EA bug or mod glitch?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Got a few weird occurrences going on in my game and I'm curious if they are mod related or EA bugs, I know a few of them are EA bugs so I'll list them as well in case anyone else happens to have them and curious about them.

 

  • Leaf piles never disappearing - Known EA bug, why its months later and they still can't fix it, no idea.
  • Admire new possession for materialist sims. - For me, its never going away. Normally when you admire something, its gone for good for that item, but my game either on loading into the family or maybe even daily, its resetting and my sim(s) can admire to their hearts content.
  • Constantly Lovelorn - Someone said this was a EA bug.
  • Curfew/bulletin board from Parenthood - Any time a sim tries to clear the board, like remove drawings or notes the sim T Poses and resets and the board does nothing. I think it causes a lastexception error so I'll have to try it again next time I'm playing.
  • Plants for the romance festival are scattered around the courtyard. - Bunch of them don't appear in their box but instead are floating off the ground.
  • Stuck actions - every now and then a sim will get a stuck action, like "Read something" or even go to sleep. Sometimes this causes alot of issues as the sim will ignore actions in their queue, leaving the lot and returning tends to clear it.
  • A vampire is breaking in #1- On a public lot, which prevents any sim from leaving until the vampire leaves. I usually use MCC and click on all known vampires and force them to leave.
  • A vampire is breaking in #2 - on a residence. Lately none have been breaking in, they arrive, look at the front door and decide its to much work and leave.
  • ARMS DON'T BEND THAT WAY!! - A sim pets a cat, hugs another sim, or does something but the intended target is not in front of them, they face the spot in front of them and their arms shoot out in some odd direction.
  • Teleport between queued locations - Mostly say a sim is told clean up a plate or get food from the fridge, they'll oddly teleport to the spot and then to the next. Like grab a plate from the table, teleport to the sink and then resume actions. I began noticing this since Seasons.

 

Those are the ones I notice alot, I know I have more but these are the ones I see often. Anyone else see them in their games or know if they are EA or mod related? I do get a lastexception error upon loading my game and sometimes going from home to a venue and back I get a "items were not found" message box. However the lastexception log turns up unknown error and I already submitted it to Turbodriver.

-Leaf piles never disappearing/staying dirty.

-Arms don't bend that way.

-Teleport between queued location's.

Are all EA bug's.

The Vampire #2 not entering residence- I have noticed this only if all household sims are not sleeping, if they are all asleep they will enter.

I've noticed lately that even if they are all asleep, one will walk to the door, stare at it for a few in game minutes and leave, maybe because they don't have the enter residence power?

From what i have noticed, it doesn't happen all the time. but you are probably right, i just haven't tested it enough.

Another thing i noticed, is that when you have a sim go to (change sim/plan outfit's) they have no animation, ie- they used to open the drawer's and sometimes they would fall over.

They don't even open the drawer's no more, just goes to cas as soon as they are next to the drawer's.

Hmmmm what about the following?

 

- Sim was reading and stops but continues to walk around like they are holding a book. I know this happened in the past and I believe its an EA bug, but it went away for awhile and now its back 10 fold.

 

- Invisible sim roaming the neighborhood. This one is kinda funny but also creepy as hell. I play with headphones on and had a sim walking around the neighborhood one evening using the camera to follow it. I heard footsteps coming up behind me and turned the camera to nothing. The footsteps faded away but I could follow it slightly. Then during the rain I started noticing puddle splashes of a sim moving around. They never stop and interact with anything. It was odd today because I had a sim walking around the neighboorhood and for some reason a sim walked past me and it defaulted their cold weather outfit to the Jungle adventure skeleton (unlocked it and I now have it as a wearable outfit). I think she walked to the edge of the map and zoned out but never truely left, because a few minutes later I heard the bone rattle sound as it walked past me along with water splashes were its walking.

 

Heres a pic I took awhile back of what I mean, the water splash in the center is a invisible sim.

Not sure if this is what happened with you for that splash, but did a vampire run by with their vampiric  run a little before you heard or saw the splash?  I noticed when I was playing a household with 2 vampires with their vampiric run that when it rained they'd run somewhere and I swear like 10 seconds later I saw their footprints splash in the exact same pattern that they ran.  So it looked as if an invisible sim was running somewhere in the rain but it appeared to be the vampire footprints catching up to the vampire, at least in my game.

Don't think so, I don't have any vampires who have the vampiric run skill. It can happen day or night. The most recent one was when a sim walked by with the jungle adventure skin on, then the footsteps and the sound affect was heading in the opposite direction a minute later. To me it really feels like the sim moves to the edge of the neighborhood and leaves but doesn't entirely leave. Either way, not sure.

I've noticed that active sims will go invisible quite a distance now sometimes (intermittent) from the lot exit before leaving the lot after pressing the home button and not actually leave the lot and stay invisible unless you press the home button again so I'm wondering if it's happening to NPC sims as well and they are staying invisible on the lot?

Hmmm, I haven't had that issue, once my sims arrive at the exit they do vanish but mine brings me to the map screen or home if thats the case. I do notice that sims vanish for a short period before things happen. Like lot zoning, leaving/entering a zone, or starting a Wickedwhims scene. The problem with the invisible sim for me tho has been ever since Seasons and I noticed the sound affects and foot splashes, could have predated even that but never noticed it.

Animation glitch I believe.

Had another one recently, the Polar Bear Plunge event for winter, says you just need to use a outdoor pool when its cold out. I've had multiple sims trying to get it, swimming, skinny dipping, doing laps. It won't register.

Some of these are bugged...….I believe EA are aware of this.
