[RL] Sims changes Dynasties/Constant message after loading
After tonight’s update (12.05.2026) Sims who doesn’t belong to certain dynasties but have some connection to them keep adding even after I try to manually delete them. It goes on and on. Once I leave one family enter another to fix it, it happens again. Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title
[S] Can't ask for presents from Father Winter (After Patch 1.119.109)
My sims aren't able to ask for presents from Father Winter. They're young adults, teens or children but the "ask" options isn't available. I've had this problem on and off for a long time. I don't have any mods or cc in my game. Edit By crinrict: Added pack tag to title.
[AA] Getaways Automatically End Before Starting/too early
Hello! New here but I have been playing sims for years. I downloaded Adventure Awaits yesterday and I have an issue with kids camps specifically. Fitness retreats work fine, but as soon as my sim arrives at kids camp it comes up with the ‘your getaway is ending do you want to extend or go home’ pop up. If I press extend it just comes straight back up again. I have tried different set ups, locations, sims etc. I have repaired and restarted my game but it’s not working. does anyone else have this issue? I play on a windows laptop and have no mods or cc.

You guys really need to fix the occult packs, specifically the werewolf pack. Not only have you not fixed the nose colours which are still glitched by the way but now there’s another glitch which I just discovered yesterday. After having my sim get bitten by a werewolf and this is what happened during her first transformation. All the other townie werewolf’s are fine, but this happened in game and also in CAS. Please fix the werewolf pack, it’s been bugged out for way too long. I play on PS5 and don’t use mods or cc obviously but I’m not the only person this has happened to.

Hi and welcome to my return to sim story writing! I am doing my rendition of rosannatxt's "Pack Legacy Challenge." Below are links to Rosannatxt's Challenge and my story respectively. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Simming! I'm back after a hiatus! Generation two will be done rotation-style and in each of the three Grove sibling's perspectives. Enjoy! Pack Legacy Rules and Guidelines James Turner Disable Packs Tool ------------------------------------ To start: The Grove Legacy: Humble Beginnings Ch. 1 Current Chapter: Harper 2.5 Note: Rotation is Fisher, Hazel, Harper and Liam Goth *Exception-the story gets a bit out of order rotationally starting with Harper and Hazel at chapter 2.3. However, the story is syntactically correct.
Infants not falling asleep in crib (try go night night)
Since the new update, I've checked in with all of my sim homes with infants (3) and all of them who were in bed, sleeping, were found sitting up, awake. This happens all the time with the toddler sims, but as soon as you unpause the game, the toddlers lie back down and fall asleep immediately. However, I had to tell the infants to 'try to go night night.' Also, I purchased the new infant play mat for all 3 households and now the infants will not fall asleep in their cribs when they're put down - fed with clean diapers, energy down to about half, etc., all ready for bed. I'm having to tell them to 'try to go night night' even though the 'action' says they are trying. I get a warning about putting the infant down for a nap, but they have been, they're just not falling asleep like they used to. They do usually have a cry, and the parent soothes them, but this is different. They are in 'happy' mode and are just not falling asleep. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title to better reflect the issue
[S] Ice Proof Sim freeze to death/get chilled moodlet (Patch 1.120.140)
In general I've seen an uptick of played Sims being auto-killed by the system. This rarely happened before getting the Life and Death package. In my current game, while playing the same household across , I've had 4 deaths of my played Sims in, I'd say less than a week of playing time. The first two were played sims that were not active. The last two, within two days at the most, were with an active Sim freezing to death. This Sim has ALL the cold weather attributes including one that says he won't be adversely affected bye cold / freezing weather (I'm paraphrasing). I can't remember the details of the first, but the system gives no way to prevent this from happening. The latest, the Sim returned home from work and joined his partner who was already celebrating with a group at the bar. I saw the Sim arrive, in normal color, almost immediately I clicked him to make an action and he was blue. My instinctual action was to have him walk to the bar so he was inside. I saw he was headed to the fire to warm up. I quickly canceled the current request and clicked on him to complete warming at the fire, and found he was automatically walking back outside to the cold! It was like I was fighting a no win battle against the system. What I would expect would include any one or combination of the following. he'd automatically put on appropriate cold weather clothes when traveling to a colder climate. His traits would kick in so he'd enjoy the cold weather vs freezing. If my Sim didn't have these traits, or not specifically the freezing one, I'd expect a Sim might occasionally freeze to death but not unless I left him out in the cold for a long time; like at an event without out appropriate clothing, or on a long jog in freezing weather. Alternately, in that last scenario, I immediately brought him into action inside the bar when brought to the location, or quickly changed into cold weather clothes, the sim would warm up and not die. I realize having one of your played Sims turn into a Ghost makes using the new Ghostly features more enticing, but give me a break..... Fortunately I save often to prevent losing too much game play when one of many crashes or uncontrollable deaths occur. I go back to the main menu without saving and find out where I have to live Groundhog Day. Unfortunately, we all know, there is no Groundhog Day. You never get the same options even if you could remember exactly what you did and in what order. Please check these algorithms and ensure the triggers for those rare events you force an active Sim to die adhere to safeguards the player has put into play for the Sim. Please add this to a 'One of the Most Irritating Game Play Situations' list. Not that it should matter in this instance, but I'm on a Mac. Game and Mac fully updated. No mods now or ever.

Since downloading the latest update, my sims can only order books that they already own. This is true whether I go through their bookcases or their computer. I'm playing on Mac, if that makes a difference! I have some expansion packs but no mods or cc. I did not see this issue addressed in any of the currently active bug reports, but apologies if I've missed something!
Sim wakes up to think about other Sims (After Patch 1.124.55/2.33)
This was a mentioned fix for the May 2026 patch, but it seems to still be happening. I'm playing in a brand-new Vanilla save and my sim has started to date Paolo. Every time I send her to bed she wakes up shortly after to think about him. I happens continually which causes her energy to never get full. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title
