can pull focus away from gameplay. This concept introduces a simple positional and alignment adjustment that improves gameplay in Regular stance. Why it's useful: Maintains a consistent gameplay view Reduces interference without removing existing systems Improves visibility where overlap currently occurs Goofy Stance - Challenge UI The challenge UI doesn't interfere with the default camera angle while in Goofy. Regular Stance - Challenge UI The challenge UI overlaps the skater with the default camera angle while in Regular. Regular Stance - Challenge UI Adjustment The challenge UI is adjusted for the default camera angle while in Regular.
