Sims won't use Dishwashers autonomously
Hi Simmers and SimGuru's I have run into an issue where with mods/cc and without mods/cc my sims will not use a dishwasher, autonomously. They only ever wash dishes in the kitchen sink (I do set all the sinks in my sims house to either bathroom or kitchen sinks). I can click on the dishwasher and instruct them to load the dishwasher (I think that's from a mod, not sure - been forever since I actually played vanilla only do it to test issues to see if its from mods/cc or if its a game issue), my sims can upgrade Dishwashers, so its not a routing issue or from things around it preventing use. I have done all of the following to attempt to fix it: - Nothing is blocking the dishwasher (I have tested with clutter on the counter its slotted into and without, neither option works) - I have sold and replaced it with the same model as well as literally every other Dishwasher I have access to from packs I own as well as CC versions I have. - I have had my Sims visit another lot and returned - I have moved my family out and moved them back in to the same house - I have repaired my game - I have totally uninstalled and reinstalled the game - I have tired it in new saves, existing saves, different households in new and existing saves It happens with CC Dishwashers and Vanilla Dishwashers. It occurs in existing saves as well as new save.Broken and Updated Sims 4 Mods and CC: patch 1.122, March 17, 2026 and hotfixes

I had to remake this thread since 1 edit to correct stuff since It was way outdated got it falsely removed by auto mod and wanted to get the main page up to date. So I have to remake it. I'm going to use the info from mod the sims to make it easier on myself. This mod brings back the old days where you can cheat Younger sims to be ghosts. With the Life and death update. The sims team restricted on which ages can be which type of Ghosts. Which made Toddler, Infants, adult pets and baby pets to no longer be ghosts. This mod allows the old days again so they can be ghosts again. There are side effects like stretching from young meteor ghosts doing the death animation. Toddlers walking slow but other then that it works well. Toddlers who have the laughter trait can make people playful like adult. This will also fix certain features like The premade Ghost Dog Captain Whittaker and fix the wishing well issues when you get a Ghost Child from there. I made this mod personally but I had people ask me from places to share it. Pets can only be Old age for reasons. I will say this. Bugs. I don't want to get this one removed and that might have been the reason. It brings the old days. They still can't die but you add the ghost traits with Cheats like the trait equip cheat. MCCC or UI cheats. The traits were enabled for them so all ghost types in the normal game are enabled for them but not death. You just have to add the traits to them with cheats like how it was before Life and death patch. If you use Young Ghosts Return and want to upload them to the Gallery or somewhere. Make sure to include this in the description. #YoungGhostsReturn That way. People will know the mod used in the upload with young ghosts and why it's marked as custom content. It will help a lot and clear things up. This thread you will see updates and the status of the mod in the comments.Disappearing Custom Careers/After-School Activities if Royalty EP installed
Careers are disappearing after the "noble" tag was created and the Royalty and Legacy pack was released. This seems to particularly affect modded careers, such as the ones by Midnitetech and KiaraSims4Mods. Sims will have a career one moment, and then the sim will suddenly be unemployed. This happens in real time while the sim is being actively played. Sometimes it appears to be triggered by the sim traveling to a different lot and sometimes it happens completely randomly. This happens whether or not the sim has the noble tag. In fact, in most cases where this has occurred in my saves, the noble tag was not present. - title edited for clarification - LuthSolvedCC not showing up
I have attempted to do what EA_Solaire had suggested by moving items into the test folder and deleting the mods folder. Started a new game, exited, and a new mods folder was created, and I manually moved the items. So that suggestion doesn't work at all. So when I log in after creating that new folder, my mods show up on the startup option, confirming they are all there. I make sure the script and CC are enabled. Just to log into my game and not see them at all, I can't even get my outfits, etc., to show up. If the failed game pop up doesn't show up my CC doesn't show up. This has been goin on for 4 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Solved323Views2likes7Comments[mod-related, pre-1.122 hotfix] Actions not appearing
My game just auto-updated and now I can't click anything to create an action. It highlights the object in question, but when I click it, no actions appear and I am unable to select anything for my Sims to do. I tested with mouse and with track pad, also tried right-clicking, nothing works. - edited title for clarity; see "Solution" post - LuthSolved1.3KViews14likes43Comments
