    Sims/Pets don’t age with birthday cake/ age-up treat

    November 13, 2020 /

    Problem It’s my Sims birthday and he wants to blow out the candles on the cake. After blowing out the candles the Sim doesn’t age. He just teleports a few meters and goes about his business. I gave my pet a age-up treat but it doesn’t age up. Cause Unclear. Not all Sims seem affected. In my own tests it worked when placing the cake outside on a table but not inside on islands or counters. Reports vary a lot.

    August 7, 2020 /

    Problem My Sim travels to another lot and everything I’ve newly added to my inventory is being removed. My Sim travels to another lot and everything I’ve deleted from my inventory is back.

    New Highlight resets itself

    January 21, 2020 /

    Problem I clicked on all the new things and they are not being shown as new anymore but as soon as I change to a different category and back, the highlights are also back.

Start the game to recreate the file By deleting the file, all new highlights will be set back and you need to click on everything again. This time it should stick though. If you don’t want to click on every object/clothing, you can also use this method to remove all the…

    Unwanted Visitors

    July 16, 2019 /

    Problem I had a party in Sulani but now the visitors won’t leave or came without being invited. The Option Ask to leave is missing. NPCs, mostly vendors, just walz through my house I have a yard sale and now people are flocking into my house People just enter my house and never leave Cause Sulani is a very hospitable world. There are also scenarios where they help you put out fires. Just seems, it’s not working as intended. Why the option is missing, is unclear. Vendors and other NPCs can spawn through fireplaces.

    Wrong Lot Type for Residential Lots

    June 19, 2019 /

    Problem In my existing save a lot of residential lots show as incomplete commercial lots. I can play the family anyways. Cause Patch 1.52.100 shows lots who’s lot type has been changed from commercial to residential in the past in the original lot type. This seems to only be a display error on the map. Solution You can fix the lots with a few easy steps but you need to do it for each faulty lot. Create a backup of your save in case anything goes wrong. Go to map view and click on the faulty lot Click on the…
