Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.91.186.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All EP, GP, SP, Kits
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim step out of the spotlight once you create and start the game. Pick an activity like painting and have them continue to paint and sell - they will eventually earn the first star of the celebrity system even though you set them to not earn fame at the beginning.
What happens when the bug occurs? The sim gains celebrity status even though you have stepped out of the spotlight.
What do you expect to see? Sims should not earn any celebrity status if you have chosen to not be famous.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
The workaround for this is that once they earn that first fame level, go back into the fame panel, choose step into the spotlight and then choose to step out again. It should clear the fame for the sim.
The problem is that they shouldn't be earning fame to begin with if the game recognized that they were opting out of fame.
I have not seen it reoccur after the workaround for the same sim but it does happen to every sim in the household until you do the workaround

This bug seems to have appeared again after the most recent September patch. Even when I have the box checked to toggle fame off, I still gain fame and celebrity status for selling paintings, publishing novels, etc. I have all of the expansions except for High School Years, all of the game packs except for Journey to Batuu and Wedding Stories, all of the stuff packs, and no kits.

What happens when the bug occurs? the library sim / family painting paintings, publishing books and music is enough for my sims to become famous even if this is deselected from the start and there is a check mark that I have to remove and mark again in settings

Please describe the patch or change you made. after I bought hsy and installed it and the latest update and hotfix.
Hi all
I know this has been around before where all npc's were 5 star celebrities.
I've experienced previously played families downloaded from my library gaining celebrity points just by making and selling a painting, publishing books and music they've written.
I have a check mark next to deselect famous in settings this is also shown in simology but still I have to remove it once in settings and mark deselect celebrity when I'm in game and start a new game.

i apologize very much that i didn't see your thread and that english is not my native language and everything has to be translated from dansh via bing translate and google translate.
so far, only opting out of the famous option is not seems like it should when I start a new game or switch over to another family that I have placed via edit neighborhood.
My Sims don't develop lifestyles and this attitude works fine in all my games new and old. animals that age extremely fast and as well as dogs and cat that run very strangely I have not seen any of as I have chosen that only families from cats and dogs and cottage living expansion packs can adopt pets.
another bug that I have experienced but which is a thread unto itself. it's the toddlers' really weird way of walking.
it doesn't matter if the toddlers from a gallery/biblotekt family or they've been born ingame. they walk and stomp with one foot.
like I said it's a thread unto itself and doesn't belong here. the only active and played families that become unwanted famous and that option deselect celebrity does not work from the main menu and it only works by changing the ingame.

It should do neither. I should not get a message saying she gained fame if the fame is turned off. This needs to be fixed. Off means off. It means that the game is not calculating fame for my sim.
Also, the NAP is still broken. I have it turned off and it still just default votes for the first one in the list, but I cannot vote. Off means off.
