Don't know if this is a feature but when I give sims a second outfit the outfits are not locked in as the wear until I change it. For example, I gave my pregnant sim something more fitting for her maternity because her original outfit bugged me but when I have her go off the home lot, she is in the original outfit I just changed her from. Everyone have a second outfit and they are changing to all types of wear when they don't have to.

Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

I just made a new family, had a baby...all was going great until I had my guy go for a run, now his hygiene is orange and no amount of showers, baths, or brushing of his teeth will fix it and its making his wife angry! I tried to debug him/reset him, it doesn't do anything except move him 2 feet.
Using no mods, no CC beyond lots/rooms from the gallery, Win 7 64 bit, DVD.
Since it seemed a bit uncertain, I'm seconding the issue with songwriting on the guitar. It doesn't always happen to me so it's difficult to reproduce, but sometimes when my musical sim is composing a new song on the guitar, cancelling won't actually stop her. She'll keep playing with a crossed out icon in her action box (forget what the game called that area, sorry). Doing a resetsim on her did get her to stop so I didn't need to try moving her family out or anything.
When your in cameraman mode you can't pause the game with the p button or unpause it if you paused it before you went into cameraman mode. I'm using the ts3 camera.
Also sims occasionally teleport off picnic tables.
Testingcheats doesn't work when your in neighborhood view before you go into the game and in game it stops working when you go on a community lot. Also there is no way for us to adjust the relationship and need sliders anymore unless we use the mailbox cheat and those are useless on a community lot.
Apparently there is no way to add ceilings as I tried. The premade houses don't have them.
First of all, I am not using mods nor custom content. My OS is Windows 7 64 bits, I've got a digital copy from Origin.
-When in Magnolia Blossom Park I tried to edit the lot pressing the Building Mode button, it triggered the music but I was still on Live Mode. The music didn't go away until the song ended.
-Sometimes in CAS , pressing the undo button won't reverse certain modifications.

What i have found to work for sims with grey menus is to click on the two people icon over the briefcase icon on the Sims icon and click leave work early
@catloverplayer - When you are in cameraman mode, to pause and unpause the game, use the key with the little wavy line (with the accent mark underneath it). It's in the upper left-hand corner of your keyboard, right under the escape key.
My sims has a skill progress bar over her head that will not go away. Appeared to happen while watching cooking show and talking on phone at the same time.
Using brand new PC with windows 8... No mods or custom content.
Whenever my Sim talks to another Sim, the person she's talking to disappears (that or they have an invisibility cloak). She still converses with them, I just can't see them or make her interact with them once they've disappeared.
I'm a WoW playing, Doctor Who watching, Harry Potter reading, fan fiction writing simmer who is without a doubt a geek (and sometimes a super hero).
@Simsfreakmaniac: Are you using custom content ? What are your basic specs ?
Dell XPS 15Z Laptop
i5 2.4GHz
6G RAM
Win 7 Home Premium
Nvidia GT 525M
Origin version/vanilla game
Upon starting the game, the specs were set as low but I increased it to medium. Didn't experience any ill effect from that a part from the deformed jogging townie and only saw that once during a four hour play session. I'll reset to low and see if I encounter it again
Are you using mods? No
Are you using custom content? No
What is your Operating System? Windows 8.1
Do you have the download or DVD Version of the game? Digital download
The problems I have experienced so far are:
Even when you put lots of lights in a home, Sims stay relatively dark compared to the walls or furniture (see this picture)
Pregnant Sims showing almost instantly (Right after I took the pregnancy test that I took right after Trying for Baby)
Forks stuck in hands well after the Sim was done eating
Showers still running and neither having a Sim use it nor buying a new one fixed it
Sims that are sitting on the couch all of a sudden appear in the middle of the room (standing up)
I saw that too. Unsure at this point if it's a bug. Added you though
Try resetting or taking to the dresser. I've added the issue
Did you try replacing the wall behind it ?
Just one Sim or did all of them reset ? I saw a complete reset in my game where all were suddenly standing next to their chair. I think the game auto-reset something because of a problem so if it's an isolated incident, I won't add yet
My specs are:
Windows 8.1 64-bit
AMD A-10 4600M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics ~2.3 GHz
AMD Radeon HD 7660G (0x9900) (has 3 GB of memory)
6GB RAM
By default the game put me on Medium settings and I tried to fix the lighting problem by putting Lighting on High but it didn't help. And on the last point, it was only one Sim, not all.
By the way, I found a new bug. I'm playing a 6-people household and I send one to the gym at around 4 AM and leave everyone else at home asleep. Once I'm at the gym, the icons of everyone back at home are gray and "Fine", and I knew this wasn't right because one of those Sims I left back at home was VERY sleepy and VERY hungry. Anyway, when I got back to the house, everyone was out of their beds and in the front of the house (and STILL sleepy and hungry!), like when you first load a new household.
> @Esseilte said: > No CC, no mods > I put food away in the fridge, but there isn't an option to eat leftover.
@Esseilte You have to click on the refrigerator, click open and there you will see leftovers. You can then click on the leftover and select your option.
My sim also has a Skill progress bar stuck above the head, she got it when she was talking and sitting on the sofa with a friend.... And it won't go away still there even when she sleeps or does new tasks....
Using the DvD Version NO Mods or CC Desktop Computer Windows 7 64bit, Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz ( 4CPUs ), ~2.7GHz, 8192MB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 4650
Edit* So upon doing something else that is skill based, it switches to that skill progress bar but then once completed it goes back to the full skill progress bar that won't go away and stays there with any activity.... *sigh*
FIXED~ So I saved my Game and exited the game and then reloaded my game up, and the skill bar is now gone!... Annoying it was nonetheless~

I have found that when I take my sims on a on a date to the public park in Willow Creek they keep cancelling their actions and try to go back home.
The bug I have is with my third floor walls. I repeatedly get a wall doesn't exist message and can not add any walls to the third floor, but I can place items, wall papers, and windows.

@vancanuckfan86: On the list
@MeldisElvellon: Added although resolved
@ts3seml
@SimSassybree: Added your first issue. Did you try resetting the sim for your second one ?
@mem1989: I don't have a solution at this point. Sorry
@ts3seml: Ok. Thanks
@PuddinsPet: Not sure what's up with that yet but there might be some kind of auto-reset feature if a Sim is bugged. Put on list to investigate
@Aiasa: Stupid maid. She seems full of bugs. Does she still come ? Not sure what you could to. Maybe switch houses ?
@Gothfortune: Try adding a link with spaces between the . whatever. Maybe that works. Pics would be good
@OblvionIV: Could you upload your savegame somewhere and PM me the link ?
@Simlisha: On the list

Sims wouldn't clean up plates. They would pick it up and then put it back down.

2. A friend of mine can't even launch the game, it just shows his mouse loading for two seconds; then NOTHING.
3. Sims leave the shower and there's a pretty long delay before their clothes reappear again!
