Issues related to either CL or Toddlers patch

Subject: Issues related to either CL or Toddlers patch Sat Jan 14, 2017 2:12 pm

There are a few issues that I as well as other players have encountered either with the Toddler patch (January 12, 2017) or with City Living. If you are having any of these issues there are threads already started over at EA Answers HQ. If you are having any of the issues sign in and select the "Me too" button.

1) Sims (child only that I'm aware of) using the vanity table when not at the vanity table. (see photo below) http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/TO-ADD-Children-and-make-up-table/m-p/5820716#U5820716

2) Sims standing while watching TV or eating in front of refrigerator. ~~**No thread at EA Answers HQ has been started yet, if you are having this issue you can state "me to" over on the official forum at this thread. **~~ There is a thread started at EA Answers HQ:
http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/OPEN-Sims-don-t-try-to-sit-down-when-playing-games-or-watching/m-p/5819918#U5819918

3) This is an ongoing issue with a thread over at EA Answers HQ: Sims will constantly pick up object (food, books, dishes) to put away, clean up and will sit down then stand up to finish requested task. http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/OPEN-Routing-Sit-down-issue-on-several-interactions/m-p/4553170#M13174

4) [Unsure if this is a bug or not, will be watching to see if other players have the same problem.] Toddler sims constantly waking up with sad or very sad moodlet due to nightmare.
****According to this thread, traits and thinking skill may be the culprits to the ongoing nightmare phenomenon. Hope the dev team will fix that! I've tried using coffee and bought the espresso maker and nothing helps with the lack of sleep my adult sims are experiencing. I think they will be happy when these two grow up! LOL ***EDIT: There appears to be some truth to the trait and skill level of Thinking in toddlers. Last night my female toddler was at level 1 in the Thinking skill and she does have the Charmer trait. When she leveled up to level 2 of the Thinking skill, the nightmares have seemed to lessen a bit. She was able to sleep the whole night through for 3 nights! Woohoo! cheers

As she progresses through the levels I will keep this updated - unless they happen to whip out a patch before then. giggle

My male toddler (the twin) has the Wild trait and he is at level 1 Thinking skill but his nightmares have lessened and he hasn't woke up from them as often as the girl. ***

I am playing a save that was before the patch.

My toddler was born in game.....and she is so very cute! I am in love with her but I can not get her to bed.

I've tried to have her go to bed by herself, had others try to put her to bed, had others try to read her to sleep,all by ticking on the actual bed. This is not the car bed but the other choice.

I've tried having my toddler ask to be put to bed. I've had others tick on the toddler to put her to bed.

Every time these actions are dropped.

The poor darling passed out on the floor....even took a nap on her freezer bunny chair.

I finally got an adult sibling to put her to bed and then guess what????? Everyone froze....time froze....had to quit with task manager.

Boooooooooooooooo.....

I am repairing the game......again, sigh.....and will see what happens.

@Buttonsginger, if repairing your game through Origin doesn't fix it, try this:

1) Pull your saves, tray and mods (if you use this one) out of your game and place in a different area other than Documents (rename it to old or backup or whatever.
2) Launch your game then exit.
3)Open up your new game created folder and open up your old/backup/whatever folder, open up your saves - highlight all and copy and paste into the new game folder. Repeat with the tray folder and mods folder (if applicable). **Note: in the "old" mods folder DO NOT copy over the "resource.cfg"! The game will have replaced with a new one)
4) Launch your game again to see if the problems still exist.

Success!

Thank you MJ! I will do this if the save acts up again Heart

Yay! Woohoo! cheers

My male teen voice was a very high female voice after aging up from toddler.

The fix is to use testingcheats true / cas.fulleditmode

Male toddlers/children continues with a sweet voice after grow up

Oh, I hope I don't get that one! Have enough trouble with the Sim going from one end of their house to the other then back to complete an action/chore. And the delays before they will start an action are maddening. I am not in favor of wasted time.

I have different issues as you can see:

Bibi is swimming in the grass (the water next to her is a fountain)

Here is my simself in Murkland Hot Springs. She melts into the stone

And here she's invisible

Am I the only one with these issues? My mods and CC are all updated.

Here's a link I found for a swimming through land issue.

Swimming through land

The Murkland Hot Springs hot tubs were most likely built with MOO and the rocks were probably enlarged. I believe that is why your sims self is melting into the rocks.

The only thing I found on the invisible sims it if they travel in a rocket ship they can come back invisible

Sims become invisible

Here's a list of complied Bugs & Gameplay issues on the official forum that may help you.
