Known Issue: Character Values/UI for Child + Teen

More info on it here but it's a pretty big one. Basically whenever I go into UI for a child or teen, the scroll options don't work, the menu options won't show up afterwards and I have to force quit the save. So if you're playing with families/legacies, this could potentially be an issue for you.

Since that rules out most of my current saves, I'm probably just going to do an one-off challenge with a young adult and hope that I won't have the same issue in that file.

For the record, I do not nor have ever used mods or cc. This is a completely vanilla gameplay issue.

(Live footage of me setting up a new save that may or may not work).

Also if you're a bigger account, no obligation but maybe consider reblogging this for greater visibility, as it seems to be affecting quite a few players and I know that a lot of Simblr does legacy gameplay.

an update below

Edit: There was apparently a patch fix but judging by the thread, for some people this made it worse.

I will update my game and see personally what happens (confirmed: still experiencing the same issue). Also since the Parenthood Character values are what's impacting this, toddlers aren't safe either. Some people have found that disabling the Parenthood GP has resolved the issue, while others haven't. Also let's face it - legacies are a lot less fun without that pack.

For now, don't update your game [rephrasing so that it seems less rude: I would recommend not updating your game].

I also use the sims.modify_career_outfit_in_cas cheat to change their uniforms into what I think that professional would wear. For the more entrepreneurial careers it helps to have community lots your Sim can visit to work.

Does anybody actually know what causes the unremoveable CC glitch? or how to fix it even?

I took off the tattoo but it is still there and i can even apply something in the same category

Can only remove it by the undo button

EDIT thanks to @azeternasims

That was the exact issue

Some tricks to paint your animals in CAS

I won't make a tutorial because I wouldn't know where to start and honestly, it's mostly through practice that you'll improve yourself at painting. But here are a few tricks that might help you. 1. Enter the cheat code "cas. clockspeed 2" to almost pause the time in CAS. When the animal is breathing too fast it really makes it more difficult to paint details. 2. When you want to paint small details on your pet's face, click on "edit details", then double click anywhere else to exit the details painting mode without zooming out. You'll have a closer look of what you're doing. 3. Be aware that you can have a much darker black paint by pulling down the slider lower than it is set.

4. Use pictures as references. Can sound silly, but it isn't just for inspiration, it will really help you to see better where you are supposed to paint the lights. Aaand they are really important since they will give much more landforms, and therefore, realism to your animals. 5. Paint the eyelids and the nose of your pets. Trust me, they will look much more expressive and realistic. 6. You can paint thinner traits with a simple technique. First, you make the trait you want using the colour you want, usually darker than your pet's colour.

Once you've done your trait the way you want it, select the pet's base colour (white in this exemple) and draw an other trait just next to the first one. It has to be very close to erase some of it but not all.

Same here:

7. Make a hairy effect using the fur brushes. Use different ones, set them to to smallest option on the face and more or less bigger on the body, depending on the hair length. Also, you can start with a dark colour and draw lighter above. Pay attention of the orientation of your brushes; respect the hair's direction. 8. Don't hesitate to mess around with different colours and opacity. 9. Use fur brushes with a darker colour to give some shadows and landforms to your animals.

That's it, I'll update this post if I can think of anything else. I hope some of you will find it useful. Have fun ! ᵔᴥᵔ

this is embarrassing but OKAY since I lost all my cc and starting new, I still can't get Odie and the story I had planned for her out of my head... so I want to try and recreate her again as close as I can get her. BUT I can't find this skirt, or this vest accessory. I don't know if they are both cc or in a pack (skirt), but I'm at a loss. Please help if you can, let's bring her back 👽❤️

someone help me please

I haven't really been having the most fun playing lately. since the lovestruck update I haven't been able to edit my sims or change their clothes once they leave CAS, instead I get the infinite loading screen. If my game isn't in windowed fullscreen I have to restart my entire PC.

that kind of takes the fun out of it for me. Especially, when my younger generation ages up I'm not able to edit them and they’re stuck in those god awful randomized outfits and skin details and its unbearable. is anyone else having this issue?

Heyy y’all I’ve made this page just for reblogging only but here’s a quick edit I did in December 🥲

[melsie-sims]

If anyone finds a mod/fix for Sulani fishing spots not working/causing routing errors, please please please let me know! Apparently the latest patch broke them.

Also yes, this may be a spoiler for something I may be doing... or was working on.

It'll have to be scrapped if EA doesn't fix their game, cause fishing is actually necessary.

[byou-shin]

Best cutesy animations for wicked whims?

I only use wicked for the cute couple animations and i have a few but i need moreee. Can y'all recommend any? I don't want any sexy thingies, only the romantic ones.

[ethicaltreatmentofcowplants]

Um, can someone tell me what these are? The non defaults that I've circled near the bottom?

I've gone through and eliminated everything that looks overtly like non-default eyes in the contestant's cc, but I simply cannot figure out what these are called. And I can't... really edit eye shape in cas as things are xD

Edit: Aha - Lee was the culprit! Fitting, right @fl0pera? xD (I still don't know what they're called but at least I've narrowed it down to one contestant's cc folder)

Edit: Alas, Lee was not the culprit. Still searching!

It boggles the mind as to why there isn't any empty lots when you are trying to split a household in the Sims 4. 🤔 And there are empty lots, but they are not mentioned when you are splitting your sims up. And there are no other options to move an already played Sim into an empty lot.

please someone i need help 🙏

basically.. since life and death came out, my game has been unplayable. it's so laggy, it takes ages for the interaction panels to show up, and my sims stand around forever before performing actions. I don't know what to do. and I'm almost completely positive that it isn't a cc issue.

I downloaded the script mod that's supposed to fix the social bunny lag, but it didn't change my game at all. I don't know if the problem actually has to do with life and death, but it's only been an issue since it's release.

and! I can't even open ravenwood!!!!!!???

does anyone have advice on this?...reddit isn't helping me and I miss playing in live mode so much :(
