The lastest update messed up a lot of things in my game, I dont appreciate it after all the effort and time I put forth to build such a lovely community. The tiny house nonsense also is really bad. Who ever did this whole update really had no appreciation of the game. Heads should roll.

Man I swear this patch has changed there AI they all seem sluggish now they all wait like 10 seconds before doing anything some times I have to tell them to do things multiple times and the only dlc I have is city living, vampires, and jobs.

I’m having an issue since the release of Eco Lifestyle that my kids won’t go to school and adults won’t go to work. The ‘Go to school/work’ button doesn’t do anything and now my sims performance is affected. Help!!

I think you have to set the ‘reduce and recycle’ lot trait on your lot for it to generate recycling.

The Sharing is Caring NAP would of been better if the random Sims ask: “Hey, you don’t need this anymore, right?” then you could select a Yes/No option before they “Borrow” your stuff. Or even better just disable the whole NAP option completely.

The gameplay is a mess. Autonomously baking cakes and playing with clay has been turned up to max, I hope they release a patch to turn down the amount of cakes and clay they make.

After the patch, all my roofs have disappeared. Can only see the “wall” part of the roof and the roof trims. And this happened in all my save games. Adding or removing the current roof doesn’t make a difference.

My game is extremely broken after the last update. I can’t get into create a sim when I start a new game. It freezes and all I can do is exit. Base game worlds have completely disappeared. The bubble for Willow Creek and Oasis Spring are gone. I can’t load any families. When I click play I go in and all my sims aren’t there, just their plumbobs and they don’t load in CAS. none of this happened until the last update. 🙁

It could be because your NAP is sharing is caring or that sims there had the recycle disciple trait I think.

Aria

Yes I am! I am playing on ps4 and it lags so bad sometimes to the point where it is unplayable, then My sim keeps reacting to disgust to EVERYONE which cancels her doing the things I asked, it’s so annoying!! Also she will go off do something but it doesn’t come up in the bubble so I can’t stop her or make her come back, I download a load of the packs on sale too, sort of wish I hadn’t, as I spent all that money and now can’t play it properly, I don’t have any issues with any other game so it’s definitely the sims game itself and not my ps4, and I have found lots of issues in forums which back date like 3 years ago! This game needs sorting out badly! Oh and I have no cheats on either. I have re built my ps4, cleared the catche, deleted and re installed the game and none of that helps

My sims were getting on my damn nerves yesterday. I was playing the Pleasant view family (re-made versions) and all they did was bake wedding cake. Bloody wedding cake!!! This was all over the house, mixing bowls and cake ingredients everywhere. They did their usual crap like go to work and wicked whim all over the place lol but whenever it’s time to cook a meal the bloody mixing bowl came out and a wedding cake was made…..annoying!!!! Then I moved Lilith out to go live with Dirk and guess what her first frigging meal was that she cooked?? I’m going to kill her if it continues LOOOL. It’s only her and the rest of the Pleasant family that do this. If this continues I’m going to drown the whole effing family. Point is this didn’t happen before the update but like I said it’s only THIS household. Apart from that everything else works just fine.

Sorry for the rant lol

Happy Simming!!!

Isla

I’ve been wondering about that! After starting the community lot w/ the landfill trait, it seems literally every sim has clay, and about 3 pieces of clay in their inventory. I used Scumbumbo’s autonomy scan through MCCC to disable autonomously playing with clay.

My sim constantly pulls a lump of clay and a future cube out of nowhere no matter how many times I delete then from his inventory. I think he found them at the Goths house but now I’m cursed with them

Has there been any answer for the ‘clay’ issue. I have it, too. No matter how many times I sell them, they reappear & the sim plays with them autonomously. Also, that same sim keeps randomly pulling out this HUGE tablet that I’ve never seen before & scribbling like he’s checking off tasks. AND all my sims seem to randomly be autonomous although autonomy is off. What’s up with this? Any feedback?

My whole game legit broke. Sims hair and clothes would just randomly disappear, and the sims would glitch out just doing everyday take like using the computer or interacting with other sims. The sims would do that “I can’t go there interaction” when I told them to go sit somewhere that they should quite clearly be able to sit at. I thought it might’ve been mccommand center (it’s the only mod I have in my game) so I tried running it without mcc and it still had all of the bugs. Why did it do this??? Everything ran so well before.
