    Lost the option to Livestream on the computer?

    in The Sims 4 General Discussion
    Ever since I moved my sim to a new house, whenever I click on the computer and "Play games" I've lost the option to live stream. I've searched through all other tabs and still don't see it. Was wondering if anyone could help me?

      I have yet to find that option myself. I looked for it recently for my computer geek Sim and could not find it. Not sure if that was before or after the latest patch though.

      Is your sim in the Tech Guru career? That's what they have to be in to do the live streaming.

      Yes, mine is, maybe it's buried somewhere that I am not seeing? He keeps wanting to livestream but I haven't found the option to fulfill that.

      I started a new game where my sim made a living through doing livestream. When I loaded it yesterday she wasn't able to do it anymore but it was fine before. This might be a glitch :(.

      My sim was able to do livestream and she wasn't in the Tech Guru career. Might be a glitch since the option vanished for me as well.

      That's weird, must have been because they need to currently be in that career to do it. I had a sim that was in the tech guru career then had him quit without realizing I needed him to stay so he could still do livestreaming to fulfill his aspiration. So I had him rejoin and it was available again.

      Just checked my game and I'm wrong. I have 2 sims that play video games and one is a Tech Guru so I had them mixed up. The one I made recently was making money off of tournaments not doing live streams, sorry! It was the Tech Guru that was doing live streams so yup you probably have to be on that career.

      Pretty sure you not only have to be a TechGuru but also in the E-gamer branch to have this option.
