I think this is a common issue every time a new EP and patch comes out.
So far, every time I’ve installed a new EP & patch something goes wrong with prior, saved games. Once I started a new game everything would appear to be working as it should be.
It’s the BIG thing I dread every time a new EP comes out, losing months of hard work and families I’ve worked generation after generation lost. Copying them over into a new game is just not the same since they lose so much like family and friend relationships.
Anyway, since this has happened to me each time I get the idea that games saved prior to any EP are not compatible to new EP’s, but that’s my opinion.
I learned that the hard way with Ambitions. I guess I won't be able to do the "Lifetime" game I wanted to do until the franchise pumps out their very last EP/SP. Maybe then I can actually play one of those legacies that require more than 8 Generations like the Alphabet Legacy.
@elijahhines10: Just to get it straight: When you do this in CAS in the beginning of the game, body hair works fine but when you use the cheat, it doesn't ? Is your base game still patched to 1.22 or did you revert that ?
Guess Family Trees are STILL broken. :roll: They claim they fixed this WA bug a long time ago, but mine still break whenever I go on vacation to a WA world.
Looks like Generations breaks the Family Tree as well.
Welp, here's hoping the Release Day Patch actually fixes things rather than breaks things. It should be interesting to see the list of fixes and broken features when the patch populates enough players' games.
I doubt the release day patch will fix any Generations glitches though...
How come the patch didn't come with Generations in the first place...?
@Jenieusa: Wasn't that always like that, that you loose the connection to your dead husband ? Sorry, I've not been playing a lot lately. When you don't have any kids, you never know who you were married to in the first place. I'm really unsure about this though.
@ZeekSlider: Could you do me a favor and stop with all the negativity ? We really don't know what patch we are getting yet and what is fixed and what is not. You are welcome to post any bugs YOU see but I don't want any hearsays because I will need the info from the person that actually has the problem.
@JohanFoppa: We really don't know yet what patch we are getting. They usually do include it but maybe they made some last-minute fixes and we get 1.22 as the one that leaked. 1.21 IS included on the DVD-
I only have had limited game play time this morning, but my family I loaded up was missing their butler. I had to hire a new one. No biggie, just wanted to report it, it's easy enough to hire a new one, bummer to lose the friendship thou w/ old one.
will report back after I check some more households.

Did your butler just quit and you didn't get the notice or was this one of those "He was there last time I played my saved game, but now he's not" scenarios? You can tell if they quit because you still maintain their friendship.
I just start playing, my game was: 7.0.55.010017 now it is 8.0.152.01101 the problem that i have got was (sorry for my english) the message about shop and other bulding don't show on the town view. So I have to look over for all stuff. If i saw some bugs or fixes I will not you guys. maybe it was becouse I play afther instaling. I hope it was only this :oops:

No. When a spouse or family member died, they don't lose the connection in their family tree. The icon just grays out to show they have passed on. Before WA, this was a great way to trace back a legacy to the original character, as all you had to do was keep clicking on the parent to get the previous generation.
What should have happened in the picture is that the wife should have had a connection link to a grayed out picture of the husband. If she re-married, she would still have that link, but it would be one of those "dotted" links similar to the one in the second picture that the brothers have.
At least, that's how it worked in my last multi-generation legacy game I had before I deleted it.

AFAIK this is the normal behaviour. On death of one spouse their marital state ends. Otherwise the widow or widower would not be able to perhaps marry again, because there's no or at least no easy way for them to break up with a dead husband. In the beginning it was even that their status changed to ex-wife or ex-husband and they hated each other, too. I know this because I have a mod that changes this hate thing. As I've used that mod ever since, I don't know, however, whether, this hate-hate relationship is still in the vanilla game.
Edit: At least my pre-Generations, 1.19 patch family trees look exactly like that, if one parent is dead both can only be seen when I click on the child's tree.

I think its just a glitch on that family, he is no longer in their relationship panel.
In another neighborhood my family still has their butler. So most likely it's just a random glitch on my other family.
Ha, new butler is cuter and my sim is single, might be time to test out the new wedding features.
Oh also, there are no romantic interactions... As said I have no mods in only CC items
And sims talk to themselves ECESSIVELY. When I go to the park it sound like the army of the living dead... There are grunts and unnngghhs and uhhhhs and everything .___.
Also they can't seem to think for themselves. There were like 7 starving sims outside a restaurant, and instead of going into it and eating, 2 of them died -___-
So. Many. Problems.

Is this on an exisiting game or a new game?
If it is on an exisiting one, try starting a new game and see if these problems pop up again.
Did that happen because she is not in mourning anymore????
Being in mourning doesn't matter in relation to the family tree. It only affects the moodlet. The family tree is just the personal relationship history for that Sim in relation to the entire family legacy.

For the "bug" Jenieusa is having : they lose their connection to the dead spouse in order to get re-maried... It has always been like this. I don't think it's a bug...

It has alwasys been like that
Are you sure you didn't have a mod that changed it:?:
Last year, I had my sims husband die, and he was no longer connected to her as a spouse:P
You could only see him by going to the childs family tree.
Comments
Yep:)
I also still have patch 1.22
Looks like Generations breaks the Family Tree as well.

3. Yep, I removed all my mods
4. All
5. Well the latest one...
6. Windows 7, Enough RAM, ATI Radeon 4200
7. Playing existing one
My "Having a blast" moodlets and "Having Fun" moodlets only last 50 seconds
Also my zoom barely works. My game is very quick otherwise, but the zoom takes FOREVER.
