Shiny Sims What to do??
Hi everyone I’ve been dealing with a very frustrating issue in The Sims 4 where some of my Sims suddenly get a shiny / plastic looking effect on their entire body/Face. What makes this especially confusing is that the effect seems to come and go randomly depending on zoom level, camera angle, lighting, or sometimes for no obvious reason at all. What I’ve already tried: Removed all broken / red CC that Tray Importer listed me Removed all makeup, jewelry, and accessories one by one for testing No skin overlays are applied on the particular sim Cleared cache multiple times (localthumbcache.package, etc.) Adjusted graphics settings (post processing on/off) Better Exceptions reports no errors The worst part ist it is completely random sometimes it appears after an hour sometimes 2 minute after i reloaded the save, Sometimes not always it appears and disappear when zooming in and out So what should i do? i have over 7000 CC tried the 50/50 method but since this bug appears randomly it's very hard to figure it out also i have 20 families in my neighbourhood it might be that the shiney effect on them is triggered by something else then the sim before them this....
Not sure what kind of issue this is...
Hi! I'm not sure where to post this question. I cleaned up my mods and cc's after the update and reintroduced them all, on by one, back into my game. My game was running fine for the past ten days or so. My game was running fine yesterday. This morning, I turned my game on and a notification popped up saying "Turn Off Auto-scaling with OS Setting?". The two options to select are "Keep Current Settings" or "Turn Off Auto-Scaling (Recommended)". Now when I select "Keep Current Settings" the game wont load fully. It starts to load, and then it stops just before getting to the main menu. If I choose "Turn Off Auto-Scaling" I get a notification stating "Unrecognized Video Card". Can anyone help me figure this out? The game loads to the point of where I can see the green Sims emblem, with the info below that. Then the green emblem disappears, and only the info stays. Then the screen doesn't load past that.Sims initiate certain interactions regardless of autonomy
Hmmm.. I have a similar issue but it's really not Buisnesses and hobby specific. I Do have mods installed and i set automation in a specific way. A very annoying example is my sims autonomously woohooing in public even though i specifically turned off every autonomous woohooing. But it's not just with woohooing, that one is just the most noticable especially since i'm in historical gameplay. I still have to re-check all of my mods settings to try and understand if it's a me problem, a mod problem or a game problem. But i wanted to aknowledge the post.
Me devuelve a gestionar mundos cuando intento jugar
Buenas! Vi que había un hilo abierto con el mismo problema pero es de hace bastante y he tenido que abrir uno nuevo. Básicamente, cuando intento seguir jugando con mi partida me lleva a gestionar mundos, intento jugar en cualquier solar que tenía activo (ya que tengo varias unidades domésticas en esa partida) y me devuelve a gestionar mundos pero no aparece ningún mensaje de error ni nada. He probado también con otra partida donde solo tengo 1 unidad doméstica activa y directamente me deja en la pantalla de carga. He probado todas las soluciones que he visto en foros como reddit o este foro y nada me funciona: he borrado los mods de script, he borrado el caché y he "reinstalado" el juego (osea he movido la carpeta de los sims fuera de la carpeta de EA para que al abrir el juego se copie una carpeta completamente nueva como si fuera el juego de nuevas). Lo único que tengo que admitir es que no he probado jugar el juego "nuevo" vanilla ya que en cuanto se hacía la nueva copia metía las carpetas antiguas de mods y save (ya que lo que quiero es seguir jugando mis partidas anteriores). Alguien más tiene este problema? Sabéis cómo solucionarlo? Muchas gracias :(

Sim droht zu erfrieren, obwohl es draußen warm ist
Der Bug tritt seit gestern auf. Immer, wenn ich den Haushalt lade (nach CAS, Welten verwalten, etc.) hat einer meiner gespielten Sims das Moodlet, dass er erfriert und ist blau, obwohl es draußen warm ist. Seine ganze Familie läuft in ihren Outfits für warmes Wetter herum und es passiert nichts. Es betrifft nur den einen Sim. Egal welche Kleidung er trägt. Immer, nachdem der Haushalt geladen wird, ist das Moodlet da und es erscheint die Warnung, dass er zu erfrieren droht, sollte er nichts wärmeres anziehen oder nach drinnen gehen. Aber auch wenn ich ihm das Outfit für kaltes Wetter anziehe, bleibt er blau und auch drinnen bekommt er trotz eines Thermostats dieses Moodlet. Ich habe ihn auch schon einmal zurückgesetzt und plötzlich war er tot... Habe dann nicht gespeichert. Ich benutze Mods und CC, aber dieses Problem gab es vorher noch nicht. Auch das Reparieren des Spiels über die EA App hat das Problem leider nicht beseitigt.Can’t get career mod to work
I had recently reached out to Nika_Is_Nika because her Career of the Ages mod wasn’t working. She went and updated it, but for some reason I still can’t get it to work. Now when I add it to my game and load it, it goes to the world selector. Can anyone see if it works for them. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or not. Thanks! Career of the Ages
