Prep Tasks not Appearing (Get Famous)

[KeiranGold]

Me too.  With and without mods, my tasks only would appear if I pulled up the tab.  It's happening for other careers, too, though--not just the acting career.

It's been happening to me that once my sim attempts to "choose" a gig the program glitches and suddenly everything about the acting career completely vanishes. My sim can "cancel" her gig and pick a new one but then it all happens again. The game treats it like she is not even employed.

@KERRYKELLY123 Your issues sounds more like this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-GF-Looking-for-Audition-cancels-can-t-go-to-auditions/m-p...

Is your game all updated ?

[KERRYKELLY123]

Yes my game is updated...I also do have mods but instead of removing every single one I was hoping someone might know of a mod or particular mod(s) that are known to interfere with the Actor career. Usually when I've experienced glitches like this it turns out to not be mods after all.

@KERRYKELLY123 Is your issue the one above though ? This thread has nothing to do with mods or the career not working properly. It's a display issue of the scrollbar not working.

Bug reporting is for vanilla games.

Not sure if the solution has been discussed here but the best work around for me has been to drag out the window so it can display everything in a bigger window, this displays everything and all of the tasks are visible and ready to complete even if the scroll bar doesn’t appear

I am also using windows. No mods or anything. I have every expansion except the island one. It was showing at first but I think it was after my second promotion it stopped showing what I need for auditions and gigs. I’m also not getting awards when I go to the award ceremony either but it keeps saying I’m being nominated.

I'm having this issue, too. I tried a complete folder refresh and game repair, as posted as the solution, but my test save's first gig has no pre-gig prep tasks, either.

This literally just happened to me now.  A couple of minutes ago, it was working.  Now I can’t see the tasks.
