Not to keep beating a dead horse, but I'm getting really tired of sims freezing to death because they are to slow to stay in winter wear when it's cold outside. I really wish they would find a fix for this ASAP and patch it in.
I just had to exit without saving because 2 of my other playable sims just froze to death.

Also, anyone else having this issue still I did find a mod that will (hopefully) address the issue until we (hopefully) get a fix for it: Sims change outfit when hot or cold: https://www.deichschafblog.de/s4/mods-fuer-jahreszeiten/, it's a bit down on the page but I just plopped it into my game. Hoping that it works!

Cool! I'll post over there as well. And there seems to be quit a few who are still having this issue. I also reported my issue to the gurus on twitter a few months ago. Also, side note. After the most recent patch, when I load up my game and come to the main loading screen. I get a pop up saying that there is no cd located. Yet I have a digital copy. Has that happened to anyone else?
Yup, I can use that option, but the fact is I thought sims were supposed to be smart enough to know that they are cold, switch into winter clothing. lol I guess in my game they aren't.
Also, if you aren't apposed to mods, I believe Little Ms Sam has a mod that stops your sims from wearing the winter outerwear indoors when the heat is on. I'm like 95% sure it's by her. lol I have it in my game and it works.
Same here. Not having the issue since the fix.

You can turn off weather affecting your sims in the settings panel under seasons. Then you can have all the aesthetics of the weather without the extreme temperatures killing your sims.
I for one see the possibility of weather related death as a feature not a bug because I find this game to be sorely lacking in any spontenaity whatsoever. It's virtually guaranteed 99.9% of the time that unless an action is forced your sim whether CAS created or born in game will live to be very very very old and die of old age only on the floor. It's boring. I wish we had more possibilities of dangerous consequences and that the devs would stop nerfing the ones we do have. JMO
Okay, so, you don't want your Sims to die in your game from extreme weather, and you can literally turn it off for yourself but, you reject that out of hand and want the devs to turn it off for everyone via a path? It doesn't even make any sense.
Hmmmm.... never said that. So please don't put words in my mouth. Thanks! Instead of assuming what someone said or meant, why not just ask them to clarify their statement before jumping to conclusions?
Never have I ever wanted to devs to take away a feature in the game.
What needs to be improved is the sims AI. So that they can recognize when they are cold or about to freeze, so that they will switch out of their workout wear and into their winter wear.
This has not happened for me in a looong time. Do you have any mods?
I like to build stuff
That said, I avoid places like the Star Lounge during winter because I realize it would probably cause issues.
I also had another weird bug before reinstalling the game: Twice in a warm area (Oasis Springs in Spring) a Sim would come into a bar (once) and into a gym (once) blueskinned from freezing (despite the temperature outside was just chilly, not freezing), turn into an ice block and die indoors. I have no mods to speak of (at the time I only had MCCC).
You didn't get the Grimm music or the "see what is happening" icon in the action list? Every time Grimm shows up in my game I get both those things.
